The Chritmas before my wife passed we did a Prime Rib from the freezer instead of turkey. Everyone enjoyed it for Christmas dinner.
I commented at the time how we'd paid $15.41 kg for it in the fall and it was a lot more by Christmas.

Planning for this year, I just looked it up and Prime Rib is currently $66.09kg at GougeOn, same place we got that last one. More than quadrupled in price in 3 years. 330% increase.
Over 60% yearly inflation.

I agree beef prices (and many other products) have becme unbearable but, iti s an industry problem and the industry passes it's cost to the consumer...as with all other products.

"Droughts in North America have forced many cattle producers to reduce their herds, resulting in tighter supplies. Higher food costs, elevated interest rates—crucial for the capital-intensive cattle industry—and downsizing herds have collectively pushed prices to record levels." and they say if you think it is high now, wait till 2025. We even import beef form Mexico now.

Worse is that we import so much of our foos stuffs and our dollar suck and we have to pay the exporters expenses too..

I do not and cannot defend or even explain inflation but, I do look at it from a realistic point of view. We in Canada are consumers as opposed to producers and have to pay the going rate.

It's one of the things that gets missed in the talk about inflation. Inflation calculation is basically this imaginary bag of goods that the government has made up to give an example of whether or not prices in general have gone up. But for the average person the majority of their money is spent on food travel and lodging

So if any of those three things go up disproportionately then the actual felt inflation rate for an individual may be considerably higher than the inflation rate for the country. 

Politicians often talk about the inflation rate like it's an absolute value, but it's completely arbitrary and individual inflation rates may be substantially different even for large groups. I think that was one of the problems for the democrats in the states, they legitimately believe that inflation was under control but for a lot of people the prices really hadn't returned to a for an affordable level for them especially for items where they had less discretion in their spending such as rent and gasoline

Politicians base it on a basket of goods from the 1950s when wifey stayed home and baked bread, cookies and cakes herself and people thought meat loaf and tuna casseroles were delicious food.
Bread, milk, eggs and 10 lb bags of flour, rice, potatoes and sugar aren't the main contents of anyone's shopping cart these days and have kept their inflation claims to the lowest.
Did a job at a ranch today, the guy pointed out a large steer he'd been offered $3000 for. He was happy he'd put a couple of his herd in the freezer as he'd never afford beef from a supermarket.

It's actually even more manipulative than you're letting on. And they're not shy about it, they specifically state that they change their formulas and what is and is not included to avoid lots of ups and downs and level the numbers over time. They even exclude rents from volatile markets and other things to make sure the numbers stay flat, but they're not actually very representative of what the felt inflation is for people in different parts of the country. It's more like a base minimum. It's not the same as the inflationary pressure on a person living in downtown Vancouver. Which is where I used to live until I realize what would happen over time if things didn't change, and boy am  i glad i did.  

For a young person living in the city who has to pay for rent and food at today's prices and even transportation to be earning  a very good income just to be a hair above broke

Anyone who singles out a group of people who were born with a condition like Autism, is a piece of garbage.

There's nothing to be ashamed of. Lots of people are autistic.

And there's nothing disgusting about it kiddo. You have been far far more disgusting. You spent weeks posting ass porn.

Guess I struck a nerve, but if you're autistic honestly as I said that's nothing to be terribly ashamed of. But it does mean you have to occasionally look at your behavior and see if it's appropriate.

Don't blame me for your own challenges

You literally were happy about someone being shot because you didn't like them and thought they made too much money. 

Sorry kid, no moral high ground for you :) 

Also you accused me of being a child sex offender pretty much in your first comments to me. So... yeah, sorry but you've already set that bar far below autism. 

But now that i know it bugs you i'll probably bring it up to p^ss you off from time to time ;)
