The Bureau of Labor Statistics just released new data that says the cost of living is going up as the main street economy crashes and the dollar loses its purchasing power. This also comes as more and more Americans continue to struggle to get by in the aftermath of the government’s reaction to the scamdemic.
The new numbers released are comparing the consumer price index, which is essentially the price of common things we pay for all averaged together, of 2019 to that of 2020. The number has gone up.
The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.4 percent in August on a seasonally adjusted basis after rising 0.6 percent in July, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Over the last 12 months, the all items index increased 1.3 percent before seasonal adjustment. –BLS.gov
Since the Federal Reserve, the central banks, is continuing to bail out corporations and create money out of thin air, inflation and costs for basic necessities will continue to rise. Some areas of the economy are being hit harder than others too. The cost of food has jumped in the Bay Area of California, propelled by meat, poultry, and fish prices that have skyrocketed, joining soaring electricity costs, according to a report by Mercury News. Meat, fish, and poultry prices have soared a whopping 17.4 percent over the past 12 months ending in August in the Bay Area. This means that these prices are at a super-heated pace that’s 11 times greater than the region’s cost of living during the same one-year period.
Because the cost of living is going up as the economy is struggling for everyday folks, it’s important to make a plan. Preparedness should include financial emergencies. Even though the dollar is crashing, having a little extra money on hand to be able to pay 3-6 months’ worth of bills will help you get through tough times. All it would take to eliminate the middle class is one more lockdown.

Trump is not for law and order at all. Trump is for looting and white collar crime. If I happened to be guilty of white-collar crime, I would support Trump in 2020, however, I am not a white collar criminal or a street criminal. I truly oppose corruption and crime so I cannot support Trump or Biden/Harris.
If Trump was in favor of law and order he would in the very least be demanding that the 194 corporations that are financing BLM stop doing so, which they are doing for the purpose of insurance fraud, and to destabilize society and create chaos, which is every bit as evil and as criminal as the poeople actually committing the crimes, because if they truly wanted the police to stop killing blacks, they would have lobbied for it and it would have been carved in stone as law.
If you think that Trump is in favor of law and order, you are dead wrong and the facts prove it.

“Cost of Living Continues to Rise RAPIDLY As Americans Struggle to Get By”
Who could have foreseen $5-$10 trillion of funny money being pumped into the economy causing cost of living to rise rapidly?
answer: anyone with a brain, which eliminates 99.9% of all politicians and government economist!
Trump did in fact say that he will contest election results if he loses the election and will not accept that he lost the election, and the DNC also said that they will contest the election results and not accept that Biden lost.
Let them brawl it out.
Trump is definitely a corrupt tyrant, which he has proven by the lockdown and bailouts for the same psychopaths that demand bailouts every decade, and millions of small businesses were destroyed by Trump. Trump cannot pass the buck. If DeBlasio or any other psychopathic DNC politician is guilty of violating people’s constitutional rights, Trump had and has the authority to prevent them from doing that, which he has chosen not to exercise by design, to remove blame for his failure to reign in corruption which was the cause of the plandemic scamdemic.
Even though Trump is a corrupt tyrant, replacing a corrupt tyrant with another corrupt tyrant is not a victory for anyone that is not corrupt.
The 2000 election dragged on for weeks, and everyone got through it, there were not excessively high numbers of mail in ballots though.
Let the RNC and DNC duke it out in the streets if they want to, especially the politicians.
I despise both parties, since both parties are guilty of treason.
Have you not noticed that Trump is always attempting to get everyone to focus on injustices committed against Trump, while he has committed more injustices on America than any president in my lifetime other than George W. Bush with the 9/11 staged attacks and the wars and loss of liberties that followed?!
Never had a lockdown, and nationwide shut down of the entire economy with people held hostage in their homes over scientific fraud by any other president!
How in the hell can people defend the evil psychopath for that?! What is in the hell is the matter with them?!
Why in the hell did people sign up to act as a propagandist for that psychopath?!
I find it impossible to believe that they were not hired by Trump, after he subjected this country to all of that.
