Inflation slowing, but not as much as expected.
April’s consumer price index, a key measure of inflation, rose 0.3% month over month and 8.3% year over year. Economists expect the CPI to rise 0.2% from the month prior and 8.1% year over year, according to the Dow Jones consensus estimate. That compares with March’s 8.5% year-over-year pace.
Core CPI, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, saw an even bigger month-over-month jump of 0.6%. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones were expecting a 0.4% rise.

Here's a fun thought. We've had periods of inflation in the past, but we've never had a period of inflation where wage stagnation has been so pronounced, for so long, with so much national debt, with major supply chain issues, and staffing shortages everywhere.
Good times, 7 more years!

Just saw a prediction on MSM of $6 gas by August.
No road trips for poor people this summer.

The US military is flying in baby formula from europe.

I missed something.... WHY is there a baby formula shortage in the United States of America? This is embarrassing.

Baby formula is heavily regulated, tightly concentrated, and a plant that makes like 20% of the US supply had issues and closed a few months ago.
Because of regulations, we can't just import it from anywhere, etc.

Not a good look. Maybe the UN needs to step in with humanitarian aid for us.

Rookie move.
Listen to Curly. Genuinely one of the best things ever written. Such a great statement about the human condition.
