To put things into perspective

[Destroyer]

In case some people don't understand exactly what is happening to their purchasing power, due to inflation, here is a short list of how it's effecting everyone's wallet. Almost ALL of these increases in prices can trace some or all of their price increases to the cost of energy to either process or transport the goods to market. To be fair, there are other factors also, such as the labor shortage driving up wages, but none of those costs are as great as the cost of energy. Each of these percentages reflect the increase in costs from one year ago to today. Thank you President Brandon.

Eggs 11.6%

Seafood 11%

Bacon 20%

Steak 24.2%

Ham 7.6%

Ribs 16.9%

Chicken 8.8%

Milk 5.8%

Fuel Oil 59.1%

Gasoline 49.6%

Used Cars 26.4%

Car Rentals 39.1%

Hotels 25.5%

TV's 10.4%

Furniture 13.1%

Suits 9.3%

All of those items and their percentages were copied from my TV from FOX news on the Cavuto Report at 10 o'clock this morning if anyone wants to view them in person.

One final note. The new "Infrastructure" bill that just passed is so loaded with pork that several analysts are saying it won't cost the 1,75-1.85 Trillions dollars. They project that it will probably wind up costing between 3-4 Trillion dollars.
So we will be spending money we DON'T have and can't afford on items most people DON'T want. Way to go Democrats!!!
