A lot of this shyt is blatant gouging in some industries.

how the fukk are oil companies making RECORD profits during this time.

shyt is disgusting.

But again it's the Supply Chain all fukked up and we don't have enough people involved in them jobs. Lotta cats retired, left and did their own entrepreneur thing, etc.

Now you got a situation where
- not enough people to produce
- not enough people to ship/transport from the factories/ports
- not enough people to work the warehouses
- not enough people to work on the retail end

You're seeing a huge influx of straight to consumer with a lot of the younger cats working those types of jobs.

all of this is leading directly to the inflation.
And a breh said on here, a lot of those supply chain workers probably died in this unnecessary pandemic. The blue collar life is full of men who delay or ignore tking care of themselves.

My job does a 3%. They gave us 5% about a half yr ago, thinkin they did something. Now, normal everyday items we buy are 10-15% higher, and that aint even factoring in gas, which is waaaay more than some damn 15% higher
Right. Now is the time to freshen up that resume. Changing jobs is the only way to get that 15%-20% bump just to get back to pre-covid

Like Chris Rick once said, nothing says :mjpls: more that inflated prices.

Take from that what you may. Add all the random acts of gun violence in there too

And you have a recipe for disaster in the black communities. Stop listening to that

Garbage rap music and put instagram down and pick up a book.:ufdup:

a lot of people are about to start missing CC payments, mortgages, car payments, etc etc... all that debt pushed to the next entity further and further up the chain worthless. everybody asking "where's my money?" and get a helpless shrug in response

if we stay on this trajectory were gonna be in a recession THIS year:francis:
we're probably already in a recession... the talkin heads at the big places are all slowly starting to admit it.
