A long-haul trucker took to TikTok this week to explain fuel prices in terms every American can understand: “What are y’all gonna do next month when your gallon of milk costs $11?”

Spend a lot more money on milk.

Everything else, too.

Here’s the video, including a little NSFW (but very appropriate) language:

(snip, but you'll note that the reefer truck driver ponied up $1,052+ to fill up his truck. That's right. We're talking FOUR digits plus.)

Currently, milk is going for a little over $3 per gallon, so $11 doesn’t seem likely by next month.

That’s the good news if you’re willing to let me stretch the definition of “good” thin enough to cover inflation at 40-year highs.

More at the link, including a very apt Ronald Reagan quote and a summation as to where inflation comes from and how it can end.

But it won't -- not with the current jackwagons in charge, especially Congress. #SharterJoe is, as we all know, just a puppet.

The goal is chaos. Dictators always rise from chaos. Democrats are already to be waiting in the wings. In place of prosperity they will offer scarps of food. You will own nothing and be happy.
