Average wages. The low end is still low & people on fixed incomes don’t get wage increases.

Really? Like this wouldn’t have been an issue no matter who won in 20? But it is coming down and all
you clowns do is bitch.
And that article talks about groceries. What about housing & transpo? Both up like crazy.

Another article on the "stickiness" of some grocery prices...gets a bit nuanced with "Off Brand"
choices, etc....nonetheless, the U.S. under JB has a better story to tell than most leaders of other countries...and certainly better than the guy he's running against who's only economic move was to make sure Corps and the most wealthy could feel even more secure...a plan he intends to double down on.
How do the MAGAs not see themselves on the losing end of that scenario?

The creep’s tariffs plan would drive inflation through the roof, and hurt the most vulnerable, who
that clown Eli is now trying to embrace for political reasons.
It wouldn't matter, the typical low information voter votes on feelings not facts.

Do you understand the concept of year over year?
Doubtful.
Of course not. It's higher than 2.4% this Q, but also added to 20% already since Trump.

WTF a piece of shit. 65 mil who don't have wage & depend on fixed income would kick its author's ass
Also, inflation is higher than expected in September, especially the core consumer price index.
Yes, let D talk about inflation in campaign. Let's see how voters react. Harris is dumb, but she is smart enough to avoid anything related to economy.
$1 under Trump is about $.80 today.
Dems don’t understand how it works.
You are a moron. Significant strides have been made to reduce inflation and wages are up. The
average worker is doing fine with low unemployment, inflation under 2.5% and higher wages. Those are facts and the D’s should emphasize them. They should also emphasize what the Orange tariff plan will do to those on fixed incomes and everyone else. It’s the most regressive tax on those that can least afford it and will cause inflation to explode.
My wife and I are average income and are not doing "fine"
Things still cost way more than they did 4 years ago and our incomes have not kept up, typical of average Americans. But then again, I don't expect you or others with healthy six-figure incomes to be able to relate.
When were you ever doing fine? You bitched about your economic situation and how you got there for
years.
Exactly. As are most in our income category. You have no clue
And although I keep applying for higher paying jobs I'm qualified for, I'm facing serious age discrimination. But you don't care at all about that kind of discrimination, like most lefties.
KH’s Priority is your demographic…DJT’s focus is the top end…just remember
what he did last time.
Are your parents still working to earn wages? If so, why they have to? If not, get my point. Loser.

My parents are deceased you smacked ass. People on fixed incomes are always squeezed
which is why you work, save, and invest to provide for yourself when you are older. You advocating a bump in SS to help them out? Doubt it.
I'm sorry, loser. But my point is not about your parents. It's about 65 million people who are hit
hard by this inflation. The author completely excluded them and ignored their pain. On the other hand, if your parents were still alive, i.e. they were two of these 65 million, you would not have posted this piece of shit.
Uhm my parents were smart enough to provide for themselves when they got older. Sorry for those that
Didn’t or couldn’t and who apparently you don’t want to help. Bottom line though, economically things are looking up which disturbs you mightily as you look at everything through your warped political views. You are a former Chicom killer, so your views matter not to me. Run along and read Epoch Times.
Nonsense. Inflation reduced purchasing power of EVERYONE including your patents.
Your saying your parents saved enough to weather the storm. But a loss of purchasing power for fixed incomes people is still a loss. Didn't your parents want to leave some of their savings to you? If so, either they have to change their life style a little bit or you will get less savings from them. This is the situation of my neighbor. My neighbor a fixed income couple. They have pretty good pension (not cola adjusted) and SS. But their goal of saving is not just about kepping their life style. They also want to leave some of their savings to their grandchildren.
Liberals not just are math illiterate. They also are economic illiterate. You're a typical one of them. In another word, too stupid.
The fact is that our inflation was caused by COVID and Putin’s attack on Ukraine…
…it got as high as 9+%, and is now only 2.4%…a healthy economy for ALL Americans plans on ~2% inflation. You should know this.
Core inflation is still 3.3%, but you wouldn't understand that.

You are like a moth attracted to a flame. So easy to burn. You really hate the fact that employment
and wages are up and inflation is down purely for political reasons. You are a terrible American. Like your hero.
If he gets elected unlike you if Harris wins, I want it to continue. It won’t though if he enacts his tariff taxes.
The number is a fact. Can't help you don't like. But continue to babble on

So is the inflation rate of 2.4% that unAmerican cultists like you don’t want.

You are dumb as hell. That's the number regardless of who wants it.
