Tell me guys, how many high-end establishments do you go where the prime rib is 180.00, and you stand in line for a cashier to pay the bill?
I don't understand why DUmmies lie so much.

This customer really got under my skin today.
I work in a food emporium as a cashier. Every other transaction was $400 and more.
And because it's the day before the day before Christmas, it was a circus with one customer after another. I had four customers waiting while I was checking out another.
The customer who really bothered me was making chitchat, but it really wasn't. She commented that she was paying $50 more this year because of "Biden". I said nothing. I reviewed her order. Over $400. A prime rib roast at $186. And she's crying poverty and it's Joe Biden's fault. You bet I wanted to say something. I tried the "sour grapes" mentality where I told myself I need this job and it wouldn't make a difference.
This is in a geographic location with lots of affluence and our store is where they go. She isn't the only one who believes this bullshit.
I couldn't start to pay for her order and she's telling me how bad our economy is via groceries.
DUmmies are whistling past the graveyard. The economy is a damned wreck, and under their control, regular groceries have skyrocketed.
Another thing to lie about... the DUmmies comlain about it themselves all the time. geez

Old saying: One must eat to live, not live to eat.
I suspect, TBH, that food suppliers jacked up prices like everyone else did, "because they could" ... and blame it on someone else.
Sound familiar? It's the GOP theme song.
standard DUmpass response: it's not inflation, it's just rich people price gouging everyone.
