      Here is the catch though: Do you really think Trump will lower prices? I mean for real seriously? For real now, republicans take care of rich and wealthy people. If you are rich and wealthy and don't care about anyone else I understand. However, if you are a working person that is not rich and you don't have to be poor I'm talking middle class, republicans are not going to help you.

    I've been working at a grocery store for almost 10 years (this June), and I have never seen prices so bad since ive started. And yes Baby Food and Baby Formula is absolutely insanity. A 12 pack of pop is almost $6.99 $8.99 (Depending on brand and the company).

      Yep. And they know the masses will keep paying it, too. They know that most of the public just doesn't say 'no' to themselves. So, question: Just when will people start leaving it on the self?

      Your President Joe Biden is spending hundreds of billions of dollars. Given it to other countries given away our fuel to other countries. Letting illegal immigrants in and given them $1000 gift cards. What do you expect's gonna happen?
