I have a weird idea. Much of what I see the left promoting is very luxury. A luxury can be a fast food visit, a new console, or some cool new item. It's not necessary, but it's fun. The prices of these are going up.
Necessity items are gas, electricity, food in the fridge, and internet. The prices for these are going down.
There's a weird upper middle class that wants necessities as luxuries. This is the "Farmers Market" fresh, Whole Foods, and gaming PCs for work. The price going up makes them feel better, because they think the value goes up as well.
No idea how to explain this to a lefty.
Gasoline for sure is hitting good markers right now. Hopefully we will see it "trickle down" to better prices on consumer goods because when gas increases, prices increase as well (it will never happen).
I'm more focused on electricity prices, Internet prices, and home heating fuel prices (gas, propane, ect). Where in the country are those going down?
