Re: I think all prices are going up. said by David:I guess the dumb question is, what isn't going up? PAY. Standard of living. Hope for the future!
And the CPI is a complete lie. Anyone who believes inflation is 1% isn't living in the real world.

We've had 3 zeroes taken from our currency years ago, and it's allready catching up again. |

Tulsa, OK | I think that's kind of the point, isn't it? The plan isn't SUPPOSED to be to race backwards, but that's exactly what's happening.

kudos:1 | The reality is in today's world, the little guy is fucked. If you have to go to work in the morning to make a buck, you're one of the little guys.
Some of us are just more fucked than others. Agreed the CPI is bullshit. They strip the cost of food & energy out of it. The exact 2 things you can't live without and say inflation is "low".
It's all smoke & mirrors while we argue republicrat vs deomocin.
All along we end up screwed & squeezed.
Things can't go on like this much longer. The politicians are strangling the country for their own personal agendas and we pay the price...

Get enough people to vote them out vs vote the party line and watch things change. Politics should never be a career rather something you do out of service to your country. When we stop making it a career we get back to the principals this country was founded on. |
