So meat up 12% YTD. Gas 42%. But inflation is 5.4%? I guess everyone is vegan and drives electric cars. But then again if gas goes up doesn’t that mean energy going up? Lol. How long before you are paying just like for gas to charge up your tesla? Lies & deception 24/7.

CBC.com reported:
The inflation rate rose to a 13-year high in September as rising costs for food and shelter pushed the rate up to 5.4 per cent.
Higher prices for food and shelter made up half of the increase in the overall rate, the U.S. Bureau of Labour Statistics said in a release. But the biggest individual category increase was energy, the cost of which has risen by almost 25 per cent in the past year.
Economists were expecting the number to come in at around 5.3 per cent, which would have been the highest rate since 2013. But the figure ended up being even higher.
