So now the government is telling us that there is no more inflation

[still_one]

The I-bond rate now is 2.41%. That is a drop from 6.75% rate

Hell, you can buy 3 month t-bills for 4.75%

This is a lie, and the government is in on the fix

1. Screw the bonds

My bread is way up--from 99 cents to $1.19. My Dr. Pepper is up. 99 cents to $1.39.

Inflation is here.

3. I know what reality is, but the government is now trying to

propagate the lie that their is no inflation

[LSparkle]

2. They aren't entitled to their own FACTS

Inflation is definitely here; they just think they can make it go away by talking up the "great" economy we're "enjoying."

5. I-bonds are inflation protected bonds

For the last 6 months they were running at 6.75%, now they drop to 2.21% because of a drop in inflation

Do they think people are really that stupid?

People know what they pay for things

4. Everything is up, except for flyswatters and coloring books and

other cheap Chinese crap.

Medicine, gas, food, housing, insurance are ALL UP!!!

6. The US government is about as trustworthy as the USSR was.

7. Gas is up 100% in the last two years.

Health care is up about 20% in the last two years. What were they saying about "low inflation"?
