Not sure what kind of crack is in the Diet Coke there but prices are not down where anon lives in Florida. A small fraction but still highly elevated from what they should be. Gas is well over $3 a gallon still, not under $2. Butter is $7 a pound. Eggs probably dropped a single dollar per dozen but are still at least triple what they should be. Energy costs that he promised would drop by 50% are still the same as far as our electric, water etc.. Retire parent anons are paying hundreds of dollars directly out of their social security to fund their Medicare requirements. Home insurance for a basic home is over $5k this year and that's not including property taxes. This is only part of it but basically everything is inflated still and we live in a good economic area of the country. Dropping something 20% after it went up 300% is nothing to brag about. Do any of these rich people really known what it's like to put butter and eggs back on the shelf so other things can be paid for? We're paying out the ass here waiting for the golden age.. which I"m not sure newly retired people can really benefit from. Retired people who had to work so hard the last 40 years due to factory closings they had no money left to save for the future and are relying on their basic social security. The basic things listed above are all we can hope for relief on.. and they're literally all still the same. I don't give a fuck about a trade deal with the UK. I want to know how inflated prices are going to go down to normal so we can at least live a little better after getting ripped off for decades. This is just the testimony of one anon's family but there are many waiting for better news.
