Why are social media platforms filled with videos of Americans complaining about grocery prices right now? Needless to say, those videos must be striking a chord, because some of them are receiving millions of views. Government bureaucrats are telling us that the cost of food is only going up a few percentage points per year, but we can all see that is a load of nonsense. A trip to the grocery store has become an enormous expense, and this is especially true if you have kids to feed. As I wrote about earlier this month, one survey found that in 25 percent of U.S. households at least one person is skipping meals so that there will be enough money to pay the bills. Sadly, we are being warned that the cost of groceries will go even higher in the months ahead.
Several years ago, I kept warning my readers over and over again that soon the cost of groceries would become very painful.
Without a doubt, that time has arrived.
According to a recent AP poll, the cost of groceries is a “source of stress” for 86 percent of U.S. adults…
Does your run to the supermarket cause a spike in your blood pressure? You’re in good company.
The overwhelming majority of Americans – 86% – say the cost of groceries is at least a minor source of stress. The number includes 53% who say it’s a major source of anxiety in their lives right now. That’s according to a new Associated Press/NORC poll.
Those are very alarming numbers.
But this is the world that we live in now.
Thanks to all you obiden voters and supporters
