It's normal for Subway to issue coupons that cost more that menu. I have shamed them into free cookies several times.

I have to have at least 1/3 of a burger left for Cooper when pulling into the driveway. If not, i squirt some ketchup from a packet into his mouf. He likes “chetchup” (dogs cant say ketchup)


He calls em 'meatish flavored braid tangs w/chetchup", one of his favs.

Exactly right...

The US Dollar is the highest (practical) currency in the world...

FOR NOW.

Inflation is happening but the actual amount is removed from the government calculated inflation numbers.

You will own nothing.
You will be happy.

So our pulse on the economy is based on prices at the drive-thru?

If you're all seeing inflation already begun, and you're anticipating even more, are you borrowing as much USD as possible? Because if you're right, you'll only owe today's pennies on tomorrow's dollars and any asset you can buy now will be worth a lot more than what you pay for it if you buy now and sell later.

On the other hand, I can't help but think the unanimous opinion that inflation is going to rage is simply a result of obedience to what you've been told. There are a lot of simple-minded explanations in this thread, all of which are repeated from the propaganda.

According to modern monetary theory, print and spend inflation can be prevented, if you tax the crap out of the folks. Get ready. It's a real neat little marxist trick.

Inflation percentages is a joke. Govt doesn’t even take into account the price of food goods or any energy products. The two things that affect Americans most!

You’re right but those prices do tend to cycle wildly from time to time.

When the Walmart shelves were pretty much bare a short while back I didn’t notice any great increase in prices, just for example.

They may cycle wildly from time to time, but they have been climbing forever.

Name one thing that most Americans have or use that isn’t highly inflated in price in let’s say the last 10 years.

Houses
Vehicles
Groceries
Cell phones
Utility bills
WiFi
Television,cable,streaming etc
Restaurant Bills
Construction materials
Booze
Tobacco

For gods sake a friggin Big Mac combo at McDonald’s cost almost $10 now!

But inflation is in check?

No argument but have you noticed salaries and the stock market over the same period of time?

You might want to check out Slumlord’s treatise and essays on how cheap McDonalds and Taco Bell are lately.

Some salaries have gone up but not by much and some not at all, and the stock market..... ....half the country doesn’t even know what the stock market is!
