That article is carrying a lot of water for the Trump administration. Nobody knows why prices are going up!
Unexpectedly? LMAO
“unexpectedly”. yep nobody anywhere ever saw it coming. idjits
This is the top comment on my screen and it’s perfect.
What’s unexpected about it? We re-elected a twice impeached anti-democratic felon rapist who utterly failed his last term.
Every American who could rub brain cells together warned this would happen.
Unfortunately, those people represent a minority in The Divided States of Dumbfuckistan.

Or, the people with 2 brain cells to rub together don’t call for ballot counting like cheerleaders of the dumbfucks do. Missing that 3rd brain cell…
sounds like BBC is doing damage control for mango mussolini.
the “unexpected” part is that the 3% is above the expected 2.9% rate. they’re being coy; the title implies the increase is unexpected while the text shows it’s just a tenth of a point above the rate that was expected.
the editors are not uneducated people. I bet they speak English pretty well. the wording is deliberately misleading.
Dem clicks doe
Then those interviewed and writing this article are idiots. 2024 article.
Yet most mainstream economists say Trump’s policy proposals wouldn’t vanquish inflation. They’d make it worse. They warn that his plans to impose huge tariffs on imported goods, deport millions of migrant workers and demand a voice in the Federal Reserve’s interest rate policies would likely send prices surging.
Sixteen Nobel Prize-winning economists signed a letter in June expressing fear that Trump’s proposals would “reignite’’ inflation, which has plummeted since peaking at 9.1% in 2022 and is nearly back to the Fed’s 2% target.
The Nobel economists noted that they aren’t alone in sounding the alarm.
When will we start seeing stickers at gas pumps and at grocery’s saying “Trump did this”.
How about flags saying “Let’s Go Eric” as an answer to all the let’s go Brandon flags
Let’s go Felon!
Wait. Unexpectedly for who? I certainly expected it. Most people I’ve talked with are also not surprised.
Unexpected by whom?
Republican voters
Dumb people doing dumb things
Say goodbye to the middle class. We just gave what was left of it to billionaires.
The “middle class” was just a scam our ruling class came up with to make us feel like we’re not at the bottom rung of the social economic ladder so we wouldn’t riot over being taken advantage of for decades. In reality there are only two classes the extremely rich and the poor.
In reality there are only two classes: the working class, and the ownership class.
Nah man my parents were able to build a really nice life from almost nothing by working hard and going to school. That doesn’t work anymore.
The oppression was there back then too, people put up with it more, and shared their thoughts with strangers less.
And if you put up with it and do what you are told, the ultra rich might let you build a “nice enough life”.
Leave it to USA Today to bring the bleak toxic positivity.
“unexpectedly” is a word they use but I am not sure they know what it means.
Just snuck up on everyone without warning! 🫣
Unexpectedly?
