Why does everything feel so unaffordable now? I argue that the real problem isn’t simply that houses, food and everything else cost more. It’s that your money buys less. Inflation quietly destroys purchasing power — and then government tells you to look to government for the solution.

It's the government that causes the inflation by borrowing and/or printing money. So, government can solve it by not doing that 😭

These blues states especially Ca have deliberately raised taxes and the cost of everything created by legislators and the governor

We need true capitalism

Disparate issues

Inflation's definitely part of it...but feels like there's more to why times are tougher than just prices and paychecks not matching up.

I'm surprised you didn't blame Calvinism for inflation in this post and say they are false Christians.

here's the thing—inflation hits everywhere. even wood prices are up. same piece of oak costs double...that's purchasing power quietly rotting away.

You're right Dinesh - inflation is a silent thief. As someone who works hard for every dollar, it's frustrating watching costs rise while pay stays flat.

LETS NOT FORGET ITS YOUR SALARY OR HOURLY WAGE THAT DOESN'T BUY AS MUCH BECAUSE IT DOESN'T GO UP LIKE THE COST OF GOODS. PAY PEOPLE MORE AND PROBLEM WILL SOLVE ITSELF. BUT THE GREEDY COMPANY OW NERS WILL MAKE LESS.

Things cost more and your money buys less are two ways of saying the same thing. The real questions are why incomes aren’t keeping up with prices and why essentials like housing are so expensive. Rewording the problem doesn’t explain it.

You go high enough or low enough it always comes to one. It doesn’t have to be that way… so don’t allow it.

Dinesh is correct.

Jfc you’re an idiot.
