Deception/Lies: some of the biggie opiates of The People (in addition to "Religion" as Karl Marx and his fans would repeat).

 



Inflation reaches highest level since 1982 as consumer prices jump 7% in 2021




I went to the usual main marketplace/shopping mall/outlets a few days ago and prices have increased almost double-fold for many items in just the past two weeks. From small appliances such as fans to prices of food, it's nearly double. I have not heard of any type of shipping bottleneck supply-chain problem here in Thailand so no "excuse" for this huge increase/inflationary trend has been made. Ostensibly it is for tourism and to make-up for the years of lack that have created huge gaps in revenues for these huge conglomerate chains. The Tesco Chains have divested from the Tesco-Lotus brand and have returned to their corporate headquarters of England (or wherever, they have left Thailand). The store has exactly the same items minus the Tesco products which were few so the store which is now just called Lotus's is the same place with exactly the same items. But prices have gone up for all the stores in my vicinity. If I attempted to go to an outdoor Thai market for produce I would end-up paying what the Thais always charge me anyway: double the price they do for Thais. No prices are ever listed at these markets! But anyways---I hope the prices will be lowered once "high season" is over in May when rainy season kicks the tourists out. I also have to add that at smaller Mom n Pop stores in Phuket such as the dollar stores ("20 Baht" stores) no hike in prices is evident. No claims in Phuket newspapers about the result of "inflation" causing such huge hikes in prices because everyone knows prices always go up around peak holiday times of the New Year in these tourist places.

Thusly, I am skeptical of the US claims, or excuses, about supply chain problems and inflation being to "blame".

Retailers, conglomerates and their huge multi-international outlets are "making up" for lost revenue but people don't want to hear the reality of why. They need something to blame and these entities are easy to use as shields against just plain profit motive for quarterly losses for the past 2 years of the pandemic.

Artificially-rendered, throat microchip induced "tears torture" continues. Over 15 years of tears streaming out of my eyes daily to destroy eyesight, skin and endless torture. The tears are just moisting my eyes with near drops constantly spilling onto the extremely damaged, trending beyond permanent into destruction of the skin barrier of the under-eye area--the skin fragile like almost worn thin paper sanded down---endless tears due to the hate of the people exploiting me for decades can't ever stop now with teleportation despite me saying no ignoring them fighting to get them off they return fastidious to get MORE AND MOE AND MORE AND MORE out of me. For defending myself thusly "torture". They were MURDERING ME, the endless recurring batch of these euro-hate men I met or were involved in this torture have been MURDERING ME FOR YEARS with poisoning much less the daily torture, abuse and now they are using my landlord to torture me and really try to destroy my life through lies and financial sabotage to get more and more and more out of sucking my ideas my sexuality my life force and dumping filth, hate dirty filth trash garbage into on me my clothing my body my living space my environment they never stop grasping grabbing lunging at me abusing insulting every moment possible. I fight to get them off they use the microchip implants to torture me along with non-stop attacks in every direction every other minute of the day and night. This is what they want to implement as future policy with many more people. Somehow those in the political and celebrity and societal levels are confident they will always be the abusers and never have to worry so they are just laughing and thrilled.
