While April CPI inflation rose to 3.8%, inflation is much higher in many basic necessities:
1. Energy Commodity Inflation: +29.2%
2. Gasoline Inflation: +28.4%
3. Airfare Inflation: +20.7%
4. Energy Inflation: +17.9%
5. Electricity Inflation: +6.1%
6. Fruits and Vegetables Inflation: +6.1%
7. Hospital Services Inflation: +5.5%
8. Motor Vehicle Repair Inflation: +5.1%
9. Apparel Inflation: +4.2%
This has driven cumulative inflation since 2020 to +29%, meaning goods that cost $100 in 2020 now cost $129 today.
Inflation remains a major issue for Americans.
@CTopiniononly@GuntherEagleman You're the one playing a victim card. No one said poc can't do anything, except racists. That doesn't change the fact racism against minorities isn't prevalent.
@CTopiniononly@GuntherEagleman Ok, let's remove race from everything. Starting with the part of your brain that thinks 'what was needed 50 years ago' somehow fixed everything by magic. Spoiler: it didn't. The classic I don’t see race thing doesn't reflect the racial problems going on today.
@toenail@Dougie_DaGoat@dom_lucre Literally what Trump does half the time. The other time he says something ridiculous and it makes headlines for how stupid it is. I don't know what the hell makes you think he was a logical pick.
