Never actually said whether things are more expensive now...only that most people think they are.

Good job, folks! Another stellar piece of journalism. This is why Americans are perpetually uninformed.

Well, the short article was about a public perception poll...

Still, the context of how inflation works and if they are accurate is helpful. Saying all are indeed higher, but which are much higher is important. Highlighting where certain groups are misidentifying trends is also important. There is no point in having short articles about people’s opinions if those opinions are not put in context. That is the posters point. This is just clickbait not news.

Shhhh. You're talking about critical thought and Americans. The only thing their vast spectrum is still United in is downvoting anything they perceive to be an attack on their beliefs. In this case, some will think you're pro-Biden and some will think you're pro-Trump, the rest won't know what to think and that makes them uncomfortable. All the while, none of that was your actual point.

Shuutup Ruzzian bot!
The campist indoctrinated simplistic pavlovian response you get from these simpletons.

It's from a Blue MAGA outlet, of course there is a point.
It's the same orange man bad slop as this community.

It sure would hit harder if the writer weren't too cowardly to conclude with "and therefore X% of Americans are objectively wrong."

Facts in the US?

Is that a thing?

We used to have facts machines in offices - but that was a while back.
