I saw an article over at Yahoo that looked to be a straightforward examination of inflation in grocery prices. I’ll note at the outset that the yellow circles are something that I’ve added to the graphics.
What the hell? They didn’t compare prices, they surveyed folk and asked them about prices! Another ‘follow the science’ moment in American journalism I guess. Let’s get everyone overwrought about shit that just ain’t so.
WTF, if that doesn’t get them fired up, lets add a racial disparity twist to the equation and see if we can begin some type of new victimhood. ‘Spending Inequality’ my ass.
The sad part is that the nation has become so dumb’d down that most absorb this drivel without question. We’re hosed.
