NBC News: Grocery Prices going through the Roof this Year

I'm out west and prices have obviously shot up quite a bit. What used to be about a $250 grocery list is now about $325....same things, same amount. I've asked my relatives in the south and they say they haven't felt the same punch in the gut. Maybe it's regional right now???

Rocky Mountains here ... typical ~$120 weekly food bill for a family of 3 is now ~$180... happened quickly. Gonna head back to CR shortly ... food is sanely priced down there.

From the same main stream article:

"Issues like higher gas prices, increasing transport costs that get passed on to consumers, especially for items like bread, are only going up as driving increases faster than oil production. So grocery prices are likely to remain on the higher end of estimates for at least the rest of the year, Olvera said. Producers may eventually increase their output in order to capture the heightened demand, but that won’t happen until toward the end of this year, Olvera said."

and

"The White House said Monday that it expects inflation to go up — and not go back down."

-----------------

So the White House and their lackeys in the media are admitting this now. They would never say this unless it is going to be much worse.

Oh but we are experiencing the same in the south.

The weekly grocery bill has been going up steadily for 4 years straight with the only difference being that now the smaller packaging sizes that they have been using to charge the same price that are now finally catching up with this inflation shake down using economic warfare to solve that pesky social security insolvency issue and medicare entitlements

And with the Restaurants and Sporting events reopening things are going to get a lot higher, I read somewhere that they expect shortages in Burgers, Hotdogs, bacon, Ketchup, coffee and various Breads, Buns and Rolls because of all the reopening's, there were many other foods on that list but this all i could remember!

Inflation getting worse, we knew this was coming.

They are lying about it, it is not supply problems on all these different products that have nothing to do with each other.

Intelligent people have already picked up on it, they are buying up assets that will hold value for when the collapse comes like land, gold, silver, homes etc.

It's worldwide. COVID lockdowns are causing it and the elite admit it, laughing at us. Squirm untermensch, squirm.

Here is another mainstream media article from a month ago:
[link to www.bloomberg.com (secure)]
"In Indonesia, tofu is 30% more expensive than it was in December. In Brazil, the price of local mainstay turtle beans is up 54% compared to last January. In Russia, consumers are paying 61% more for sugar than a year ago."

"Consumers in the U.S., Canada and Europe won’t be immune either as companies — already under pressure from pandemic-related disruptions and rising transport and packaging costs — run out of ways to absorb the surge."

No crap!

Was in shock at the Albertsons last night, thank God for discount stores. But even the dollar store had much smaller snack size packages for a dollar. Everything keeps shrinking. Sometimes it is a matter of things being sold in packages of 5 instead of 6, sneaky stuff like that. The sale flier was teeny compared to normal, produce section was out of the question, have to go to the 99 cent store for that, although they are also doubling prices on some produce.

Fuels have really just started to rise in the last 2 months so higher fuel expenses will raise prices even further, Wait till Diesel tops $4 a Gallon!! it's like a repeat from the Obama Day's in more ways then just food and fuel prices!!

Its ALL due to FUEL COSTS, and that blame lies squarely on the SOCIALIST BIDEN Administration.

They are cutting off the fuel to drive up prices.

Gas will be $10 a gallon by Xmas (and so will milk).

Socialists hate the poor and middle class.

I’d imagine liberals weren’t expecting to spend their stimulus on gas and food.

I’ll wait for MSM to tell them that Congress knew

Things are still mostly good here. Butter and eggs went up, likely a few other things.

I don't buy expensive steaks or things like that so maybe that stuff's going up. I wouldn't know.

It isn't a new ice age, it's trillions of dollars being printed out of thin air to fund the corporations buying up all the assets of the world.

this is Trump's legacy

it's called hyperinflation.


Trump spent 13 trillion dollars on a fake Pandemic, what did you think was going to happen.


now he gets to sit on a golf cart in florida. washing his hands from the covid19 hoax, and blaming Biden for the mess Donald Trump created....

if not for the Milk subsidies Milk would have been over $7 a gallon along time ago!

Sheeple love their (meager) share of the multi-trillion pork laden stimuluses until reality hits home....

"Supply problems"

Yes its called inflation.

Everyone is becoming rich

With the above post summarizing what's up with this thread, now this: :overcap:

USA printed more money in one month last year under that orange puppet than in last 200 years of American Republic

so what else do you think is the consequence of his Deep State actions than a hyper-inflation on the horizon

and a new W5imar Republic of 1920s

history keeps repeating itself because the same kind of people are manipulating with events and screwing the populaces

it took 5 years for the German Reichsmark to go from a 5 mark bill to a one million

same shit happening in America, dollar the World's reserve currency, we're all fucked an WW3 is imminent, thanks Tramp

"We think the likeliest outlook over the next several months is for inflation to rise modestly...and to fade back to a lower pace thereafter as actual inflation begins to run more in line with longer-run expectations," they wrote, increasing from "historically low to more normal levels."

Does this make sense to someone who knows more about economics?

Thanks Joe.

You can say that again.

Only the nazis are nowhere to be found and the bolsheviks are in control and running rampant.

They learned from last time, nobody is coming to save us and if anybody tries they will take them down.

Biden = Carter 2.0

The only good thing about Biden stealing the election is that he and the dems are going to own the dollar collapse.

fify

And Biden/Harris will see that 13 trillion and raise it
another 26 Trillion, it's what you voted for, enjoy it, you will beg for Trump when the Stimulus runs out and your paying 60% of your salary in Taxes and Obama Care, best spend that $$ wisely while you still can!!
