Americans spending hundreds more each month compared to 2023, data shows 

I just got laid off. Please pray for me friends ❤

Lmao no really?? You think we haven't figured it out yet.

Notice how they smile at the peoples pain. The more the peasants suffer the more money these people make, they love it.

…..Every time I’m at the grocery store I witness more, and more people stealing food. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤔🤔

This could explain why shoplifting is out of control in this country

I’ve resulted to oatmeal and scoop of peanut butter for every breakfast now. About 35 cents a meal.

RENT IS HORRENDOUS IN NEW YORK. I gotta get outta here. Can't do it no more

My salary has not gone up

Why are they still just calling this inflation? It’s corporate greed that’s to blame for most of these increases.

Yup, my property taxes have risen 18% a year for the last 3 years in Florida. The local government doesn't care that there is a 10% cap. They found a way around it. The government loves inflation and gouging.

Inflatable is not 3% its more like 15%😂😂😂😂

Breaking news Biden says inflation is going down. Before he realized he was holding the chart upside down

A new house or a new car 😂 how about just being able to afford groceries!

Even as inflation has slowed, families are still paying higher prices, thanks to corporate greed, or greedflation. Under the guise of inflation, corporations are raising prices on American families and raking in record profits to boot.

Lies. The numbers aren't even close to what it really is.

That’s what everybody’s been saying this whole time except for the current government and the media. Inflation has been here for a while now yesterday last month last year it’s not going down it’s continuing to go up. Thanks for finally reporting the truth.

Let's talk about all the CEO's who control the prices?

I love giving more to the wealthy ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

The price gouging has to stop 🛑 these companies are disgusting 🤮

Is what they meant by Build Back Better???? Asking for a friend.

yup! Why we left and moved with family before starting dental school….also, no one is hiring but EVERYONE has a “job wanted” sign. I must have had 50 interviews, but no one called back. Not even target. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sen. Ted Cruz: Americans see Bidenomics is a train wreck

I’m a single father of 2 kids just spent $600 in the store

Joe Biden's America 😡😡😡😡

3:55 As a postal worker I dont feel supported by govt, we have no leverage due to federal laws on strikes for govt workers. meaning we have lower wages then we did ten years ago and limited means to fight, our wages are only getting worse as the purchasing power deteriates and cost of living out paces an already lowered payscale. Biden would only campaign for private unions but says nothing about us or teachers.

I am putting more store brand foods in my cart. Never thought it would be necessary to let go of my favorite brands. But, it's necessary, and I find they are of good quality. Actually, I thought it was me over spending, (smile) truly until I began hearing more and more desperation from all people who are among the "not rich". Thank you for this information.

It's CORPORATE GREED! Find the thread and report the truth.

I am soeding about $150 more a month on groceries

B.S. It's corporations raising prices.

American economy blows

while rate of inflation has come down from 9% last year to 3% now, last years 9% surge is now EMBEDDED into the prices. Learn the difference between inflation rate and inflation. PRICES CAN NOT GO BACK TO 2020 PRICES NOW, unless rate of inflation goes -ve like -5%.

I'm surprised they aren't somehow trying to blame this on racism lol

Bidenomics is working!

We are in a recession thats why.

I’m so destitute I’ve resorted to consuming my own feces to get the most out of my grocery bill.

Lets go Brandon

This message proudly brought to you in part by Joe Biden :)

It’s not inflation anymore. It’s now cost of living. The inflation has done its evil work and now we have to live with it. Hopefully over time our wages will catch up but that will take years.

Choices have consequences... . Interest on the federal debt is now so immense that it's consuming 40% of all personal income taxes. As deficit spending continues unchecked, urged on by the Biden administration, the debt is growing at a breakneck pace-over $500 billion in October alone.Nov 28, 2023 Your taxes will go up unless you make the change

Rate cut? Did I hear those words while the talk is inflation is high?

What they really mean by "Inflation" is that the "number of paper dollars" needed to buy what you could buy with in 2020 has inflated to how many it takes to buy the same thing now. The company you work for still pays you $XX, but it only buys $.85 XX.

Thanks Joe!!

When do we get back to the American dream? It was so very long ago.

"Socialism will make everyone equally poor"......Seems like capitalism is doing a pretty good job of that all on its own.

Is inflation sticky?? it's terrible! A donut is $2.75.

Bruh I can’t even save no money 😂

Imagine if everyone cut back! I used to make my spaghetti with sausage, bell peppers, onion, mushrooms, garlic, Italian herbs, garlic, diced tomatoes, and spaghetti sauce. Last time I made it I used diced tomatoes, salt, onion powder, Italian herbs, and garlic. Jimmy Dean sausage finally went on sale but not till after I found a recipe I like that is so much easier and cheaper. Soda went up! I drink a lot less of it. I drink more water and make sweet tea at home. The tea bags are great value and so is the sugar! I buy things when they are on sale. Aldi has good fruit and vegetable prices. I stock up on whatever is cheap. I buy meat on sale at Ingles. I found large reduced price whole chickens for $5. They were half price. I also got ground beef, boneless chicken, pork chops, ribs, and sirloin steak. This way, I don't have to pay full price. Ingles had a beautiful head of cauliflower for $1.49. It's over $3 at Walmart. It needed to be used that day. It became my lunch. I chopped it up and roasted it with spices and olive oil. It wasn't planned but turned out great. People need to learn to flexible. You might want steak and shrimp and end up with roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, and cornbread. Buy what's on sale and what's in season. I buy off the clearance shelf. Cheap pastry, salad dressing, crackers, beef jerky, ... Just whatever. But so many people feel too privileged to make sacrifices.

inflation is perpetuated word, upon a currency that makes no sense at all

I literally depend on my adderal to suppress my appetite until I can’t take it anymore. 😂😂😂

We should just print more money and regulate higher minimum wage. That always works. Democrats are so smart.

Now compare how much we’re spending vs when Trump was in office.

Stop spending items that are breaking your bank account. This is outrageous and these corporations and central banks dont care about it because they will still make their money.

Bidenomics.

I always buy groceries on sale and stock up. Check the flyers every week, they're available online. I buy 2% reduce fat gallon of milk from Target for $2.79 (everyday price), Shoprite had sale last week on Sara Lee Bread for $2 per loaf (bread freezes great, stock up), Hannaford has pasta on sale this week for .89 per 16oz box, etc. etc. I stock up every week on sale items and pay less. Shop and spend wisely.

I miss Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan

Dont blame a strong economy on US citizens unregulated and over the top spending habits, then say what is up with pricing?

Less fresh food price sales

Shelves still have items OOS, and too many people are still in the stores. Raise them higher!

When are they going to bring back soup kitchens and hoovervilles???

Wait my wages ain’t going up ????

You can't compare spending to 2020/2022. Life was different during the pandemic. If consumers keep overspending and building up debt, inflation will continue. When they learn to live within their budget and refuse to spend more, demand will decrease and prices drop. My budget has not changed since I became debt-free and plan to stay that way. If I can't afford it, I go without. It's going to be a rude awakening for people who can't manage their money.

Americas economy is in limbo.

Idk i feel like giving up. Forget budgeting my money. Tire of constantly managing it when everything is so expensive. Either i live bare minimalist reduce going to the grocery store or get a 2nd job😂

Symptoms of capitalism. Second Thought has good take on this matter.

Where letting price gauge us

The American dream is out of reach for many. I lived the American dream by working and paying my taxes. Everything is expensive compared to seventy years ago. My home cost me $6,000 in 1976. Paid $40,000 in taxes in 40 years, now valved at over $140,000. It's not the world as we knew it. (and I feel fine) ❤❤USA❤❤

Apparently, Etsy Creators haven't been paying the fair share on taxes lol

We will get to Canada’s situation - the corporations are being required to reduce the costs, and their greed makes them compulsive to attack people’s right to eat. We are watching all of their darkness coming out. They have no boundaries.

I'd like to know whose wages are going up. I got a whopping $0.80 raise. Do you really think that that counts as your wages going up?

Yes, but investments, stocks, home values and 401(k)s are all-time highs so I think if you’re not there, you need to start to invest.

A politician gaslight the people? Never

People remodle renter homes.

STOP OVER BUY .

Why is that

DRILL baby DRILL. Trump 2024

In 2022 I was able to save & take a trip live freely , 2 years later I can’t afford groceries on a weekly basis

Whose wages are going up? Am still waiting for my pathetic 3 percent increase at work. Also, watch us vote for the same people passing laws to allow corporations to squeeze us for our last dimes.

Can’t buy a home in America! It’s so expensive and seems not worth it. It’s pretty sad that a dream of one’s own house cannot be fulfilled despite all the hard work.

We HAVE to consider these corporations' "feelings" too. They are clearly struggling after making record profits while downsizing staff. Remember, Congress has declared that "corporations are people" in the past

Um closer to 5-6k more a year than in 2020.... is the 1k increase per person? Families are getting creamed out here.

I retired 1.5 years ago and had my decked out van ready to travel and have adventure now I can't afford gas. Sitting in the house, at least it's paid off, looking at the van from the living room window.

Always remember Prices rise with inflation and does not decrease with deflation

In economics this is called tightening the money supply. The issue is that government is taking the money from the wrong people.

Been anticipating this inflation bump for a decade. Thank goodness inflation continuing to run at a nice simmer. 4-5% inflation would just about be perfect.

Monopolies are causing food to go up! Inflation is up for multiple reasons. Minimum wages going up, high interest rates

Keep voting Democrat and it will be $402 in a few months

Raise the rates

Miss the days of a booming economy, low prices and mean tweets

You know my fellow liberals, maybe Orange Men wasn't that bad after all 😂

Thank you Biden administration we all love spending more money.

Land lords should stay off your smart phones need to pass policies.

Blame Biden for having us pay for other countries

Spending is Good for America.

Vote Republican

Are you enjoying capitalism?! I am! 🙄

By increasing the interest rates on people's credit card demand for food will go down and solve inflation. Thats the plan

Smiles every one

Corporate 1100% profit margin is the driving factor of inflation.

I hate real.estate

The economy is only great for certain people
