Cheer up. With the food and other product shortages due to the supply chain break down you won’t have to worry as much about inflation. See? Joe’s handlers think of everything. Let’s Go, Brandon.
Why not? Gas stations have been doing that for years…
I remember a time that I pulled up to my usual gas station and started to reach for the filler nozzle, but heard the owner say, “Wait a minute”… then he did something on his cellphone – and the displayed price went up five cents per gallon.
So I got back in my car without buying any gas. As I left, he asked me where I was going… I said to a station that values me as a customer – very rude to make me wait and watch him jack up the price.
Yeah, because there was no inflation under President Trump or any other president. I don’t know about you, but I never bought a loaf of bread for 10 cents.
During Germany’s hyper-inflation, people were using wheelbarrows to rush their pay to the market to buy something that would still be worth it the next day. (When money is losing value, then you quickly realize you must store value in some other way). They were also just bringing home the pay to use as fuel to heat their homes.

Well, a session of floods, droughts, and fires certainly didn’t help with food prices.Can we blame that on the president, too?
