I'd say a vast majority of the statist cucks believe inflation propaganda.

No because I have a working set of eyes and can clearly see the cost of everything has gone up a lot in the past few years?

>>56179623
It’s honestly not even inflation. People are just now lazier thanks to all the technology these days. I work two jobs with my second job taking up both my Friday nights and full Saturday and Sunday. People don’t understand that if you want MORE you need to work MORE.

Stop complaining about lunch prices, I usually just fast all day and only eat a small meal at the end of the day. People want a house yet refuse to make sacrifices for it.

>>56179654
lmao

>If you remove all the measurements the line goes down!

>>56179654
>just don’t eat goy

>>56179623
Yes. If you tell everyone to worry about and prepare for inflation, you can magically raise prices by 5-100% and they'll pay it. Is it actually that much more expensive for producers? No. But consumers have no idea so of course they'll just pay higher prices.

>>56179633
i wonder what people like Krugman and Cramer think when they look in the mirror at the end of the day

>>56179633
>just remove food, energy, shelter and cars

>>56179692

Eating one meal a day is incredibly unhealthy.

>>56179719
its great for testosterone and HGH since insulin is antagonistic to both. you just have to be sure to get a daily dose of calories in that one meal. what makes you think it would be unhealthy?

>>56179676
Retard alert. Gasoline is a primary input for a majority of the economy, guess who practically killed all domestic oil leases in 2021. I'm not even bringing up the fact that 40% of all dollars were created in the last 3 years.

>>56179623
>the fight against inflation still has a long way to go
How the everliving FUCK do people still not know that the purpose of all this is to enslave everyone without access to a money printer. God damn I'm completely rooting for the NWO at this point, the masses absolutely deserve it.

>>56179719
>not eating around the clock is unhealthy

I was bored so I decided to track how much my rent has been increasing since I moved to Argentina back in 2017.

Oh christ if you faggots can't have a conversation about inflation or the economy without making it a Dems vs Repubs thing just please fuck off back to >>>/pol/

It's genuinely pitiful how you make everything into some false dichotomy

>>56179782
All number are in ARS obviously

>>56179783
It's like they don't understand what PROFIT means. They're all fucking landlords probably.

I laugh when Americans complain about 5% inflation

Nigga is you trolling?

>I'm not even bringing up the fact that 40% of all dollars were created in the last 3 years.
Good thing. I wonder what caused the high inflation?

>>56179623
>OV VEY DONT BELIEVE WHAT YOUR LYING EYES ARE TELLING YOU

Every time I hit up the store I'm walking away with $50 dollars worth of groceries that would be $20-25 5-6 years ago

>>56179801
>I laugh when Americans complain about 5% inflation
But it isn't 5%. In the past 2-3 years the prices of many things have quadrupled or more.

You get monthly rent increases?

>>56179833
Combination of increasing money supply and oil prices caused inflation. Le ebil capitalists just deciding to charge more for goods is a literal retard tier argument.

>>56179794
>>56179801
So what you’re essentially saying is the situation in the U.S can go 10000x worse and YET we won’t see a single riot due to inflation?
I guess (((their))) control is just too strong, so probably not alarming. Seems like they’re in total control with their distraction mechanisms.

>>56179862
So.......you just don't believe that business owners could possibly ever take advantage of anyone? Lmao. Bet you pay like $100 for haircuts and see nothing wrong with it.

>>56179861
Yes, and that's just rent.
I didn't include utilitiew like gas, electricity and internet as well as groceries, etc., which increase almost every month.

>>56179878
If a barbershop decided to charge $100 to price gouge their competitors would simply charge less. You're assuming that competitors in industries with small barriers of entry would work together in the real world because you've never heard of game theory and the prisoner's dilemma.

*Record* profits in *inflated* money, set against inflated costs.

Bro it's 2023 and most industries are dominated by a small handful of companies that are almost all owned by the same few conglomerates. If you don't understand that you're either in the third world or working for the conglomerates.

>>56179800
>They're all fucking landlords probably.
I am a landchad actually though kek. Get fucked rentcuck, you're too retarded to ever make it.

>>56179623
at this rate only millionaires will be able to afford beef.

>>56179948
Bet you see no issue with overcharging for a virtual necessity. Maybe I'm poor but at least I'm not a fucking piece of shit.

>>56179930
>I cant imagine how such an economy would work.
It doesn't
>How do you plan ahead?
You don't
>How do people save money. Do they put it in gold?
They don't. People just buy everything on credit and pay in installments and pile on more debt with loans and more loans.

>>56179633
I guess inflation was just a passing fad that went the way of the fax machine. Thanks for the wisdom, Krugman!

>>56179972
oh well

>>56179782
why did you move to argentina? seems pretty insane

>>56179967
>Bet you see no issue with overcharging for a virtual necessity.
I charge what tenants are willing to pay. Your fault if you can't compete with other rentcucks in the market.
>Maybe I'm poor but at least I'm not a fucking piece of shit.
Maybe instead of moralfagging like a prissy bitch you should grow a brain and learn how to make some money.

>>56180017
Let's just say it wasn't voluntary

>>56180072
There are some things wrong with it, according to Dr Peter Attia.

It's definitely terrible for muscle growth, maybe if you eat steak which takes all day to digest. Otherwise you certainly don't have enough protein in your bloodstream to build muscle. Bodybuilders eat 5 small meals per day.

>>56180103
>leftcuck has delusions of grandeur about brutally murdering people richer, more successful and better looking than his incel self
Fixed. That's enough space to accommodate a few poor, helpless rapefugees and I'm sure your wife would appreciate having a few bigger dicks around to stretch out her holes since you're clearly lacking in that department.

>>56180223
Cope. Even if it were true, it doesn't change the fact that every rentoid if given the choice would become a landlord. It's always the biggest moralizing faggots that are also the biggest hypocrites.

>>56180223
it’s a doggy dog world

>>56179623

Yes, they really do.
>>56179639
Your beliefs are transitory

>>56179633
Checked. You can reliably confirm that anything krugman says is false, so this doesn’t look good, if tweet is real

>>56180258
Hahahahaha do you really believe that deluded shit? Man come on, get real. You charge people more money than they'd spend on a mortgage and justify it to yourself by appealing to Muh Market. Never mind that it's people like you directly preventing those same people from owning that house because.......you bought it to rent out. Landlords are a special kind of self absorbed asshole and somehow everyone knows but them.

>>56179623
Inflation has been a complete nothing burger since bears have started to scream about it. But the chicken littles of the world always do this kind of shit

>>56180300
As I said, you're coping. Fix your life.

>>56180300
Its not that you’re wrong
it’s just you still believe that it shouldn’t be this way, and this is just how people are.

>>56180314
Lmao eat shit you fucking leech

>>56180341
I know people are this way, we're just greedy chimpanzees appealing to base instincts. It's just lame as fuck when people like this fag try to justify it. Just admit you love money and fucking your fellow man over

>>56180360
Kek seething obstinate bitch. You will never make it.
>>56180341
No he's not correct. His attitude is exactly why he will never make it. He automatically assumes that a landlord charging market rate for use of his property = exploitation, as if the tenants were forced to sign the leasing agreement. They weren't. If they can't afford it, then they need to move, or figure out how to make more. Simple as.

>>56180408
He’s probably going to burn in hell, don’t worry about it. Some people are just shitty, anon. No sense getting worked up over it

>>56180432
meant for
>>56180360

>>56180408
It is quite simply exploitative to buy up residential properties just to use them as rental income. You're ignoring that basic reality because it suits your situation. People can't afford to buy houses because people like you will pay above market price because banks will give you a loan first because they know you're going to try to squeeze as much money as possible out of tenants. Disingenuous as fuck.

>>56180457
I just think the Internet is sadly lacking in voices that push back against this shit, so the attitude just fizzles out and they think they're in the right

>>56179676
So this is the vaxxie cattle mental gymnastics behind inflation

>>56180479
I lived in my property then converted it to a rental when I moved somewhere else. Fuck off moralizing nigger.

>>56179692
>i wonder what people like Krugman and Cramer think when they look in the mirror at the end of the day
"That was some damn good blow"

>>56179633
Krugman is just doing a bit. The jews all laugh while the npcs believe it

>>56180510
And?? You still have more than one house and charge poorer people too much money to live in one of them. You'll justify this however you can because you're a greedy faggot but come on man, do you really not acknowledge what you're doing and how it affects other people?

>>56180508
Lmfao imagine believing that businesses won't fleece customers as much as they can get away with. Wow.

>>56180490
well, just look around kek
things aren’t really looking so good. There are bigger fish to fry than landlords, have some faith

>>56180522
I did not
>buy up residential properties just to use them as rental income
nor am I "charging too much", you brainlet. Like all leftcucks you claim I'm disingenuous while you misrepresent my situation and my motives. If you were smart you would figure out what you need to do to escape rentcucking, but I'm afraid it's beyond you. /biz/ is not for poorfag redditors, so I think it's about time you go the fuck back.

>>56180572
Not a leftoid but keep making assumptions yourself lol. Your motive is to use a virtual necessity as your source of income instead of actually working, like the people you're charging rent. Like all landlords you're completely ignoring the fact that people like you are physically preventing people from buying houses because you own it to speculate on rental income. But you also admitted to charging whatever the market will take, which is typically much higher than what the mortgage would be on the same house. And since rent doesn't count towards credit, you're preventing these people from counting a large portion of their income towards their chances for future home ownership. It's basic shit but of course you'll ignore it.

Jfc this board just gets worse by the hour. Filter the faggots ID and move on with your day.

I think the statistic is 13,000,000 vacant homes in the usa

>>56179919
Lol, thats what capitalist econ propaganda works in text books. In practice all the barbers see that other barbers raised their prices and raise theirs to match. Then they tell you (dumb money) that its beyond their control and were forced to raise prices because of "inflation". Then you (dumb money) falls for it every time.

>>56180661
Ohhh watch out here come the angry landlords

>>56180660
And no one can buy them because the banks are waiting for some asshole to buy a shitbox for $400k to rent it for $2,500/month

>>56179692
>heh stupid goyim

>>56180605
Like all leftoids you fundamentally have issues with property rights and the law of supply and demand. There is no reason why I should be forced to sell my old residence instead of converting it to a rental. Desu, small landlords are not your issue, the system is more fucked than you realize because
>easy credit for mortgages pumps house prices
>immigration pumps house prices
>zoning laws which restrict building more houses pumps house prices
>California techfags pump house prices
You have so many better targets for your ire than landchads kek. You should grow up and figure out how to succeed in the system unless you want to stay poor, because no revolution is coming to save you. I also have a job btw. Sneed.

>>56180727
See your perspective is all fucking warped from either being raised by a faggot landlord or from just becoming one yourself. It's not about being "forced" to sell your property, it's about acknowledging that being a landlord is parasite behavior and if you genuinely believe that everyone should have an opportunity to own their own house then you shouldn't want to own more than one since, very simply, you would physically be preventing someone else from owning it. But sure, blame literally everything else you possibly can instead of acknowledging your very clear contribution to the issue. Lmao.

>>56180743
Your perspective is warped by being raised by communist faggot or being a communist faggot yourself. Use of property (and maintainance thereof) is a service that landlords provide. If that is "parasitical" then so is every other instance of a service where there is a transaction and a component is taken as a fee, i.e. cost of business, which is absurd. No one is entitled to property if they don't have the means to acquire it, for instance if you are priced out of one area then you need to go somewhere cheaper (there are lots of cheaper places). It's telling that you fixate on landlords in particular and not the massive mortgage debt scheme propping up the whole charade.

“The growth of the Internet will slow drastically, as the flaw in ‘Metcalfe’s law’—which states that the number of potential connections in a network is proportional to the square of the number of participants—becomes apparent: most people have nothing to say to each other! By 2005 or so, it will become clear that the Internet’s impact on the economy has been no greater than the fax machine’s.”

>>56179623
This is definitely misleading. There’s no way eggs inflation is 6%. A year ago I was paying $5 for a dozen of eggs and now it’s $1.30

Chicken is also significantly cheaper than it was last year. I got a whole chicken on sale for $4 last week

I have 110k saved up and make 78k a year and only houses I can afford are small old pieces of shit.
