Wonderful news Dog butt, It almost makes me want to vote for Joe Biden, how about you? If he keeps going he will have it back down near the Trump years. If we could only forget the past 3 years of massive increases that set records in high prices that won't go back down we could almost think Joe Biden is doing a good job. Of course we would have to become ignorant Marxist Democrats to believe it. Did I say "almost"? Well change that to "never". I would never vote for a tax and spend Democrat

Inflation is normal. The Fed shoots for 2%. Prices staying the same would be nice buy id not optimalhealthy economy. Deflation is bad, very bad.

Mush brains aren't used to feedback that exposes the deeper truth.

Their brains are programed to just accept the lies they are fed.

The food prices are so high food lion has stopped making certain items.

They no longer are stocking food lion bread, hot dog buns, or hamburger buns of their braind.

In addition, they are no longer stocking ice cream of vanilla, peanut butter and many delicious chunks of chocolate., Same with the chocolate flavor.

I think it is to expensive to make and the selling price would be dismissed by the customer.

The loaf ofread was around one dollar for years. It went to 240, laid on shelves getting stale, and then disappeared from the shelves.

That loaf of bread increased in price by more than 100 percent.

Certain cereals , includ. my favorite is no longer on the shelves.

From my 8:07 AM post:

Inflation, for example, is slowing, but it has still grown at a rate where most groceries are 50% higher than just five years ago. As we slow the growth of inflation, groceries aren't going to suddenly return to pre-2019 numbers. Instead, Americans are being forced to come to terms with a new norm.

Evictions are soaring because people can't pay their jacked up rent. Saw an elderly man crying on the TV news last night because he was being evicted with no place to go. Inflation down to 3% doesn't mean jack.

Joe Biden worst president ever.

This is so the government doesn't have to give you much of a COLA raise. It's not the real inflation rate. Congratulations

In other words, prices are still going up.
They are increasing at a slower pace.
Slower, but still faster than your paycheck by far.
