Yeah, but only if you believe the official inflation figures, which were used to make that chart.
BEA says PCE is just 2.2% annualized, who believes that?
who cares, show me a chart for housing / insurance / child care / healthcare and the ACTUAL things that make Americans go bankrupt and live in poverty
housing is the biggest issue affecting american
hate to say it, but who on earth would trust a NIMBY state politician to lead us out of a housing disaster????
tell that to the grocery stores..
Anyone who beleives this chart hasn’t been to an actual grocery store in the past 4 years.
Trump reduced the rates for common American, that Democrats left at the peak. Again he will do it after winning 2024 election.
Shrink inflation
Data can be manipulated and presented in ways to shape a narrative even without it being incorrect. I don’t care about charts and stats presented to me. I know what my personal experience is, and I know that inflation has made things significantly harder for me financially and that stress has carried over into my wellbeing and personal life.
What is the “week’s worth of groceries”? Does it use the CPI model of swapping items when they’re too unaffordable?
Why did it increase in 2022 if COVID started in 2019-2020? I genuinely don’t know. The way I read this chart is that we should still be lower than where we are now.
Absolute lies.
Pork Chops were $1.29/lb now it’s $2.99
Sausage was $1.49/lb., now $2.59
Eggs were $0.89/dozen now $2.99
Tortilla Chips were $0.79 for a large bag. Now $1.49
Basically take any government number and treat it like the lies they obviously are. The bureaucratic state is not going to announce the collapse of their system with honest economic data.
Now are you going to try to tell me wages have doubled?
MAGA supporters wont be able to understand that
can you redo it in crayon. grape flavor pls
That line going down? That isn’t Trump’s fault, he was riding the Obama economy and by that logic, the line going down during Biden’s years is all him riding the Trump train.
That’s how you clowns rationalize this right?
I’ve never seen such gaslighting
relative to whose wages? not mine
Is this using everyones income? Like an average? How was it calculated?
