It is not "transitory' or caused by the pandemic. It is being caused by idiots in Washington. And it hurts already.

Max

For most people it is, especially those who work for a living and those on fixed incomes. But Joe Biden doesn't care, he still thinks he is a truck driver, which he never has been, but his dementia says otherwise.

Larry Sabulsky

inflation is always a problem, but this one has been caused by the ignorant actions of Brandon's administration.

Vernon Taylor

Of course it is. Why even ask? To say otherwise is a suspension of disbelief. Such as to say we have a functioning president.

Eclectic come from the Greek: To select. Ancient philosophers who were relative in their thinking of doctrines. What library do you use? Work Cited. “Eclectic.” Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary, Merriam-Webster, https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/eclectic. Accessed 2 Dec. 2021.

Eclecticism is distinct from syncretism, the attempt to reconcile or combine systems, in that it does not attempt to resolve the contradictions between them. Therefore, to deny inflation exists, does not resolve the fact that it does in fact exist.

Yes, because high gas prices have raised the cost of everything we use. That, coupled with Brandon's high inflation, we all are suffering. The sad thing is, the lower income, and those on fixed incomes, are suffering the most.

Belinda Kitchen

Yes it's crazy . Here in Moberly gas is 3.11$ to 3.14$ a gallon. In Macon it 3.07$ . Our gas wasn't this high when Trump was in office. Biden you made this a lot worse and here you say your helping the people How ? May I ask ?

Max

Biden and his followers, are shoving communism down our throats, so we can all be equal, equally poor, except for him and his Elites, that is. He has sold America, to China and Russia.

Kevin Davis

I farm everything we use this year has gone up. Fuel actually is one of the lowest increases. Anhydrous ammonia has more than tripled dry fertilizer has doubled chemicals are much higher also. Dont hear about that any where

While gas prices are high, they certainly are not as high as they have been before when we were paying almost $5.00 a gallon.

Max

RBOB Gas, stock market price of wholesale gasoline. It can be looked at, as far back as July 2005. We were energy independent when Trump left office, and wholesale gasoline was less than half of what it is now.

Max

That was between 2008 through 2014, during the Obama reign. During Trump's four years it was never as high as it is now. Thank you for pointing that out. Let's go Brandon!
