These people complain about inflation when the real problem is low/stagnant real wages.
Wage growth is totally dogshit but that's been true for 30 years. This inflation stuff really is fucking crazy. You can barely walk out of a grocery store for less than $60. Everything has gone up damn near 50% in the last two years between prices going up and pirti9ns of literally everything going down.
Enshitificiation really is in full swing.
Yea, i meant, low real wages. If inflation is 10% and wages increase 20% thats still good. but in this case there is no counter to inflation in form of increase in wages.
