"inflation?"

You mean PRICE GOUGING :birdman:

Don't let the 1% control the narrative.
It was the consequences of printing all that extra money. Waves of people was getting all that unemployment and stimulus checks ended up quiting their jobs. Businesses couldn't find workers ended up paying workers more and raised their prices.

This ain't inflation. Those companies were making 300 to 600% increase of profits from 2020 to end of 2021. Those tiny stimulus checks ain't the cause of price jumps; its greed. Corporations were given trillions of collars over the last 40 years from stimulus plans and tax breaks, and no one said a word.

Stop talking points from the 1%

The cost to produce goods went up as companies encountered more difficulty in production due to a reduction in workers driving up the cost. People had enough money from unemployment and stimulus checks to quit their shytty jobs. It is most certainly an aftereffect of all the new money they printed. People were making more from unemployment than they made at their jobs enabling them to quit after it ran out.

It wasn't just the stimulus checks it was also unemployment paying out more money than people made working. Our society requires a working class to function properly. You start giving money to the lower middle class and working poor in quantities where they don't have to work and apparently they'll stop working. If there's nobody to replace them that's a problem.

The interview I posted laid out why you're wrong. I want to add to it that the extended unemployment ended over a year ago and prices are still going up. The media is selling that as the reason to cover for the obvious price gouging.

If it was just a rise in the cost of doing business they wouldn't be making record profits.
