On an average month, we Gas up 4 to 5 times. Plus we purchase Food and other common items each month for a total of about $1,150 to $1,250.

(ammo costs not included ☺)

Using my own EWAG adjustment, I would feel comfortable in saying we are easily in the MID to HIGH $300 per month for the 2021-2022 Biden tenure.

Or about $3,600 to $4,500 ++ more per year.

Come to think of it...
Doesn't that wipe out all of the 2020-2021 Biden C-19 Stimulus Checks and more, since these higher prices will be here to stay for years?

#4 Stupid fvcks. Fracking + lower gas prices alone SAVED ordinary Americans THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS PER YEAR per household. Magoo and his gerbil worming idiots destroyed these savings, made Russia flush with oil revenues and put us on the back foot worldwide.

It's getting harder and harder to believe this colossal destruction of our wealth and independence was not deliberate.

#5 At the point where inflation starts harming the amount of chinese made crap purchased in the US, Joe will get a phone call from his boss.

#6 From the Left, who can't meme, not too long ago:

"Tired of hearing you complain about the price of gas while you are buying a $10 cup of coffee!"

Didn't last long. Think somebody figured out why that cup of coffee now costs $10.
