Bloomberg: Inflation Stings Most If You Earn Less Than $300K. Here’s How To Live With It

Wow.

They’re really going full Great Reset with Ukraine being a justification to make you poorer and less able to afford meat.

Bloomberg:

“If your income is more than $289,000 a year, the run-up in gas prices may be alarming — but it’s unlikely to hammer your overall finances. After all, Americans at that level spend no more than 1% of their take-home pay on gas and oil, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

For those earning much less, it’s a different story. Those at the median, with income of about $50,000, spend more than 3% of it on gas and motor oil. Low-income households making between $7,000 and $19,000 spend about 9%. The latest inflation numbers show gas prices jumped 6.6% in February from a month earlier — even before President Joe Biden banned U.S. imports of Russian oil. …

When it comes to food, don’t be afraid to explore. Prices for animal-based food products will certainly increase. Ukraine and Russia supply a significant amount of corn and barley to the world market, mainly to feed livestock for human food. Meat prices have increased about 14% from February 2021 and will go up even more. Though your palate may not be used to it, tasty meat substitutes include vegetables (where prices are up a little over 4%, or lentils and beans, which are up about 9%). Plan to cut out the middle creature and consume plants directly. It’s a more efficient, healthier and cheaper way to get calories. …”

Remember, if you are finding it harder to afford literally everything (gas, groceries, rent, etc.) because of our policies, you’re sticking it to Putin.

Note: I haven’t seen any Putin stickers, but these are everywhere now.

    • Not one article explaining that USZOG is devaluing our money to pay for all the debt accumulated by their globalist anti-WHITE policies.

      All our earnings and savings are evaporating through this surreptitious tax.

  1. The article just illustrates how far from reality the obsolete media is. This applies to all other subjects, but more so.

  2. linkThe post-revolution Reign of Terror in France makes more sense every day.

    My version from the last several years goes like this: I know understand better why, after the French Revolution, they decided to bring out the guillotine.

    • >I know understand

      I now understand

      OT

      Will civil society in China ultimately follow a trajectory similar to the West?

      Marriage on the rocks in China as women rethink their options and Covid-19 limits take toll

      For example, among about the 220 million Gen Z population – roughly those born between 1995 and 2010 – there are 18.27 million more men than women, according to the youth league. … The one-child policy was eased to two children in 2015 and three last year.

      Generally, both the male fraction of births as well as mortality among male infants are both higher than for females — across a country with a population as large as China, this could account for the dearth of males (?) — selective abortion (after sex determination via .e.g ultrasound) may be another explanation; in turn, the one child policy and the desire of rural couples (essentially Chinese peasants) to have a male child may be partly to blame for that practice.

      • “Will civil society in China ultimately follow a trajectory similar to the West?”

        If they absorb enough of the capitalist “culture” of selfish individualism. Mao saw the necessity for a proletarian cultural revolution, that purged China of its capitalist disease and made possible all the good growth that followed. He understood that otherwise China would be socialist in name only and continue wallowing in greed and corruption, drug addiction, and fornication, until it falls back under the control of Western imperialism.

        Fortunately China still has a very large truly rural agrarian population. I think now the large urban population needs to re-introduced to the land and hard rural labor (see I spelled it correctly) as it was in 1965-67, and then the urban women will find their place again.

      • Idiot Chinese….killing off the sex that births future generations and leaving 18 million frustrated males. Pure genius.

  3. The German Minister of Agriculture, who is vegan and Grune (Green) said “Weniger Fleisch essen, wäre ein Beitrag gegen Putin” (“Eating less meat would be a contribution against Putin”). Russia, watch out! Germany is being fully re-militarised, becoming ready to make sacrifices for war, and the Green party is turning out to be the most martial, warmongering and anti-Russian of all.

    • “Green party is turning out to be the most martial, warmongering and anti-Russian of all.”

      Libtatds are always the biggest hypocrites.
      That’s the reason they are so despicable.

    • He probably wants to bring in millions of Africans to serve as cannon fodder as well.

      • ” in millions of Africans to serve as cannon fodder”

        You’ve got that wrong.

        The WHITES serve as cannon fodder, while the Africans reproduce and mix while soaking up welfare.

  4. The only redeeming characteristic of the article is it did not recommend an insect eating diet to save money.

  5. Gas prices have not affected me since I have a 1 mile commute to work and my wife works from home. I am thinking of those who have long 25-35 minutes commute to work every day. It must be rough.

  6. Nobody ever talks about what happens when people finally get tired of these people in a serious fashion, because I would not have the guts to say it.

  7. Our overlords have nothing but absolute contempt and hatred for us. We owe no more loyalty to them than they have for us.

  8. But just remember! Cut out all those big boy and big girl sugary drinks…this will save you money for gas and allow you to avoid unneeded calories to help you to serve Big Brother even better. He loves hungry half-starved looking workers.

    Special Bulletin: Victory Gas will be going up another $1 this week. Sacrifice for the cause.

    May 31, 2012 — New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has proposed a ban on large sugary drinks in an effort to curb obesity. The plan would make it illegal for food service establishments such as restaurants, street vendors, sports venues and movie theaters to serve sugary drinks larger than 16 ounces.

    The ban would apply to both bottled soda and fountain drinks containing more than 25 calories per eight ounces. It would not include alcohol, fruit juices, diet soda or any beverage that is at least half milk. Grocery stores and convenience stores would be exempt.

    The sugary drinks portion cap rule, also known as the soda ban, was a proposed limit on soft drink size in New York City intended to prohibit the sale of many sweetened drinks more than 16 fluid ounces (0.47 liters) in volume to have taken effect on March 12, 2013. On June 26, 2014, the New York Court of Appeals, the state’s highest court, ruled that the New York City Board of Health, in adopting the regulation, exceeded the scale of its regulatory authority. The repealed regulation was codified in section 81.53 of the New York City Health Code (title 24 of the Rules of the City of New York).

    • This is the same kind of mentality behind forced jabs. All you have to do is make the “crisis” threating enough and the NPC’s will jump on board. No discussion or dissent allowed.

  9. The geniuses in charge with their idiotic economic policies especially their sanctions against Russia are accelerating the process already underway of de-dollarisation of the world economy. It’s difficult to enumerate all the consequences of the U.S. Dollar’s fall from grace as the world’s reserve currency but the results will be devastating to dollar holders around the world. Inflation, already much higher than the Government’s laughable %7.9 per annum “official” rate will skyrocket higher.

    Third World countries that import food, places like Egypt that have Government subsidised bakeries that ensure people can get two cheap meals a day will have to shut down or raise prices. This will tip over current regimes replacing them with periods of anarchy and despotism. Look for even more wogs to try to escape to the increasingly poorer western nations of Europe and the U.S./Canada with their current useless, horrible, thoroughly corrupt governments.

    The hedge fund types don’t care except that they will buy assets at distressed prices as companies and individuals go bankrupt. Blackstone is already one of the largest residential properties owners in the U.S. pricing out individual homeowners and raising rents nationwide. The greedy bastards want to own it all and they will with the help of the U.S. Government and the syphilitic politicians they purchase like cheap whores.

    Any of these financial companies that are in danger of going bankrupt because of bad investments are always assured of a U.S. Government bailout. They simply threaten the politicians to crash the U.S. financial system if they aren’t bailed out. For the rest of the population it’s time for all that great “Free Market” capitalism the Republicans are always talking about to land on them. Socialism for the wealthy capitalists, the vaunted “Free Market” crony capitalism for everyone else, it’s the American way.

    • ” Blackrock is already one of the largest residential properties owners in the U.S. pricing out individual homeowners and raising rents nationwide.”

      If you had a time machine, you could go back through history and see that they did this everywhere, Rome, Spain, Germany, Poland, Russia, etc.

      Always the same methods.
