So, you're a fan of basically a 13% loss in buying power over the past 6 years..........using your figures.

$0.23 = 23% inflation

vs a 10% rise in wages

the math I learned years ago seems to lead me to believe there's a bit of a shortfall somewhere.

If the dollar is worth $1.23 now, how come it won't buy the same amount of gas that $1 did four years ago.

Stop using old math.

As Raeford points out, we need to start using Biden Math now.

Backhoes too, for digging holes?

23% inflation, since the beginning of the so-called trump administration (that's over 6 years). Who's the IDIOT?

You all are incapable of reading and comprehension...

But you should understand the principle of short term, and not purchasing high if not absolutely necessary.

As far as the minimum wage, that was nearly doubled in some circumstances. And the overall wage increases and the increased job market.

No, people haven't lost anything, unless they wanted too.

Take a look at the Consumer Price Index for the Trump Years vs post 2020.

Tell me if you see a little difference.

Can damn near draw a straight line on that chart from 16- mid 20, then a brief dip and then boing, up she goes, where she'll stop nobody knows!

Tell the ARMY that their soldiers who are defending your right to spew bile don't need SNAP benefits. https://www.newsnationnow.com/morni...food-stamps-soldiers-fighting-inflation/

If things are so much better under Biden, perhaps you can explain the dramatic rise in the need for SNAP assistance during Biden's tenure.

So there’s no inflation because you don’t buy anything.
That’s a brilliant supposition.
