- HankStallone 1y agoNo, because that started before 2025.
- potato3732842 1y agoThe money printing started before then too.
- spicyusername 1y agoThe article is about the cost increase since 2020.
- hobs 1y agoIt's literally reported right in the top "Up 29% since February 2020, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics." And later "Coffee prices have jumped more than 20% in the last year. And while some of that is due to weather in coffee-growing countries like Brazil and Vietnam, Trump's double-digit import taxes are not helping." if you want to pretend that your boy had nothing to do with it (because global trade wars have nothing to do with rising prices.)
- vladimirralev 1y agoI am fascinated your comment is buried down here with absolutely no discussion. Money printing is undoubtedly the biggest factor in this particular inflation spike, but something is quietly steering the narrative away from it almost everywhere. While the question of alternative actions and outcomes is also valid, this is a literal 10-trillion dollar question that nobody in a leadership position wants to ask or answer.
