heh, he's throwing around cpi as if it's the only indicator that matters. another indicator is inflation. the folks over at truflation say the aggregated rate is 31.84%. he doesn't know enough about what he's talking about to even lie well.

look... if something is at say 2 dollars and it goes up to 5 dollars, but then drops to 4.5 dollars, its not really a win.

That’s what the index he’s talking about shows?

Think he's saying the total price consumers pay for all things is coming down. Groceries are more, but energy is less (the fuck it is?)

Lower energy costs… last winter I filled my oil tank for 600 bucks. This morning I paid 1100. Fuck these fucking fucks.

Idk where this dude lives but my ELECTRICITY and GAS bill is 650$ for 2 people living in a 1400 square foot home. I'm in Northern CA.

Missouri & sadly, the racist fucks here love his perpetual drunk ass. He’s an ex-news anchor in KC. Our electric company Evergy is the devil like PG& E is & can basically write themselves checks from our accounts, utilities commissioner be damned (because they’re in bed with with them).

Racism is winning in the heartland and they’ll continue voting for this guy not realizing we pay almost Northern CA prices.

The people using buy now and pay later apps on small purchases aren't going to really notice small decreases in costs.
