This is horrific on so many levels. I can't imagine how much trauma this is all causing. 😭

Good grief. I'm glad I saw this. The ALL feed is awful. Ack.

Exactly this.

It's very curious to me how the economic indicators can seem so positive while people are still feeling the pangs of increased prices across the board.

There have been various articles/studies shared recently which indicate corporations have been taken advantage of consumers. We've heard terms like "greed'flation" to describe it. This article then says Biden alluding to this "is suspicious to many economists."

Are economic indicators not able to capture "greedflation"? Is it a thing or not? Something I need to do more reading on I suppose.

UPDATE: example article / study

• Fortune: The biggest study of ‘greedflation’ yet looked at 1,300 corporations to find many of them were lying to you about inflation
• The referenced joint study by think tanks IPPR and Common Wealth found profiteering by some of the world’s biggest companies forced prices up significantly higher than costs during 2022.

What the... Erm...

I love Boost. And Sync is great.

How that happened is beyond me. 😳

100 billion percent this

Exactly. I reread this twice because I felt like I had certainly read it wrong in the first place... which I had not...

Appreciate the heads up. 😊

And now that I've seen this article, I've watched a clip for a broadcast I normally wouldn't give a rat's bottom about. Thanks Apple!

Thanks for this! I forwarded it on to a few little ones who I know really enjoy the show. 😊

Awesome! I've been traveling a lot and I guess I missed this!
