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.

MOre torture and abuse foor the day---beginning the moment I woke up, now eating. Tears torture----tears brimming and my nasal passages liquid from the microchip implants forcing this---destruction to my skin ravaged, broken down, scarred and aged like sandpaper my skin texture under my eyes and around my eyes--in an attempt to create wrinkles, destruction premature aging and torture. Praying for their destruction in all ultimate 6 feet under please Gawd destroy them the pig depp family shitalina not-jolie dirty filth pig pitt the rump family of shit muck the sick crud and termini-gger arnold ugly sick dirty nazi who is a threat to the united states and sick stupid america keeps welcoming in it's own enemies from within. The lists of these people politicians included is so lengthy so just try to change the entire system for the most part. There needs to be term limits for celebrities like the politicians they become ossified dino sick and demented on power, psychopaths and sick loveless and searching for an endless spotlight. The one movie which has come out in years which is actually meaningful is The Substance and the lead star did not appear in the teleportation but probably was involved with this for her promotion at some level as her interviews had been hacked endlessly but not like most of the stupid sick leeches like this dirty filth from depp and his group. They are sick and ugly and dirty I suggest people try to find people who want to make America great not a grotesque nazi-occupied colonized vassal state (slave state this is what they are working towards).
