Grocery Store Inflation

Russian knock off versions though. Hard pass

 

I am talking about real meat, not processed food stuffs. I gave up beer a long while ago... but I do miss the taste of it.

 

I checked at least 2 of them myself... they are owned and operated by Liberals. Nothing you post will change that.

 

You will need to post a link to evidence proving your assertion. The time to stop telling or repeating disinformation is now.

 

Well, that just put the ball rather solidly in @Gatorrick22 's court. Many will be anxiously awaiting his response.

 

Decent beer around here has gone up but good whiskey has stayed pretty consistent.

 

These fact checkers are dishonest and lie routinely and more often against republicans in politics.

What disinformation? You routinely allow for "disinformation" to run-amuck here when you let titles like "The MAGA Cult Explained." Yeah, that's not "disinformation," it's just a flat out insulting lie. Prove that MAGA is a cult, Lacuna, or take that title and OP down.

I've posted that information several times before already. I see no need to repeat that work for you. Those "fact checking sites" are owned by Liberals.

Why don't you force other people here to research... However, if there is a "silver lining" here. One, of the two, is worse than the other one. In that sense they are not equal.

The two pioneering fact-checking organizations are affiliated with nonprofit groups. Based at the University of Pennsylvania, FactCheck.org was established by the nonprofit Annenberg Public Policy Center. Although it now accepts donations from the public, the private Annenberg Foundation has been its main benefactor, giving the project $87,502,844 since 2004.

Its competitor PolitiFact is a project of the Tampa Bay Times, which is owned by the Poynter Institute for Media Studies Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. According to its IRS filings, in 2014 Poynter had 51 employees, $4.7 million in revenue, a budget of $6.9 million, and $38.2 million in assets. Poynter’s president is Timothy A. Franklin, who joined the organization in 2014 after serving as managing editor of Bloomberg News in Washington, D.C.

Major philanthropies funding Poynter include the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation ($7,535,000 since 2003); Ford Foundation ($2,415,000 since 2000); Robert R. McCormick Tribune Foundation ($2,190,000 since 2009); Peter and Carmen Lucia Buck Foundation Inc. ($300,000 since 2013); Tides Foundation and Tides Center ($275,053 since 2008); Omidyar Network Fund Inc. ($150,000 since 2013); Carnegie Corp. of New York ($150,000 since 2009); and Annie E. Casey Foundation ($140,000 since 2006). Though FactCheck.org is the granddaddy of such websites, it has been eclipsed recently by PolitiFact in attention from mainstream media outlets, which use the two sites to supplement their reporting.

 

"These fact checkers are dishonest and lie routinely and more often against republicans in politics."

Rick, you posted a bio for fact checkers that did not at all address this claim. Seems your assertion is that any site owned by liberals must be "dishonest and lie routinely". You present zero evidence of that.

 

Could see another huge spike in egg prices as avian flu continues to force producers to cull their flocks in massive numbers (almost 2 million in the story below). If i remember correctly, that was a big part of the last egg price spike (but most people just blamed Biden). Alarmingly, the bird flu now seems to be infecting cattle.

Interesting that you pulled direct quotes from a website without attribution. Sorry, that will not get you into Harvard.

It looks like you stole borrowed the work of the Capital Research Center. I certainly can appreciate why you didn't acknowledge them as your source.
Dishonest Fact-Checkers

Kind of ironic you complain about the supposed dishonesty of fact checkers when you are taking someone else's work.

 

I forgot the post the link? Oops, my mistake. I will go back and post it.

Dishonest Fact-Checkers

 

Holy shit. I was just talking to the wife about those damn hash browns!!
McDonald’s is now more pricey than chic fil a for breakfast anyways.
Mobile app or they get ya.

 

With 303,000 new jobs, unemployment dropping, wage growth still 4.1%, energy prices on a steep rise again and record stock prices, there will be more grocery store inflation. It’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of how much.

 

Here is the WSJ showing that groceries are up more than some on here are willing to admit to.

You just don't get it do you?????? These are all made up!!! You must listen to what the chamber is telling you. Do not look with your owns eyes or peek into your own pocketbook for the answers. They are right up here in a chart about how great Biedenomics are and it is only a messaging issue not anything real!!!

 

Why do you think that they set the baseline as 2019?

 

Yeah you've got a big thread with folks saying inflation's no big deal, that rarely/never eat out any more and only shop BOGO's.

 

Don't worry, we already see the "everything is great" fanboys saying don't believe your grocery bill, believe the CPI instead LOL.

 

CPI only matters to the team in power, if you grocery shop at all you know it sucks.

 

Inflation after the supply chain issues of COVID? That's shocking news. Supplier margin grabbing and taking advantage of COVID & international conflict? Even more shocking. It sucks but blaming administrations is sort of a mindless politicking game. My question is always "how are we doing versus similar countries?"

All that being said I've heard from several sources that Kroger delivery is worth a try. Better prices than Publix and was told better produce as well. I'm going to give it a go.
