Sure boomer…..this current inflation is totes normal and absolutely not the highest it’s been in over 40 years and showing to still climb.

And even if not…..you should still just stop complaining about it.

You couldn’t build a boomer in a lab that could come up with a more typical argument.


Boomers were your age when inflation in the late 70's hit and our gasoline was being rationed. And now you are lecturing them about inflation.

By 1981, inflation had risen to 9.5%. The Federal Reserve combated inflation by increasing the federal funds rate, an overnight benchmark rate that banks charge each other. Continued hikes in the fed funds rate pushed mortgage rates to an all-time high of 18.45% in 1981.
