Okay so if it isn't inflation then what is it?
>>524241686jews
>>524241686they lied about the severity of inflation.
>>524241686inflation>but...its under-reported
>>524241686They all just raised their prices because they know people are retarded and will still buy it.
>>524241759thats not the whole story though because some things rose more than others. certain industries decided to treat inflation like they would tariffs, instead raising their prices with inflation they raised in excess of inflation. And, inflation was actually much higher than reported. tldr; multi-track kikery
>>524241686>cost of beef>cost of wheat>cost of labor>inflation>living in a Democrat-run city>ordering on Door Dash
i hardly ever see a packed taco bell/cantina nowadays. and the packs are way cheaper than buying a la carte
Nigga king size snickers is $3.29 now. These shit used to be $0.99. Fuck this shit
>>524241926>Nigga king
>>524241686It's called greedflation and is 100% the fault of shareholders.
Imagine putting your dick in that
>>524241686taco-bell is publicly traded and has legal obligation to generate as much profit as possible for its shareholders.provided two strategies of selling 1 burrito per year for $100,000; or 999,999 burritos per year for $1, they are required to go for the whale sale.the reality is that the high price results in the most profit, even with less sales.
The correct term is "price gouging".
>>524242042That's illegal in the United States, pitiful leaf. Economics much?
>>524241848I live in rural missouri If I walked to tacobell right now and got a 7 layer burrito it'd cost $4.59 plus tax and tip
>>524241686because people pay for it
>>524242128>That's illegal in the United States,You mean the united goy states of Israel?Goypanies are allowed to price gouge goy chattel
All fast food comes from Sysco and the like. This is why all fast food turned to shit, from not being half bad sometimes. Then it's just another example of corporatism instead of capitalism.

goyslop, is worst slop!!!its comes de anus, worse dan it goes down de troat!>how can anyone tolerate this fake garbage (((food)))?
Never ending demand of the goyish maw
>>524241686Beef priceshave been deliberately inflated as part of the agenda 2021 climate goals.You will eat the bugsYou will live in the podYou will own nothingYou will be happy.
>>524241686inflation isn't evenly distributed, you retard, plus the calculation is probably wrong.
shareholders mean that companies are legally required to water the soup and raise the prices.
>>524242017Thats not how this works at all.
>>524242436>probablynice source tard
>>524241686>>524241745>>524241759It's the jews, but also inflation is intentionally calculated wrong so the number comes back lower. they include things that go down in price like flatscreen tvs in the calculation instead of it being like education, food, gas and housing. They do the same shit with unemployment, intentionally counting it wrong
>>524242436During covid meat prices rose far faster than any other commodity.
>>524241824this is really it>Trump goes "tariffs">suddenly everything almost doubles in price>"tariffs" go away>nothing gets cheaper
>>524242130Where I live, you can get a $5 box combo that includes a 5 layer, a taco, and cinnamon twists. Or just a 5 layer by itself for $5.
>>524242017You better not be fucking trolling me, cunt.
>>524242017>999,999 burritos per year for $1With what workers? Imagine sitting in line for 2 hours while the person in front of you orders 100 tacos.
>>524242614the stock market and its consequences have been a disasterliterally everything about shit like planned obsolescence and H1B are a direct result of endless cost cutting and profit margin inflation to increase stock values
>>524241686Late stage capitalism but you chuds arent ready for that
>>524241686Okay, listen: the who PPP loan thing during COVID was intended to kill thousands of local mom-and-pop businesses.Look around. Those stores are now all gone.It was a mass market-consolidation. During this same time, the big Coke/Pepsi/etc. mega-brands all started price-gouging, because they had corners on the market.That's also when the big labor squeeze began. Restaurants have far fewer staff now, less of the amenities operating compared to before, etc.COVID was, among other things, a cash grab for those in the club.
>>524241686people still don't get what's happening?
>>524241726Fpbp as always.
>>524241686>Okay so if it isn't inflation then what is it?Jews.
>>524241686CORPORATE GREED >Taco Bell is a major profit driver for parent company Yum! Brands, hitting a milestone of over $1 billion in core operating profit in 2024, with company-owned margins around 24%. Taco Bell expects average U.S. company store profitability to rise from $550,000 in 2024 to $800,000 in 2030. Taco Bell also wants 100 percent of transactions to be enabled by digital platforms and streamline every touchpoint through innovations like Byte by Yum!, the company’s new tech suite filled with several AI-driven tools. (ie automate all cashier staff, and most counter staff).

Every year the sales tax goes a little bit higher. Even if they don’t raise the price of anything significantly, the tax you pay afterwards always goes up. So a 1.90 jug of water will be 3 dollars and 30 cents afterwards. You pay almost double for low priced items now
>>524242709THIS. How do people live in 2025 and not understand basic modern economics and corporate strategy. None of this is any secret. Consumers are irrelevant. The one and only factor determining corporate action is the maximization of earnings per share for (publically traded entities) and profit maximization across the board. Arguing this is incorrect is like saying water isn’t wet.
>>524242521Unemployment doesn't include contractors, who make up the majority of working people now
>>524241686Inflation is compounding not linear.
>>524241958greedflation would be a problem of share holders if it wasn't happening in every company. As it is, it's a problem of the system.
>>524241686No, fast food prices are not the same across every U.S. state; they vary significantly due to factors like local operating costs, rent, taxes, competition, and consumer willingness to pay, with higher prices often seen in areas with higher minimum wages (like California) or higher costs of living, though some argue for regional price tiers. While some chains try for consistency, local market conditions, including labor expenses and the high cost of living, drive price differences, meaning you'll pay more in expensive states like Hawaii or California and less in more affordable states like Idaho or Nebraska.
>>524241686It weights less too.
Who the fuck is buying Taco Bell in 2025? It was barely passable as food in 2005 and that's because their entire value proposition was that you could feed a family of five with a $20 bill.
>>524244320thanks, chatGPTisn't the fact that it has an unmistakable "voice" crazy
>>524244248>maximization of earnings per share for (publically traded entities) and profit maximization across the board.Is this why publicly traded companies keep doing incredibly gay and retarded shit that causes white conservatives to stop buying their products?
>>524244364you shut up nigger, quesadilla sauce was given to us by god himselfthe other parts of it barely qualify as "food" and if you get chicken ones from one of the places that's combined with a long john silver's the chicken tastes like chickenfish, but stillSAUCE
this may have saved lives. that shit is bad for you if eaten all the time. your HDL cholesterol, Triglycerides, Calcium score will all go up
>>524244369i was already gonna make the point that minimum wage in washington is why prices are so high here but i thought id have GOOGLE ai expand on that. not every fucking uses chatpgt you dumb nigger.
>>524241686This
>>524241686>Okay so if it isn't inflation then what is it?Same thing that happened with Subway. The 89c beefy 5 layer was a promotion in 09 if I'm remembering correctly where they were selling 5layers like 30% below cost as a loss leader to get people in to buy baja blast and other high margin shit. It worked but they could never maintain those prices forever. In the same way Subway milked the $5 footlong as long as they could knowing that their customer base would evaporate the second they pulled prices back up to sustainable levels, and guess what happened when they finally did?
>>524241686if you honestly don't know "what" it is you need to fucking kill yourself.
>>524244419and how often do they do tranny cans a second time>>524244442>ahem it was GOOGLE LLM not chatGPT LLM, you lose faggotbrb off to anhero
>>524241726thread/
I’m the gayest guy in this thread
>>524244452They changed the definition. What's weird about this is when they did it (while inflating the M1) and never provided normalized numbers. That graph overstates the effect, but specifically does so at a point when it works in their favor. Peak judiasm.
>>524241686Trump's tariffs
>>524241686>Okay so if it isn't inflation then what is it?a combination of>a) the state lying out of its ass with regards to the height of inflation because they know they'd be killed if they said the truthand>b) the stock marketonce your company is publicly traded, simply running on a net plus is no longer good enough. that net plus needs to be as maximized as possible, no matter the sacrifices.
>>524241686Inflation was running at 10%+ a year between 2008-2019 while they claimed inflation was actually 0-2%. The mass printing of money from COVID just made the normies realise they're a frog in a pan of water.
>>524242521This. The "commodity basket" used to calculate highly cooked inflation stats contains an overproportionate volume of products that you usually buy once every few years, such as a washing machine and computers, taking into account technological improvements (so the computer we use today has x flops, how much did that computer cost a year ago). What this means is that particularly objects like cars and computers where the technological standards keep improving while pricing remains stable create a completely concocted value, since nobody buys several computers a year, but you do go out to eat burritos several times, or buy dozens of yoghurts at supermarkets etc.So in short, the commodity basket does neither reflect spending habits of consumers, nor priorities of consumers, nor does it take into account that consumers do not broadly ask for the technological innovations being offered, they just want to get by with what they have for as long as they can (washing machine, car, computer, phone) before having to buy a new one.Realistically, inflation has been at over 12% p.a. the past 5 years. You can thank the idiots that enjoyed the comfy lockdowns over muh coofles.
>>524244266they call up people on phones so you need to answer you phone and ask you if you're out of work and you've been looking for work in the past x number of days.So if you aren't looking for work, or don't answer your phone you don't get counted
Sometimes fast food franchises will offer trash items cheap to the point of not even being profitable on their own just to attract people to the store so they buy other things that DO make moneyLater on this offer may be rescinded, the item priced normally again and then when someone compares the two cists between these two times they assume they are comparing two normal prices
>>524241686at least it's the same sizehere in Mexico the price keeps getting higher and higher and the size smaller and smaller
>>524244756In the UK and other European countries if you have been out of work for more than 6 months you're no longer classed as unemployed, they simply remove you from the reel. Same goes for recent graduates. The US almost certainly has something similar.
I’m ok with it. I was at the perfect age to experience cheap slop with friends, I remember everyone throwing in a single dollar to get a hot n ready and be fed and happy. $3 to get full at McDonald’s, when you could still steal soda. I’m over fast food now and it’s too expensive to be worth it anyway, worked out perfectly.
>>524241848All those costs are calculated within inflation, this is just price gouging
>>524241745laughable that they just claim 2% every year no matter how bad it is. >1 to 3? 2%
>>524244918it's that and the fact you have to answer a phone call
>>524245356cause 2% is good number for ideal economy
>>524245356They've been claiming far more than 2% every year for the past 5 years.That should scare the fuck out of everyone. Because whenever they said 1.4% or 1.9%, it was actually over 5%. Now they are claiming 5%, that means it's actually around 12.5% - 15% minimum
People just continued eating these as the price doubled 3 times? I stopped eating this shit when the $1 menu became $1.25.
>>524244318A small number (2000 or so) of shareholders is basically the entire system at this point and they drink kid blood to stay alive longer They only make you deal with the government as a smoke screen
>>524241686Jewery.
>>524241745We didn't, goyim.Bag of flour going up $10 and giant TV screen going down $10 mean total inflation average at zero.Please re-read your Holocaust 101, chapter 3, for more golem-compatible math.
>>524241686EBT (formerly)
>>524241726>jewsShut it down.
>>524241686the quality of the product has increased by 400%
>>524245515lol. according to who? what do they say about the ideal demographics of said economy?
YOU ARE ALL DUMBFUCKS.PRICES DO NOT RISE BECAUSE OF INFLATION. INFLATION **IS** THE INCREASE IN PRICES.
>>524245736> INFLATION **IS** THE INCREASE IN PRICES.Yes, dumdum.OP's pic is people pointing out the *official* value given for inflation by gov&journo is blatantly false.
>>524241686as long as goycattle doesn't stop stuffing their fat faces with that slop, the prices will increase. supply and demand
>>524241745Go check out how many merchant ships got scrapped due to the Corona shut downs and the economic damage it cause down the supply line.
>>524241686the published "inflation" rates are bogus. cooked books. they try to make the numbers look smaller so they look like they're doing a good job.just like unemployment
>>524241686Or ORRRRIt could be inflation and the government is just lying about inflation numbers : )reminder Obama literally made it so food cost couldn't be counted in inflation projections.
>>524241686demand for a lot of things has severely outpaced supply.world population has increased by 2 billion in that time, and poverty has decreased significantly in the 2nd and 3rd worlds, which means a lot more consumers.
>>524245678
>>524245726>lol. according to who?the jews in charge of the central bank>what do they say about the ideal demographics of said economy?more jeets the better. unlimited jeets.
The ad is from the 90s. All you niggers are an embarrassment.
>>524241686It won't make the price down. Just don't buy it.
>>524241745Probably this
>>524242130>Thr food price is enormous >Its a fast food joint>You order at the counter or over a touchscreen>You carry food yourself >You eat at tables that look like canteen>Still leave the TIP!Boy, the (((they))) really worked their magic on the mutts. Soon you will be wrapping your taco yourself for 10$ and still leaving the tip at self-checkout.
