It’s not the economy. The U.S. has one of the highesr production rates in the world, and one of the highest GDPs in the world.
The money is absolutely there in the economy to make ends meet for us all, the economy is more than healthy enough for it. But that wealth doesn’t go to us, it goes to the 1%.
It’s the distribution of wealth/ownership that’s the problem.
Maybe not entirely the economy, but food costs have gone way up in the past few years due to inflation and it is making a big strain on a lot of people. I agree that distribution of wealth is a huge problem, but you can’t disregard the economy as well. High production rates and GDP don’t translate into affordable groceries.
Exactly. The money from that “inflation” isn’t going towards the production of that food, it is going into the pockets of the rich. The wealth is there, its just going to the wrong place.

It’s not inflation. It’s coordinated price increases. See the chicken article that was just published.
