13 bucks a pound for a run of the mill steak.. In Texas now.. and Social Security says there's no need for a COLA. ?.. Thanks I'll keep eating chicken until that's too expensive.
Im a trucker since 2016 rates for shipping have dropped to rock bottom. Wall Street is starving us out of business with these rate yet grocery prices are on the rise. Store arent losing any money their taking advantage of supply and demand because resturants are closed.
Try buy ham they want 3 times as much for half the weight
At first I thought this bald Kendis Gibson was CNN’s Victor Blackwell.
So you think we can just print money. Do you think we can just print food?
Another reason stop eating meat.
Now you are just covering this? My grocery bill increased $150 for same products. If you need assistance these bastardized government lying statistics will not include real inflation. A single having to pay rent is only can bidder ex poverty if it is $21,500 a year when today it should be $36,000 a year as poverty. Government is in the 1970's and both parties do this do our people will not qualify for help. Have Governments adjusted their living costs in the equation?

Amazing how the gov sends trillions of dollars to the market by way of the stimulus yet the biggest benefactor is the retail grocery chains. Now they are raising prices… shame on you Kroger, food lion, giant eagle, Safeway and others!!!
Cook home you can learn how to cook from YouTube. Health food
Eat less. Look how large Americans are.
When one ☝️ thing goes down the other goes up like oil
Y’all don’t want prices to go up? Maybe don’t ask for more stimulus checks.
It seems EA is ruling the world.
This doesnt sound good for PEOPLE. idiots
Ladies and gentlemen GET USED TO IT! We want to STOP relying on China and therefore our prices will go up on more than just meat products!
I've noticed, since the government has been assisting people during this crisis, the prices going up.
Here comes hyperinflation ….buy some precious metal people…the banks are printing trillions like crazy…that means they are stealing your buying power…wait till next couple years watched my videos will be explained there.
The upside to this is that it should decrease hoarding but it is unfortunate for those who are unemployed…
Stagflation
welp not looking forward to going to pavilions anytime soon
It’s called inflation by the fed printing money and devaluing our currency . And the liberals want 2000 per person for the rest of the year ?? This is just the beginning . Remember every action has and equal and opposite reaction . We will pay for this watch
You don’t need to eat chicken, pork, beef and eggs every day.
I cut protein down to once a week and used a plant based protein supplement and high protein plants.
I’m fine. If anything I’m healthier because I did something less convenient then the usual by preparing plant based meals. It might even be a blessing in disguise for some people and their health.
bull crap! Prices and gas are awesome here. I'm vegan and the shelves are loaded with delicious organic whole foods!
now we got are stimulus time to raise the rent bills and food , take back the money we gave them LOL ahahahah
Isn’t it great?! The food industry can screw the public and doesn’t get in any trouble. Really? Greed at a time like this
Quick, let's try another scare tactic! We must keep the public in continual fear, right?
The way everything is expensive ..
Is the way California needs to help ppl that are struggling … PERiOD
Sooner enough the only thing we will be able to buy are crappy frozen banquet meals!
How can you get the economy moving when we're getting price gouged??? It's time to re evaluate their CEO'S pay. They're eating WELL apparently.
So what do they want 1st we over buy and they tell us not to over buy bc theres plenty of food to go around so that made us stop over buying so we don’t have have to go out as much now since no one is buying and there’s a shortage they increase the price im done with America im going to Europe they have more since over there bc some parts in europe are still in lockdown
Why??
hello its called inflation you idiots .. its what happens when you inject trillions of Monopoly dollars into the economy
They lied again they kept saying they weren’t going rude the prices we can’t even afford stuff now
Hmmm dont the bible say it will cost a days wages just for a loaf of bread hmmmm… Jesus is coming people wake up.
