Luckily, I don't live in Southern California. The price of apples has gone up a bit in some stores. Gee. Could it possibly have anything to do with the fact that apple season is over? The price of fruit and vegetables varies by season and is also impacted by the weather, as well as a shortage of seasonal workers. But, who the fuck wants to do those jobs, other than immigrants, and despite the low pay, the pay has increased quite a bit over the past year for seasonal farm workers. Could that have anything to do with the price of some farm products increasing in price?Actually gas is about 3.40 per gallon, where I live but only an idiot believes a president can control the price of oil, a global commodity that is all about supply and demand.And, damn that sneaky Joe!! He did the same damn thing to the European Union two years ago!!Let's see what an actual economist says about the Biden economy,
Economists can waffle all they want about Bidenomics but when your grocery bill is 60% more than it was a few years ago and gas is nearly $5 a gallon, well somebody has to take the fall for it.
My grocery bill isn't up 60%, although a few specialty items are. The price of veggies, frozen or fresh are the same that they were years ago, and most of the meat we buy is cheaper than it was, when Biden took office, but I don't live in Santa Monica. I live in an affordable town in central Georgia.
Male bovine excrement. Gala apples used to be about $.49 per pound, they have been over $1.99 per pound for over a year now. Meat prices are horrendously expensive. Everything is way more expensive. Gas is well over $5 a gallon in SoCal.
Plus, even if inflation was flat, that doesn't mean we will go back to what prices were prior to the pandemic. Surely, you've taken at least course in economics haven't you? Wheat prices were impacted by the war in Ukraine, the one that the Orange master has blamed on Biden. Sadly, too many people believe the insane lies coming from the right, despite the lack of evidence for these things. I spoke to a woman last week who thinks that Newsmax is an actual source of real news. Sad.
