Inflation, Rising Prices & Recession: Economic Discussion

One of our smaller ones here in town is increasing 15% (they sent out a letter), the larger power company is raising theirs 30%.
 
So basically many who can't afford to live as is, which is bad, will now REALLY not be able to afford to live which is really bad.
 
I had the Wendy's $5 meal yesterday, your choice of 5 different sandwiches, 4-piece nuggets, small fry and small drink. But talk about shrinkflation on the food sizes.

Yeah the sizes were smaller for sure.
 
Got to love when ultra rich, who probably make more in interest alone than you or I earn in a year working full time, say things are fine and dandy. ALso, great when news makes it seem like "inflation eased more than expected in June, to 3%"... Doesn't matter as inflation is inflation and still not great.
