One thought on “Americans’ refusal to keep paying higher prices may be final blow to US inflation spike

  1. Inflation is clearly based on greed, there is no need to keep raising prices when paychecks aren’t rising. We’re paying more and getting less. The cost to buy a new car is ridiculous, no excuse for monthly payments 800 to 1500 dollars for a vehicle that depreciates as soon as it’s driven off the lot. Greed. Interest rates way too high on any major purchase, house, car etc. Rates are ultimately set based on greed. Sadly a collapse has to happen because nothing keeps getting larger and taller forever. There has to be a time when there’s enough of the more, more, more syndrome. Making a profit is fine but price adjustments upward instead of downward, is making for a very dark future. It’s been said before, “what goes up must come down”. It is really time to wake up and stop the greed and lying, knowing those who set these rates to benefit themselves and not the American people.
