Why do I have to explain to old people how inflation works?

“Why does it cost so much?”

Because bread is no longer 3 cents, Mabel. Get over it.

"Inflation has many causes, but they mainly break down into two camps: demand-pull and cost-push. Demand-pull happens when an increase in the demand for goods and services leads producers to raise prices to maximize profits. Cost-push occurs when producers raise prices because their costs have gone up. " That from Smart Asset.

If you ask me inflation is just price gouging so corporations can keep giving their CEO's their huge, undeserved compensation packages. But what do I know. I'm just a weird old man who yells at kids on his imaginary lawn.
@badminton it’s not the cashiers fault bro

@666Maggotz I don't blame the cashiers. Unless they are running their own racket!
