Inflation

And BTW, Ben Shapiro said on his last podcast that the employment numbers are a bit misleading. Job growth has occurred in three sectors - healthcare, government and hospitality. Hospitality is seasonal, of course. Other than that, most sectors have been flat or declining for eight months.

All I know is my wife said a few minutes ago to me that there is a good deal where a 12-pack of Diet Pepsi is 2 for $10 whereas normally it is $7-8 now. I told her I still think it's going to be $2.50-$3.99 whenever I go to the store. Then again, I still think there is a dollar menu at McD's.

Kevin's groceries:
I looked at what was in his grocery cart and did an amazon fresh cart to compare.
It came to about $65 for this year, iirc.
Toy soldiers are expensive.
Politifact rates this meme as false.
I added up their numbers: $55.81. Add sales tax - $61.39.
So, yeah. The meme is false, but by Politi"fact"s own numbers it $15 more than last years.
The inflation calculator says that it should have cost $46.59.
