    it's easy to spend $100 a week for one person these days.

    I'd hate to see a family bill.
    Or even a baby bill.

    #### I get 100 worth of nothing when I go to the store. I remember I could eat pretty decent for that. Now it is 40 bucks to go out and eat fast food for two people. And it is about the same from grocery store if you want anything decent.

    I spent $20 on gas station tacos and a drink yesterday. Crazy.

    I kind on hope we run out of fuel, I could sure use a break. I’ve been running ragged all year.

    It's not a single factor. It's russia/Ukraine, it's China still trying for zero covid, it's the Ethiopian war, it's Iran and Saudi Arabia playing games with each other, it's India and Pakistan (both together and internally), it's the tariffs from 2018, it's Brexit, it's Liz Truss, it's the "unusually dry ground" in the Midwest despite overall precipitation being "normal", its the drastic uptick of tornadoes, it's food producers and grocery stores increasing their profit margins, it's meat Packers not being able to find workers, it's the farm bailouts, it's the consolidation of the market place, its the (over) leveraged buy outs, the list goes on.
