Yes, these fricking Trumptards are too stupid to argue with. I'm a white progressive with 4 degrees from respected universities. The best way to help people in poverty is to make everything much more expensive!!! That's what makes sense!!!! Us white liberals navigated a beautiful Afghanistan withdrawal and we will navigate our country through these economic times. TRUST US!!!!

Here in BR just this past Saturday at the Costco here on Airline, I saw 8 vehicles deep at each pump. You would have thought a hurricane was coming, nope just a regular Saturday around 11am. But when you looked at the vehicles, 90%+ were large SUVs or F250's, basically $80k-$90k new vehicles.

So this was kind of funny but also sad at the same time. There are people out there with these super expensive vehicles but will wait 30 mins in line to save $15???? Wow, and it's only gonna get worse. From what I saw, there will be a shite ton of F250s and Tahoes on the used lot in 2022-2023.

It was that low in late 2018 - early 2020, at least in Alabama where I live.


Yep, it was that low in GA, and if you shop at Kroger, you could get big discounts. They give you extra points for buying gift cards, so just be sure to buy them all there, and if you want... you can buy home depot, etc cards there and bank bucks for gas.

At what point does the middle class have to start cutting seriously back on things?

Of course, Biden just upped EBT by 25%, so poor people aren't impacted by inflation.

The next year will be a very anxious time in our country, economically speaking.

I really hope this is just part of the cycle and things will bounce back. A lot of this country, including Biden voters, are really disappointed that the economy isn't working correctly. You can see it in his tanking approval numbers.

Never understood how that guy has avoided the Price Gauging laws in Louisiana. A loophole use to be "full service," but it's just a regular drive-up.

Sounds like you make poor choices

My office shutdown in New Orleans(Thanks Biden) and the only option I had, in order to keep my job, was to commute to Baton Rouge. That's a poor choice on my part? Sounds like your mom made a poor choice by not swallowing you.

Inflation is happening so rampantly right now, I don't think people realize the long term impact yet.
Much like when you go to a sporting event and don't think twice about paying $15 for a beer and a hot dog, only now you are realizing you have to pay that much every damn day.
