Then they wonder why people don't want kids.

You really expect people to want to bring another life into this bullshyt

Not to mention it'll make their life a bit harder too

It’s the main reason rethugs want to ban abortion. They don’t want people killing off future slave workers for these corporations.

This is a huge component of the inflation right now…

- rising gas prices due to greed and gouging
- companies raising prices on their products to compensate for the increased costs of transporting their goods

Again oil companies are making HUGE profits too by the way

Been saying this. People thought these fools were just going to let the shutdown happen and not try to re-up? Remember when business owners were protesting when the shutdown happened, then they protested when these soft reopening sd happened. They’re quiet now. I wonder where they are now

A lot of them are still struggling contrary to popular belief as their pay is still shyt to attract workers.

yup
and so is the government with all those gas taxes

The United States federal excise tax on gasoline is 18.4 cents per gallon and 24.4 cents per gallon for diesel fuel. The federal tax was last raised October 1, 1993 and is not indexed to inflation

it'll be worse than 2008 when the media and government finally feel its safe or a good time to admit it.

if you've been paying attention to what yellen and various others have been saying for the past 1 and a half years it's kinda comical.

went from inflation/recession? no way. to yeah maybe we need to do some things to curb inflation. to yeah we might be headed for a slight recession. I'm just waiting for the rug pull in the stock market honestly

People were struggling before and now everything is more expensive. Rent is high, mortgage rates going up. Buying fruits and veggies will bring you to the potters house

I made a thread months ago about the obvious inflation before this recent sharp rise and most of the replies were dismissive. granted I could have went deeper than just an offhand observation but this stuff always creeps up on a population. until it taps us on the shoulder, we turn around and it's godzilla :wow:

edit: just checked and not as dismissive as I remember. people were pretty much agreeing:ehh:

Even when I recently travelled I've never seen hotel and airbnb prices so high.
