I dunno if this is price gouging or restaurants genuinely are paying more for their supplies. End result is the same, I am paying more if I eat out.
Yes, this is anecdotal. Yes I know I should probably eat at home. I’m just saying this to show that stock markets, GDP etc doesn’t matter if people are stressed while buying groceries or having a meal at a local restaurant. None of the fancy infographics matters if I am starving
- diamond559 2y agoNow explain how Biden/Harris is to blame for any of the inflation and how Trump would make it at all better...
- valval 2y agoYou have a lot to learn about politics if you think this matters.
- akudha 2y agoIt is not because of Biden/Harris. Trump will not make it better, in fact he will make it much, much worse. That is the point. General public either does not understand or does not want to understand the nuances. That is the unfortunate situation we are in. To them, they are unable to afford stuff, Biden is the president, so he is to blame. And Trump capitalized on it completely. Politics is largely not a logical game, it is an emotional/knee-jerk-reaction game. If it was logical, nobody would ever vote for people like Cruz, Trump, Boebert etc.
- lenkite 2y agoTrump will likely make it better by making the gas price hold at below $3 per gallon like it was for nearly all of his Presidency. This will reduce the price of food.
- andrekandre 2y agohow will he accomplish that?
- lenkite 2y agoThe Keystone XL project is likely back on the table, along with fast-tracking of drilling permits on federal lands.
- foobarian 2y agoJust wait until he deports half the restaurant staff. There won't be a restaurant left to go pay 50% more in.
