I am way to old to be scared anymore and I think everyone is crazy except me didn't mean to hijack this thread. Thank you for sharing your insight to this topic of inflation but maybe I am the crazy one here because I do thing food prices are really going crazy oops there is that word again.

In the words of Waylon Jennings:

"I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane
Nobody knows if it's something to bless or to blame
So far I ain't found a rhyme or a reason to change
I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane"

I resemble that remark.

Oh, great. Now I have Ozzy Osbourn singing in my head.

You know you are bad when even your SO sometimes looks at you like you are crazy.

It would mean more if you saw it in comparison over the last hundred years. Is there more now than any other time in the last century? I dunno. Haven't studied. But I remember a LOT of chaos when I was in middle school. So much war going on that the end times were nigh and we were all gonna be nuked.

So just saying. Lots of unrest, but people DO that. Although, I do think finances are gonna keep spiraling down and chaos is gonna be the only reaction

Food prices are much lower that they were in the early 1900s. Agricultural subsidies changed in the 1970s, driving down the cost of food. Read about the policy changes under the leadership of Ed Butz, if you're interested.
