Actually inflation is down, this is easy to look up, have you done any research at all?
Prices are up due to corporate price gouging, it's world wide and no one has done anything about it.



ok Kamala Harris

I pay zero attention to anything she says, if she said that then she was correct.
Anyone with a brain can look at corporate profit margins since the Ukraine war broke out.

Global supply issues due to Russian oil leaving the economy, every business saw increased costs, many saw an opportunity to inflate prices well beyond those costs.

so youre saying every company big and small all just agreed to raise prices at the same time just because they liked more money???


again, youre wrong


the only thing youre right about is the ukraine russia war caused prices to rise, but not because of businesses finally having the opportunity to raise prices, they didnt, they had to raise prices to keep afloat to keep up with prices of everything rising


name some of these corporations that are causing the prices of everything to raise

In 2021, the US imported about 626,000 barrels per day of oil (7% of imports) from Russia8. To put this amount into context, the US produces 75% of its crude oil supply and 90% of its natural gas supply domestically. This gas is used to generate 38% of its electricity demand9,10. So while gasoline prices are dictated by global oil markets, many analysts consider the US to be recently energy independent10,11,12. However, we argue that this is not the case due to the critical roles Russia plays in globalized supply chains.

....this value doubled to 8% with the added amount of indirect energy from Russian oil embedded in other goods imported by the US that year13.

It astounds me that you can't work it out, the price increases you are literally whining about, the profit margins are also there, and it's WORLD WIDE, you want to blame biden so badly when the same issues are happening in my country..
Now my government has literally called out the corporations for this market gouging and called for an inquest.
