Businesses are just patching on to the inflation as an excuse for jacking up prices to retarded levels. No one should believe that supply chain issues and other bullshit is requiring businesses to mark up all their shit 20-50%.

The problem is that the markets are so distorted so nobody genuinely knows what prices to charge each other. Half of the economists think hyperinflation will kick in and the other half still think we’ll see a massive bullwhip and deflation.

if you think inflation is caused by price gauging you dont understand economics, your competitors just have to keep there prices lower than you and will start to seeing a shitton of business suddenly, scooping up market share and making up for the lower prices by volume, sadly you cant do that if the prices rise at the supplyer level and you all HAVE to pay more and you HAVE to increase your prices together with your competitors, the next thing you are going to say is that price controls are the way out lol

It's kind of based to be honest.
Most people don't believe in God, why should they be able to enjoy all these things that the Creator has given.
Its even better. Besides the governments artifically raising all food prices so you will spend all your money on a few items. The people convinced themselves that they should not eat meat.
Its like a child telling its father that he won't eat candy ever because its harmful to the climate.

I am 30 and have never owned a car.
Yet these obese faggots that only walk 10 minutes a day (From bed, to car, to home) telling me that I should not do this or do that because muh climate.

yes in some industries they do that alright, but that happens in industries where it is hard for competitors to start up, like in the tech industry etc, if supermarkets are colluding to sell there cheese at $2 while they get it at wholesale for 50 cents, it wont take long before a genius starts selling it for a dollar, anyways you can always follow the trail and see why it is that current prices are so high, is wholesales being "greedy" by marking up the prices? ok you go look at how much the factory charges ? are they doing it ? no ? ok you look at their cost of energy or you look at the material costs ? are they being "greedy" ? you can easily find out where the someone is trying to make the huge profit so prove they are not just adjusting for cost

Inflation is and has always been money supply. Every other explanation is retarded liberal cope to try to justify endless money printing and corruption and blaming it on the private sector.

I only ever buy chips on sale these days, sometimes supermarkets around here will do Doritos or other Frito Lay products 4/$10 or something like that. But I also refuse to pay full price just on principle, it's ridiculous how expensive some of that shit has become over the last couple years.

Diet Coke is also up to like $2.80 per 2L at Walmart. It's not even that much cheaper per liter (although I plan to get a larger CO2 tank and adapter that will be), but I got one of those soda machines and plan to primarily support my degen artificially sweetened fizzy water habit using it and generic flavors instead of continuing to give Coca Cola more of my money.
