Food Inflation Hits Highs Not Seen Since 1979

[LV426]

If you've read the entire bill, then you should be able to answer the question.

I did answer the question, you just didn't like the answer so you pretended not to read it.

I mentioned 4 "claims" made in the bill

To which I answered all of those claims, you literally said yourself that you're choosing not to believe in things until they validate your thoughts.

What a fraud.

(I bet you;re still claiming you got to keep your doctor and only paid $70 a month...but wait...you just recently said you're healthcare isn't the best...Never mind...)

Well, I get my insurance through my employer, not on the exchanges.

 

[TOP]

You asked how the bill would fight inflation, and I told you.

It's not my problem that you don't know what you're talking about, and it's not my problem that you make excuses for yourself.

Those are YOU problems, not WE problems.

But what you mentioned won't fight inflation...and I'm asking specifically about the claims I mentioned...claims being made in the bill... You need to be able to convince people this is going to work...and you haven't...
No one has....It's never good to claim victory if there's no real win....

 

[LV426]

But what you mentioned won't fight inflation

Ummm, yes it will.

and I'm asking specifically about the claims I mentioned

To which I answered them, you just didn't like the answer you got because you admitted that you're choosing to not believe in anything that doesn't validate your biases.

So again, that's a you problem, not a we problem.

claims being made in the bill

Claims are being made in the bill?

How would you know that when you haven't even read the bill?!?!?!?

 

[LV426]

You need to be able to convince people this is going to work

The bill has already been passed and will be signed into law shortly, so I don't need to convince you or anyone.

and you haven't.

Oh, I have...you just didn't like the answer you got because you said on this thread that you won't believe anything unless it confirms your biases.

 

[LV426]

No one has....It's never good to claim victory if there's no real win....

You should take your own advice here, because anyone can read the thread and see you run away from the answers to your stupid questions.

Lay off the bottle...sober up.

I understand you need time to come up with some answers...I'll check back with you later....

Read the thread and you'll see that you got answers, but while you were getting them you also said that you won't believe anything.

So you opened your big, fat mouth and your put your tiny foot into it.

Although the Consumer Price Index came in lower than expected at 8.5% in July, inflation is continuing to hit grocery shopping. The food-at-home category soared to 13.1 % over the last year, the largest increase since the period ending March 1979, according to the US Labor Department on Wednesday.

​

Egg prices in particular have been driven higher by one of the worst bird flu outbreaks in US history, killing more than 30 million commercial and wild birds. The crisis hurt egg-laying hens and turkeys the most. Although the outbreak has eased in the US, growers are still repopulating their flocks, which is expected to bring prices down eventually.

Consumers have been fighting inflation by trading down to value brands, IRI said. They’ve also been shopping deals, with IRI saying 55% of ice cream was purchased with coupons in July.

Overall, food prices are up 14% year over year through July, according to the company. The research firm compiles its insights from point-of-sale data.

Bullshit. Brandon mumbled to the world yesterday there was ZERO inflation in the month of July. You are imagining prices are going up. You will need to use a bit more imagination when harrvest time comes and you can't find the items you are seeking.

Slow Joe did this.

Out of control inflation, crime, borders.

Remember in November.

Ummm, yes it will.

It's like nailing jello to a wall, trying to have an adult conversation with the bimbo, isn't it?

 

[MAGA MAN]

TO SELL

TO SELL

TO SELL

That's where the wealth is generated.

Again, you're welcome.

Again, without the product, no sale.

 

[MAGA MAN]

Nope. Company A only shows a profit when/if the raw materials they deliver to Company B are paid for. Company B only shows a profit when they sell the products they made with Company A's raw materials.

Company B can make all the products they have materials for, but there is no profit until they sell them. Parking them in a warehouse waiting for a buyer is a negative on the balance sheet. It's called "inventory."

Don't they teach *anything* about basic economics in school anymore? Even the fake "teacher" doesn't seem to have a clue about any of this stuff, other than "Biden bad."

If you were following the conversation at all you wouldn't have ignored this:

Wrong. Making things that people want to buy is what grows an economy.

 

[MAGA MAN]

LMAO! Is that what we're calling stealing other people's lines now?

Yup, 36% of those surveyed are hitting their savings to make ends meet averaging over $600 YTD. Gen Xers most of all as they've never seen big inflation before.

Obviously the advice is to take a long hard look at what you are spending money on and what you really cant afford. This is pretty hard for a population so accustomed to being fat dumb and happy their whole lives.

This will, of course have a very negative impact on the convenience and retail economies.

So many dominoes yet to fall in this recession.

In the face of high inflation, 36% of people say they have withdrawn an average of $617 from their savings during the first six months of this year, according to New York Life’s latest Wealth Watch survey. In that same time period, the U.S. personal savings rate fell to 5.1% in June from 8.7% in December 2021, according to the most recent measurement from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.

I saw a pretty interesting piece the other day by someone who took at two year old grocery store recipe and checked how much the same stuff would be today. I cant remember the result but that it was well north of the official inflation numbers even before accounting for shrinkflation.

 

[LV426]

Again, without the product, no sale.

Right, but manufacturing the product doesn't make you any money, it only costs you money.

Selling the product is what makes you money.

Manufacturing is a cost, not a revenue stream.

Doesn't really feel like mocking when you have to explain it after the fact.
