    it’s funny because the higher prices have made me reject modern society, and I buy NOTHING as a result… literally nothing. havent bought a thing that wasn’t food in about 3ish years now. sorry, I bought a mouse. some unknown brand because all the ‘top brands’ are horrible quality and break way faster then some $15 cheap AliExpress junk I bought.

    I refuse to participate and will sit on my money. don’t care. let it burn

      Which is why Uber capitalist societies need inflation. If people remove wealth from the cycle, they get punished with inflation.

      A lot of people don’t understand that inflation isnt some insurmountable natural force we fight, it’s something that is intentionally done by the people literally controlling our economy.

      That’s not a conspiracy, that’s what the Federal Reserve literally does.
