🚨 Canada's Restaurant Reckoning Over 4,000 restaurants are projected to close this year, after 7,000 already shut down in 2025. Not because demand disappeared but because costs didn’t stop rising while consumers ran out of room. Food prices. Wages. Rent. Insurance. Margins are gone. 41% are operating at a... show more

Trump just launched TrumpRx, website to buy prescription drugs at discounted prices (out of pocket, not with insurance). A few dozen listed now, but site says more are coming soon. Rena Conti, an associate professor at Boston University tells me: "TrumpRx’s offerings are very limited, fewer than 50 drugs listed, and most are niche products used by few patients. Many are available in generic form at even lower prices or already available to consumers at low or even very low prices elsewhere. This suggests it pays for consumers to check their insurance coverage and ask their regular doctor or pharmacist before they use this service" ABC News

The food giant Sysco that already supplies the food for the majority of restaurants you likely go to is about to get even bigger “Sysco just announced a $29 billion deal to buy a huge competitor, Restaurant Depot — if it moves forward, the deal could leave consumers and restaurant owners with even fewer choices and higher prices” “All across the country, restaurants are overcharging you for the exact same jalapeño popper, and this trend is about to get even worse.” “Cisco works with huge food producers who can manufacture massive quantities of say, meat or strawberries or frozen foods that blanket restaurants from New York to Alaska, and that means we're often getting served the same food everywhere. Even this falafel I ordered from an award-winning Greek restaurant, pretty sure it came off the back of a Cisco truck”

“people who get these SNAP benefits can't use that money to buy chips. It means demand goes down for those foods because the government was subsidizing consumers to buy junk food.” “What does Pepsi do in response to a decline in demand for its products? It lowers prices.” “That's how the free market works. The government subsidized consumers to buy junk food by giving them money to pay for it. And so that allowed the companies that sell that type of food to charge higher prices. When the government reduces the subsidy that it provides. Now the companies have to cut their prices.” “Well, if it works with junk food, it works the same way with everything. Everything the government subsidizes costs more as a direct result of the subsidy. Why is education so expensive, particularly colleges? Because the government subsidizes students to go to college.” “The government arranges for guaranteed loans or directly finances low interest rate loans to make it easy for people to borrow money to pay for college. That means that colleges could charge more because their customers are getting money from the government to buy their product. What would happen if the government stopped doing that? The government stopped giving out grants and loans. Well, just what Pepsi did. They'd have to cut their prices because demand would go down.” Peter Schiff

Skyrocketing diesel prices are hitting farmers hard, and the effects won’t stop at the farm gate. “We have to harvest, we have to run the machines, we have to use the diesel.” “The machine behind me uses 200 gallons a day. So we’ll harvest for about 30 days.” “So there’s 6,000 gallons.” And fuel is only one part of the equation. Farmers are already facing rising costs for fertilizer, chemicals, and other inputs. The system leaves farmers with little control over the prices they pay or the prices they receive. They can absorb those increases for only so long before higher costs ripple through the food supply chain and hit consumers at the grocery store. Meanwhile, some of the largest corporations controlling essential parts of that system are reporting billions in profits during the same crises driving costs higher. Farmers and consumers shouldn’t keep getting squeezed while powerful corporations turn every new crisis into another opportunity to expand their margins.

SERIOUSLY! So you are telling me that Target, just now, is deciding to cut prices on over 5,000 of their products to lure customers back? Maybe those people who blamed inflation on over-greedy corporations were at least partially right all along! What I find ironic is that Target says they are doing this because “ consumers are feeling pressured to make the most of their budget.” They apparently want to be praised for doing this, now! Why didn’t they do this over a year and a half ago if they really cared about the consumers? The list of products that will see price cuts include bread, diapers, coffee, fruit, meat, pet food, vegetables, and more.

A Walgreens pharmacist barely holds back tears. I've lost count of the number of pharmacists that I've seen cry or almost in tears, because their pharmacies are forced to close as our government fails to stop the monopolization of the pharmacy industry. America's pharmacy access is being robbed from America by insurance companies that merged with mail order pharmacies that they often force to. The truth is that local pharmacies are busier than ever, but are being forced to close, so insurance companies can monopolize and distort drug prices. This has to stop.

This is such an interesting point that Powell made yesterday that people missed. He said that "the tariffs are mostly being paid by the companies that sit between the exporter and the consumer... All of those companies and entities in the middle will tell you that they have every intention of passing that through [to the consumer] in time." What he was describing is the hidden squeeze happening in the supply chain. Importers, wholesalers, and retailers are paying higher costs upfront and hoping they can eventually raise prices enough to shift the burden. The problem is that consumers are already tapped out. Household budgets are under pressure from rising debt, delinquencies, and wages that do not stretch far enough. Trying to pass along tariff costs in this environment would push demand even lower. Businesses know this, which is why many of them are absorbing the costs instead. But when they do that, their margins shrink, and it becomes harder to sustain operations without making cuts elsewhere. When profitability gets pressured, management has few options. They cannot control tariffs, and they cannot force consumers to spend more. What they can control are expenses. That begins with slowing hiring and scaling back growth plans, then cutting hours and overtime. If conditions do not improve, the inevitable step becomes layoffs. We are already seeing the early signs of this play out. Companies in trade-exposed industries like manufacturing, shipping, and retail are quietly trimming staff. These are the first cracks, but history shows that once the cycle begins, it rarely stays contained. If tariffs remain in place and consumers stay weak, the ripple effects spread further into the labor market. This is the real chain reaction in my opinion, Powell was hinting at. Tariffs may look like a policy directed abroad, but the costs end up at home. They filter through supply chains, eat away at margins, and eventually show up in the form of job losses.

🚨 THEY SAY IT’S A CRISIS — BUT THEY’RE CASHING IN While people across the UK struggle at the pump… The government is taking more than ever. Fuel prices rise… And so does the tax take. Not because rates increased. But because higher prices mean higher revenue. Up to half of what you pay at the pump goes straight to the Treasury. That means: As your costs surge… Their income surges. At the same time, the government is: Accusing businesses of profiteering Summoning fuel and supermarket leaders Talking about “support” But avoiding the one thing that would actually make a difference: Reducing the burden. There are levers they could pull: Cut fuel duty Increase domestic production Stabilise supply Instead? They are managing the optics. Not the problem. And the consequences are already showing: Fuel stations under pressure Hauliers absorbing unsustainable costs Businesses passing prices downstream Which leads to one outcome: Higher prices for everything. This is not just about fuel. It’s about the entire system. Because when energy costs rise… Transport becomes expensive Food becomes expensive Living becomes expensive And when businesses can no longer operate sustainably… They shut down. This is how pressure builds. Quietly. Until it isn’t quiet anymore. The question is not whether this affects you. It’s how far it goes. And how prepared you are when it does.

The Bank of Japan says it is raising rates, or at least is threatening to raise them to hold back consumers from spending so that their robust demand doesn’t create more inflation. But consumers are themselves holding back because they know their incomes are nowhere near enough to make up for past, present, and any future price changes that are supply and currency matters, not actual inflation. Thus, household spending, already in the dumps, gets worse especially now after the tariff distortions have passed into global payback. In reality, BoJ is targeting the yen but doing so hoping increasingly favorable interest rates inside of Japan will strengthening JPY. Only, JPY is completely ignoring interest rates.

“They’re telling you this is temporary. It’s not.” Gas prices aren’t spiking because of a bad week, this is a structural shortage. Global supply is still down millions of barrels while demand hasn’t slowed. Even with emergency reserves being used, the gap isn’t closing. Experts are now warning oil could hit $160–$175. That puts the GTA on track for ~$2.40/L — not as a peak, but as the new pressure point needed to kill demand. And here’s the part no one wants to say: Even if conflicts end tomorrow, the damage is already done. Supply chains don’t snap back overnight. We’re looking at elevated energy prices through 2026… and that means inflation isn’t going anywhere either. This isn’t a temporary spike. It’s a reset.

🚨 FUEL SHORTAGES HIT AUSTRALIA — CRIME ALREADY RISING Australia is starting to feel the pressure. Reports show: • Criminals siphoning petrol from cars on the streets • 164 petrol stations without diesel • Supply disruptions pushing food prices higher This is how it begins. Fuel shortages don’t stay at the pump. They spread: Transport slows Deliveries drop Prices rise Crime follows Businesses are already cutting deliveries. Some goods are arriving only twice a week instead of daily. And officials are now openly discussing: Fuel rationing. This is not chaos. But it is the early stage of breakdown. Because when fuel becomes unstable… Everything else follows. And what’s happening in Australia today… Can happen anywhere next

‼️More Inflation Incoming.‼️ Even the Bank of England admits it. So here are three things worth understanding. 1. Inflation usually ends at wages. Prices can keep rising for as long as people can keep paying them. If your wages rise at the same pace as prices, your standard of living doesn’t really change. But if prices keep rising while wages lag behind, your purchasing power falls. You don’t notice it all at once. It’s a slow squeeze. Every pay packet buys a little bit less than it did before. Then people start cutting back, demanding higher pay, or simply going without. Ask yourself this… If employers can fill vacancies with people willing to work for lower wages, what does that do to the bargaining power of existing workers? 2. High prices eventually solve high prices. Not because politicians step in. Because consumers do. When enough people refuse to pay the asking price, demand falls. People buy less. They switch to cheaper alternatives. Or they stop buying altogether. Businesses then have two choices: lower prices if they still can, or if they can’t make a profit, close their doors. 3. Not all inflation hurts equally. You can postpone buying a new phone. You can’t postpone paying your mortgage. You can skip a holiday. You can’t stop buying food or paying your electricity bill. Inflation in luxury goods is annoying. Inflation in essentials changes lives. If inflation continues, expect more pressure on household budgets, more businesses struggling, and some jobs disappearing as people cut back on spending. My advice? Don’t wait until you’re forced to make changes. Pay down expensive debt if you can. Build some savings. Review your spending now, not when circumstances do it for you. The people who usually cope best aren’t the ones hoping everything goes back to normal. They’re the ones who prepare before everyone else realises they need. Hope isn’t a financial strategy. Preparation is.

🚨 BREAKING: FUEL SHORTAGES SPREAD ACROSS AUSTRALIA 7News reports that over 160 petrol stations across Victoria have run out of fuel. Demand has surged by 300–400%. And the impact is already visible: • Empty pumps across multiple locations • Long queues forming for remaining supply • Households cutting back on travel • Food prices rising as transport costs increase Officials say supply isn’t the issue — panic buying is. But for people on the ground… The result is the same: No fuel. Higher prices. Disruption to daily life. This is how it starts. Not with total collapse… But with pressure building across the system: Fuel → Transport → Food → Cost of living And once that chain begins… It’s hard to stop. Australia is now feeling it. The question is: Who’s next?

🚨 UK FLIGHTS UNDER PRESSURE — FUEL CRISIS STARTING TO HIT Jet fuel prices are surging — and it’s now being felt on the ground. At London Southend Airport, operations are still running… But the warning signs are clear. What’s happening: • Global jet fuel prices have spiked sharply since the Iran conflict • The UK relies heavily on imported aviation fuel • A significant share comes from the Middle East And here’s the key pressure point: Supply chains are tightening — not broken, but under strain Right now: • Flights are still operating normally • Airports say contingency plans are in place • Airlines are protected short-term (fuel bought in advance) But cracks are starting to appear: • Some UK routes already cancelled • Summer prices rising fast • Industry warning this could escalate This is the phase most people miss: Early pressure. Not chaos. Not shutdown. But the moment things start to shift. Because once fuel becomes uncertain… Everything connected to it becomes uncertain. And that includes your summer travel plans.

Farmers are selling their pre-purchased fertilizer at double what they paid instead of planting a crop. Let that sink in. It is more profitable to sit out the season and flip your input costs than to put seed in the ground. Soybean farmers lost $100 an acre last year. Corn farmers are looking at $50 to $100 losses this year. So what is the response? Switch from corn to soybeans. Soybeans make their own nitrogen. They do not need the fertilizer corn demands. The problem is we are already oversupplied on soybeans. More soybeans on a flooded market just drives prices lower. Fertilizer prices have gone through the roof. The Strait of Hormuz disruptions made it worse. Farmers who locked in fertilizer early are reselling it instead of using it. That is how broken the commodity food system has become.

🚨 FAST FOOD BROKE AMERICA - AND THEY’D RATHER LET THEIR STORES DIE THAN LOWER PRICES A guy breaks down exactly why so many fast food chains are collapsing - and it’s not the economy. It’s because they jacked prices sky-high… and refused to bring them back down. He says: • “Me and my son went to Chipotle - $52.64 for TWO bowls and TWO drinks.” • “Denny’s was over $60 for breakfast. At DENNY’S.” • “Fast food is more expensive than sit-down restaurants now.” • “Chili’s gives you a full lunch for $9.99. Fast food can’t do that?” • “These places squeezed customers dry… and now they’re shocked people stopped going.” He claims stores would literally go out of business before admitting they overpriced everything and that’s exactly what’s happening: closures, layoffs, bankruptcies, empty dining rooms. Meanwhile the places that lowered prices (Chili’s, BJ’s, Red Lobster happy hour) are PACKED. The wild part? He’s not wrong. People are avoiding fast food altogether - not because they want to… but because it’s cheaper to go anywhere else. Be honest - what was the ONE fast food bill that finally made you say “yeah I’m done”?

If the Nigerian government, under President Tinubu, can spend even 20% of what is being spent on the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway on rehabilitating existing roads, we would not have as many bad roads as we have today. Look at the number of businesses suffering because transportation costs are so high due to bad roads. Food prices will continue to rise when farmers and businesses cannot easily transport their goods because there are no good roads. Imagine spending trillions of naira on a new road—reportedly billions of naira per kilometre—when there are already so many existing roads that could be rehabilitated to make life easier for Nigerians. But when you talk about it, they will come after you. Anyway, Nigerians, it is up to you now. The choice is yours.

Buttigieg: Usually you're trying to fight those kinds of price effects that consumers are facing, not doing what the Trump administration is doing, which is actively causing them. Vladimir Putin launched a war. The result was that there were supply shocks and oil went up, and then we all did everything that we could in the administration, and all of us as Americans, did what we could to deal with that. Here you have a very different situation.
