Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have tried to claim inflation was down and technically that’s true, but what the figures show is that the rate of increase is down. That’s good and better than the alternative but it doesn’t actually fix the underlying problem of rising costs which are felt by nearly everyone when they go to the grocery store. Unfortunately for Kamala Harris the inflation problem persists in the minds of many voters.
The pandemic-related run-up in prices has made American life costlier and loomed large over the presidential election. Over the past four years, grocery prices have risen by 22 percent, while utilities and new homes have gone up 28 percent. Although wages have also risen and inflation has come down dramatically, many families are still struggling to catch up.
“This is the first presidential election in 50 years or so where the driving issue is what things actually cost at the grocery store,” said Mark Campbell, a Republican strategist. “James Carville famously said: ‘It’s the economy, stupid.’ But that’s not really the case. It’s how much things cost.”…
While strong economies historically have favored incumbent political parties, a wave of populism — driven in part by discontent over surging prices — has punished incumbents in a number of nations, including Britain, South Africa and India.
In the United States, the downbeat perception of the economy has defined this election cycle: A majority of voters say the economy is a top concern, with 52 percent saying it is an “extremely important” factor in how they will vote — the highest level since the throes of the Great Recession, Gallup polls show.
Democrats knew this was a problem and came up with an alternative boogeyman they could present to the public other than the current administration. Instead of accepting that people were hurt by inflation, the alternative was to blame corporations for what became known as greedflation. The idea was popular enough that the word wound up being added to the dictionary this year.
Earlier this year, dictionary.com added the word “greedflation” to its list of actual words, which it defines as, “a rise in prices, rents, or the like, that is not due to market pressure or any other factor organic to the economy, but is caused by corporate executives or boards of directors, property owners, etc., solely to increase profits that are already healthy or excessive.”
A nonprofit called Groundwork Collaborative, with the mission of driving “policy change with credibility, expertise, and impact,” claimed credit for helping push “greedflation” into the common political parlance. They might be right. The group authored a widely cited study that purports to show how outsized corporate profits have caused rising prices. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
