Does this mean more goods are being purchased or just that the same or less amount of goods are bought but they just cost more?

You could make this claim at any point over the years because of inflation.


If in 1980 I was selling used cars for $5k and today I’m selling them for $20k. I would only need to sell one car in 2025 to match the revenues of selling four in 1980.

there it is! the poli board classic, "i'm doing great but everyone else is doing bad"

why can't you worthless phucks ever admit you're doing bad? i'm sorry you're struggling with grocery prices, it's probably the logical conclusion to a number of poor life decisions you've made. better luck next year
