Complaining and observing are 2 different things

Warren Buffet makes comments about the economy. It's not because he is poor.

Cars are costing $60k because people are buying cars for 60k

People pay $40 for a steak at a restaurant because people pay $40 for a steak at a restaurant

People buy $20 rolls of toilet paper because people pay $20 for rolls of toilet paper

People buy $9 iced coffees from Starbucks because people pay $9 for iced coffees at Starbucks. If you don't want to pay $9 for iced coffee then go to the store and buy a box of Folgers for $5

If people keep buying expensive shite then shite will stay expensive.. it's called supply and demand

Don't want to pay $5 for the real Hamburger Helper? Then buy the fricking Great Value Helper at Walmart for $3

Don't want to pay $4 for a coca-cola then go buy RC cola for a dollar

Don't want to pay $20/month for Netflix? Then go buy the $7.99/month with ads

Don't want to pay $1,200 for a new iPhone? Then go buy a fricking $200 android

Don't want to pay $60k for a new macked out truck? Then go buy a fricking a truck that has manual roll up window rollers

Just because you can't afford nice expensive shite that you want doesn't mean the economy is doing bad.. it just means you suck at handling your finances or you need to go find a better paying job

If an airline ticket costs $500 for first class then go buy the $200 coach ticket

Don't want to pay $10 for a pack of Marlboro cigarettes? Then go buy a $4 pack of Winstons

If you don't want to pay $5 for your organic avocados, then go buy non organic for $3

If you don't want to pay $1,500 for a new Apple laptop then go buy a $300 windows laptop

If you don't want to pay $2k for a 90" tv then go buy a 60" TV for $500

It appears to me that everybody bitching about things being expensive are the ones who expect all of the expensive luxuries in life to be cheap.

Its ironic that the high credit card debt coincided with adding 20 million illegals to the country, odd how that works..................

That is a very small, cherry picked sample. I’m in the restaurant industry, while some things have remained steadyish, my overall costs on food products is much higher than it was 2 years ago. Everything costs me more today than it did just 9 months ago.
Paper products don’t get mentioned very often and those prices have risen more than food products.

Nah. Most folks are are chiefly reliant on variants of fixed income (salary, etc). So inflation sucks for most folks.

But it is also caused by giveaways marketed to the very people inflation hurts the most.
