I got news for you...Swaye said:He saved them from themselves. Imagine had they passed 4T in BBB. Inflation would be over 10 percent. They really owe that white guy they hate.
They're still touting 8.5%, right? I have not purchased one item in the past month from a grocery store that's not up at least 15%. Would love for @EconomistDawg to tell me where this 8.5% number is coming from. -
