NEWS FLASH
This is not exactly a news flash where we ecpect to see good news but more like a news bomb
we the people are beinging targeted. where else can they get their profits from.
I often comment on the economy as the statitision ofther paint a rosy picture ye we live in a world of g;ppm an doom this recent inflation plague has not leveled out as the percntage increasee in the cost or items at 10 % plus is more than is reasonable as it reache abou the stabdar level of income where there is no control .
1% flutuation in the cost of living up an down can be considdered exceptable where id coed out fpr control creats hard ship
we can only hope for stardardation priece go fo so weexpect wager to go up that isonly catering
I am sure thay many have notin the lates manugfactures trick a for those eho have no we are gettin douped with smaler packaging at the same price do not shop ny price shop by content.
here are just a few items wher we are being cheated
TOOTH PASTE
90 % tooth paste 10 % air pumped in the lower portion of the tube the tuber does nor weight the same som manudactire use smaller tubers at the same prove as before
BREAKFAST CERIAL
THe front of the bis pacaging is the same size as before However the box is somewhat narrower the prive has no change but the vontedt has bee reduced let me say 10 %
CHOCLATE BAR
The face size of the face of bar is the same as before but the choclate is 10 % thinner for again as the same price after the suger tax whic efectively increase evet thin in the store.
BARGAINS
We are buying too much from Canada thinkin we are gettin bargains unfortunately tere are no bargains to day
Here is the BIG ONE the sent price up
INSURANCE
Across the boar d Insurance went up by 10 %.
You have noticed in real cost increases are up by 10 % simply because that number is easy to calculate. Insurance is part and parcel with shipping costs up by 10 % for fuel and wages
Insurance had to go up to cove the 10 % increase in claimes for damages. ON EVERY THING except parking, that went up by 20 %.
Who do you think gets the worst of it with out doubt, the contracy day working man an his family
What realy scares me is the USA government tarrifs and too much money is spent on wars and the whole sale killing people .
