I had a feeling this would happen when the government send out stimulus checks. We are paying for it now.

Let a Democrat explain to you why inflation is a good thing. They are either wealthy or on welfare.

Gasoline has Doubled, Food up 20%, Home Fuel cost up 33%, used cars up $6000.00, But Biden raises Social Security 5.9% ? Is it my Math or will I have to eat Lil Friskies this winter?

80 dollar oil, 6.2 percent for inflation. so what happens if oil goes to 100, what is the inflation rate?

It’s a good thing the minimum wage was never increased! Now the poor can really suffer... Greedy politicians

[Greyteam]

Oh please supply chain? The shelves are full but I can't afford half of it after I fill my tank! And my old Ford gets 25mpg and all wheel drive. Since Biden is steering us into a depression I hope it lasts forever...

[harrylazard]

Biden: "Don't worry, I'm sending Kamala Harris out to solve the inflation problem!"....

Let's go brandon! Right into a new depression.
