Small rant…
In the past 2 years, gas prices where I am have doubled. House costs have doubled or tripled. Vehicles have doubled in price. The same groceries cost almost twice the amount they did prior to 2020. Inflation is going up rapidly.
What hasn’t changed, is the fact that a 2% annual raise is considered generous (which most people don’t even get). Also what hasn’t changed is average annual incomes. Just everything around them has gone up. Taxes, cost of living, etc.
Seriously what the fuck is going on?
