Pay no attention to that Biden behind the curtain.
BTW, what's gas going for in your part of the world?

I'm no fan of Biden but let's be honest that, while his policies may not be helping, the inflation we are seeing is the result of what happened in 2020. Anyway, gas is $2.90.

I think that's mostly true, much of the price inflation we see is due to Covid related supply chain issues in combination with an over-reliance on JIT methods. But I do think money-supply fueled inflation is a real risk over the next year or two, and Biden made the risk worse.

Just got back from Costco… Steaks that are normally ranging $7.99-$9.99 were $11.99 per pound. Ribs are normally $2.99 per pound were $4.99. I like to buy these shishiti pepper packs for a quick grill side.. normally they are 3,99 per pack. They were $4.99 today…

The Shishito Peppers were 5.79 today. Over 30% increase in two months.

I think like others this is mostly supply chain issues, largely transportation shortage. But I agree with Jon - Biden is unlikely to do anything but make it worse.

The solution isn’t to keep paying these workers $15 an hour to stay at home…
