A national disgrace.
IF you believe the Gooferment’s numbers!
Doesn’t “feel” like 2% to me. Just like “unemployment” doesn’t feel like 8%. And, inflation, don’t make me laff, ain’t ZERO! (Gasoline four years ago was UNDER $2 / per gallon and yday I paid 3¾$ per gallon! That’s 80% over four years or 20% per year. Consider that gas costs gets built into EVERY product and service created!)
Sorry, but we a “KILLING” people.
I trace it back to the “funny money”. It allows the politicians and bureaucrats to fool us. And, the standard that money should represent.
