Prices of gas and food has been spiking way before the invasion. This is nothing new

[patsmith]

ABC, you should report the real reason for inflation. We are not stupid.

[chatterbrains]

Omg, yea let's blame it all on what's going on with Russia...like prices on everything haven't been going up the last 2 years. We only get 6.9% of our oil/gas from Russia and Ukraine. Y'all need to stop with this propaganda bull. 😂😂😂

[tinagrigg]

No no. That isn’t true the price of gas groceries. Rent clothes all went up months Before don’t. Blame War

[persephoneblack]

Inflation was happening before. I'm currently interviewing for a second job to help out my mom at home (because the house runs on oil for heat and food is really expensive). However, the way I look at it is that in the Ukraine children are dying, cancer hospitals are being fired upon, and people are losing their homes. Which means my issues here are small potatoes 🥔

[iHandleWitCare]

But gas Prices have been on the rise for months way before the war

[owenhoong]

Are you guys just going to blame everything on Ukraine and Putin?

[Kel_Rod]

Same everywhere, I am in Ireland and it's very expensive. Brazil and Poland where my family live it's also extremely expensive, it's not only USA. I cycle 10km every day. Thats a good option too.

[ItsYoYoHo]

The sellers are price gouging just because.

[stevensingleton]

We where felling the consumer prices far before this war.

[adamfowler]

America is not "now" feeling the impact of this situation...We've been crushed into more and more pieces by the week, through the entire last year. Not 1 single solitary thing has been done to help our nation the whole time.

[agustindejesus]

Food prices in America were way high before the war.

[mrhankey]

Not a big deal. Just cut back on luxury items

[LunaKuartiX]

i pray everyone is able to get by this well. this war has done enough damage. humanity requires peace. i feel for the Americans who are struggling and the people in Ukraine who are dying through this idiotic war. although i live in Dubai and gas prices for us are stable i wish the world would unite. its time to end this war. kindness, compassion and love that is the mark of a true human. to everyone struggling my prayers are with you all. please stay safe.

[Bayoustate]

We can't blame gas prices and higher prices on consumers goods on the latest crisis in Ukraine. Prices have steadily been inching higher since the end of the lockdowns and the start of the big government spending

[LegendFZorro]

If you can bike or walk, do it. Check and see if mass transit goes near your work too

[djhartford]

Don’t forget to factor in inflation. Russia isn’t the only reason our money is becoming worthless.

[spotlight]

Yeah, we need humanitarian aid.
Cut Americans a check. 🇺🇸
Corporate greed is killing the American worker. 💰💰💰

[Xavier-Denis]

We ALL have to spend our money smarter than impulsively.

[etahhcumosevahi]

Inflation is not due to Ukraine. It’s the US fed policy. Why they blaming this on Ukraine war?
