Thays right, how can he be lowing food prices, when he is too busy running around the country and raising gas prices? The president cant do both!!! Gee.
I guess you dont really look at all of the components of the economy, do you? You treat this like it is a silo, it isnt. Are you still with me?
Let's just look at what has happened to the supply chain...of let's just say meat.
Covid, processing stopped, or became limited.
Shipping product, lumber for crates was halted from processing at same time, driving demand for lumber up, and further delaying shipping.
Fuel shortage due to hacks. Fuel shortage due to cold weather. Crude processing into fuel halts for hurricanes in LA.
Trucking shortages.
Pent up customer demand for meat.
Low market supply.
Perfect free market storm of SUPPLY AND DEMAND!!
Please remember, the more strain we put on the market, the higher inflation will go.
