But... hear me out here... Have you seen how the brown people are suffering?

Deploying the same methodology that Republicans used to track cost increases under former President Joe Biden, JEC Democrats found that the average US family is spending roughly $700 more per month on basic items since Trump took office in January, pledging to bring prices “way down.”

Smart to use their methodology. That way they can't call it flawed. Well they can but they'll sound stupid

So.

Much.

Winning.

$700 more PER MONTH? Where do people take the money from?

Making America(n cost of living) greater again!

...and people wonder why no one has hobbies anymore

Someone is wining, but it ain't you.

That's a lot of money.

I mean that's about 12k pre tax to afford the 8.4k increase in costs. 18% of the median income in just increases, not total costs!

How are most people able to swing that if the median income is 66k ?

Invading Venezuela, giving cash to Argentina and golfing are the top priorities. I hope the Red Oblasts get hit the hardest.

I'm surprised how big the difference between states, $269 in OK to $1,030 in UT

The important thing is Israel still gets billions of dollars every year.

No kidding.

I wonder what my distant uncle who said Trump made him richer would think about this. I think he was referring to the three tiny stimulus checks he got during the pandemic. Oh well, he voted for this.

Yeah but how much are eggs?

I’ve noticed

Just more winning!

I've managed to mostly keep my grocery bill down by buying more raw ingredients to supplement my garden and making stuff at home in bulk.

But I doubt that will continue now that the garden is done. I'm still waiting on the Trump Famine to hit since he's been constantly fucking up the agriculture sector. I'm not sure what the timing of it will be, but he seems to be intentionally trying to bring back the conditions described in the Grapes of Wrath.

In my yard I've planted 7 fruit trees and 8 berry bushes. And I'm building 200 Sq ft of raised beds, and another 400 sq ft of non raised bed garden. (Right now I have 100 sq ft) And I'm still planning arbors to grow Kiwi Berries and grapes. And I'm building a chicken coop today for 4 chickens. But all that probably won't sustain my family for 3-5 years when the trees and bushes finally start hitting fuller production.

I'm still waiting on gas and electricity bills to go up. So far gas is staying steady and electricity has only gone up 10% compared to the 20+% I'm seeing reported other places.

sure but they're paying it to the big corps who need profits, so like, it's all good, right?

Yah, but Biden had the worst economy ever, and Pedonald is just trying to dig out from all the terribleness.

🙄

I wanna see what percent of working class voted for this guy

No we're not. My family can't afford to spend $700 more a month on groceries, so we just don't get many groceries anymore. Ramen is making a comeback in this household in a big way.

But I need two Rivians! I'm not sharing with Caitlin!

Something something Biden something something China something something ballroom...
