Inflation PLUMMETING under Biden administration; stock market BOOMING

[Polaris]

That would be great if it ends up being that case...I'm not hoping for the country to continue going to shyt under Biden just to have a "gotcha " moment, but...let's be honest here, and not engage in COPE.

Literally nobody is buying the OP's narrative besides the diehard blue checkmark democrats who will always support their party no matter what.

Can't convince people that things are cheaper than they are, and that they got more money than they do.

Buying power is something that people have to live with every day, that has a huge impact on their quality of life.

Only people trying to politicize the economy right now are democrats in a vain attempt to defend their precious leaders.

[Austanian]

Why do idiots keep thinking presidents have a big impact on the stock market?

Amazing how a mostly true historical statement is so irrelevant to the current market conditions.

Some of the same people flat out hoping for the economy to fail under Drumpf (like Bill Maher who flat out said it multiple times) for a "gotcha" moment. Now simply calling out BS and wanting to be honest about things is somehow the equivalent to that, in a lot of their minds.

I mean...if you want to talk "cultists", then look no further.

They are democrats first, anything else second.

Chicken breast still 60% higher than it was last year. Still ticking up. Reliably cheap pork (pork butt, picnic roast, etc) has also skyrocketed almost 50% in the past 2 months. Eggs are absolutely insane right now, 3x the price from last year. Milk has nearly doubled.

Fuk your inflation numbers. They are a lie. We're all paying more for gas than 2 months ago-wowie I'm only paying $3.50 instead of $4.50 now when 18 months ago it was $2.50. Let's all pat Joe on the back for drawing down strategic reserves. First shut down Keystone XL, then fuk with exploration, then draw down the reserves. We're in the perfect position for a major oil disruption....

We're all paying out the ass for food. We're all paying out the ass for everything that everyone requires to make it by. Basically anybody between the working poor and middle class is getting ass raped still. These costs might be a superfluous note on some San Francisco liberal or DC hack, but they're not to me. Fuk right off.

Y'all shop at some whack places. All meat where I shop has come back to normal prices. For example chicken breast are $2.99 not on sale and $1.99 on sale. Eggs might be $.50 more than before, milk maybe the same.

Certainly no 50% higher lol

This is great news!!!

The inflation reduction act is working wonderfully so far- already at 0% inflation

[Stizzel]

Imagine celebrating 9% inflation

Admittedly, I don't pay enough attention to notice how much a lot of things that have gone up but one I have noticed - fuking Turkey Burgers. Those used to be a staple for me - the ones I would get have jumped up like 70-80%.

Most of these prices are Walmart prices, so no weird promotions or gimmicks muddying the waters. I wish I took more pics of all the "before times" prices when I moved to Nebraska. The price of eggs and milk was too unreal not to so I do have those pics somewhere (milk $1.34 a gallon, eggs $2.42 for 60). Now milk is $2.49 and eggs are still over $8 for that 60 pack. Chicken breast that was reliably $1.99 is $3.24 right now.

Also I do recall you mentioning you don't pay much attention to prices in the past. I do. I'm a hawk and nail this stuff.

Inflation still remains painfully high, much to high. Glad it came down some, but with Democrat policies I'm guessing inflation will remain high and a problem for some time now.

"Inflation climbed 8.5% in July as prices cool but remain near record high
Price gains eased in July for the first time in months"

The new bill they're going to pass will turbocharge inflation.

That's the thing, it's not 0% month over month. The brandon admin lied and made you retards look like idiots again when you bought it. Inflation increased 8.5% from the previous month. The RATE of increase 0% but to get to 0% inflation we'd have to have deflation for at least 6 months and there's no way that is going to happen.

To be fair, im pretty sure it was 8.5% YoY compared to last July, and that it didnt "increase" from last month.

Using gas prices as an example, a year ago it was $2 lower per gallon than it was currently. However, it didnt increase from last month so it's still $4.5. But hey, at least it didnt go up yet again. However, it's still high af.

It's "progress" now that the inflation curve is peaking.

Ah yes that's true. I don't pay a ton of attention to prices except for the stuff that's always going on sale then coming off then going on again. I will say my standard grocery bill is $300+ now and in the past that would have been a big order.

Nationwide gas is less than $4 a gallon boyo. The economy hit the trough and it's working it's way up.

I know we're all thrilled with this.

Not everyone has an Aldi by them bro.

Absolutely not anti Aldi btw.

It was less than $2 boyo.

Except in liberal California where it is still way over $5 and reached over $7 so people have been getting crucified for months and still are

[Kraken]

Liberals cherry pick short time frames that meet their agenda. They look at one month instead of seeing the bigger picture. They do the same for assessing the welfare state, jobs, growth…it’s deception.

For the welfare state they only use 5-10 years, when 20 years shows dramatic negative affects.

lol do they know they're retarded?

[ParsleyTea]

According to Biden's statement yesterday, inflation is at zero percent. Of Course that is a lie, but many in the corporate Democrat media didn't take on Biden's zero inflation statement lie.

"Media Parrot Biden’s Absurd Claim That July’s 8.5 Percent Inflation Increase Is Actually ‘Zero’"

This. I hope they can continue this "upward trend" in the economy. I actually hope Biden can prove people wrong, not cause I like him, but cause this chit sucks lol hate paying $5.00 for gas and double for groceries these days so I don't give a damn who fixes things.

[Scarrdbutsmartr]

Inflation is GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I spent over $100 to fuel my truck yesterday. Two years ago that would have been $60
I purchased TWO bags of groceries in the same trip and it was over $120. Those groceries were meant to hold me over until I do my weekly shopping. My entire weekly shopping bill two years ago used to cost $200. The same shopping trip regularly cost me $350-400 now.

Its really great to see inflation is gone. Thumbs up to this administration!

I guess I better get back on a spending spree since things are back to normal. Now if I can just find all of that money Im supposed to have since inflation is gone it would be a miracle.

[bluebeltATT]

[SillieBazzillie]

It was less than $2 boyo.

You mean when oil was negative $'s a barrel during the demand crushing pandemic? Is it your expectation that that's what a "normal" price of gas is?
