@LI-Rick posted:As always, Stan is right on the money. Anyone paying attention knows that Jerome Powell is full of sh-t. Real inflation is closer to 20-25%. Look at the prices in the grocery store. Beef up 50%, chicken 30%. Home heating oil last season, about $1.60 a gallon, this year $2.90 and climbing. At 1200 gallons a season, that’s real money for a lot of people.
Rick's not going out of his mind, I had (another) "hyper-inflation is here" post I put up after an extremely long day of dealing with... well... runaway inflation. It was too much for a car website so I took it down after Rick responded.
So, in the spirit of this post on this site:
"Yep, fuel sure has gone up, but not as much as some other things".
