Watch: What Inflation Really Looks Like.

by
Steve MacDonald

Inflation has been brutal on the price of everything. It’s the not-so-hidden tax on Americans and usually the result of meddling from high up the political food chain. If you need a visual of the pain, here’s a video of a graph that shows inflation in real terms.

It compares these items to the price of things from January 2020 and plots the prices up to June of 2022.

 

And then there’s this. You’ve likely heard about the unreported or underreported terrorist attacks on the US food supply and food supply chain (terrorist is my word). The number of incidents is well past the coincidence stage. Think American put together a list, not sure if it is their leg work but here’s a link. And here is their list as shared on GP.

I’m sorry, just a coincidence, right?

Gateway Pundit also included an interactive map of the destruction on which I found two incidents in New Hampshire.

East Conway Beef and Pork April 2022 -linked above (no. 54). The shop and two cows were destroyed.

The Second was a farmstand in Derry, NH,

DERRY, NH – Derry firefighters battled a fire in a fruit/farm stand on Maple Street, February 23rd. Companies had fire showing from the center of the building and a partial collapse in the rear. A MAYDAY was called and command struck a second-alarm. After the MAYDAY was quickly cleared, command canceled the second-alarm and companies went defensive for the remainder of the fire.

That one is on the map but not on the list. And whether you see a conspiracy or not, the inflation is real. The shortages and supply chain issues are real. And it is punishing Americans who, it appears, are ready to punish Democrats in November.

  1. I hope so.
  2. I’d be surprised if Republicans didn’t squander it.
  3. We can’t afford to let them squander it.

Vote and bring people with you to vote. The ugly only gets worse with Democrats in control. Just ask Baltimore, Chicago, Minneapolis, LA, San Francisco, LA, and Atlanta. And even Washinton DC.

Democrats destroy everything they touch.
