I hope you are blaming the democrats for that - including 'covid itself' and the fallout from it ˜ all planned & executed by dems and their propaganda cohorts.

Inflation under Biden was permanent.


A grocery store can't lower its prices and not lower costs somewhere else. That's when companies start layoffs. Then you would complain about unemployment.

You realize that inflation receding doesn't mean prices will come down, right?

My post didn't insinuate blame on anyone. All I said was I'm not feeling a decrease in inflation. I'm happy it's happening, but I'm not feeling it, and in fact, my groceries are continuing to increase.

That was easy.

The total number of jobs has grown, but the native-born population has not. Somebody has to fill those jobs.

That took me about 5 minutes to find. You could have but you are either lazy or devoid of curiosity.

either way sucks to be you



It's "net growth per subgroup."

Interest rate cuts ahead.


Hopefully not. YoY is still 3.5% and with the way Congress is cramming deficit dollars into the economy, cutting rates keeps inflation well above the 2% target.

You know the government printed trillions of dollars during Covid right? That ship has sailed.

It’s energy … gas and fuel oil prices moderated … it’s reflected in the data
