Did he forget he told everyone he would not touch SS or medicare as he would not of lied about that would he??

Rising price of diesel fuel under republican Badministration

 

an_light Today's nat. avg price:  $5.36

Before trump started a war he previously promised voters he would not do:  $3.76

 

Very expensive for certain makes of passenger cars/pickups and nearly ALL larger vehicles.

Increased delivery/production costs are passed on to consumers. (trump-inflation)

Strait of Hormuz:

Reopening the Strait of Hormuz is becoming more pressing as global oil stockpiles are rapidly dwindling, the International Energy Agency warned.

 

**This is all due to trump (egged on by Netanyahu)

  Airfares high and rising!

 

 

Airfares in June, July and August were about 25% higher compared to a year ago, according to the Consumer Price Index, which is the government’s key inflation measure.

Airlines are cutting more flights this year in response to high fuel prices [caused by a needless war trump started in part to enrich himself and his billionaire oil-investor donors and all supported by the republicans of course]

Millions of Americans who buy cheap drugs from other countries could face higher prices soon because of new rule under Trump administration.  Extra fees and registration requirement for any shipment valued under $800.  Switching to US pharmacy can cost more.  For example, blood thinner drug that costs $565 from Canada would cost $1017 from Amazon.

an_speak   Inflation is moving uncomfortably higher, further eroding Americans’ pay gains, compounding affordability concerns, and keeping the economy – and the Trump Badministration’s handling of it – in focus for voters in advance of the coming blue wave in the House.

“We’re in a world now of inflation at 3.7% and wage gains for the typical American at only 3%; that’s a BIG gap,” said Heather Long, chief economist for Navy Federal Credit Union.

surprised HIGH diesel costs well into 2027!


FORTUNE, M.Arshad -
In its October Oil Market Report, released Wednesday, the International Energy Agency said the diesel market will stay tight well into 2027 and hinges on a recovery of fuel supply from the Middle East. Benchmark diesel prices have eased slightly from September's records above $200 a barrel, but remain nearly double both crude prices and their pre-crisis levels, and the IEA said depleted diesel stocks are unlikely to be rebuilt beyond normal seasonal swings before the second half of 2027. an_getaway
