The originator sets the initial price, promotes the hell out of it, and it rises or fall depending on how much it gets used. Itβs hard to tax, easy to launder and easy to pump and dump.
And there are no consumer safeguards.

Since the week this president was sworn-in Iβve tracked the price of the same seven items at the same grocery (Publix at 13th and 39th, Gainesville) nearly every week. As of yesterday (11/21) that basket of groceries costs 8.81% more than it did on 1/20.

This is why folks treat elections the way they do - no one is showing people how it directly affects them.
The president is spending the weekend golfing at his private estate (on your dime) while his lawyers (also on your dime) sue states to keep them from distributing your tax money so your neighbors can buy food.
Thank you for your attention to this matter, and Happy Sunday!
If you find yourself angry that the new mayor of a city you donβt live in wants free bus rides for everybody in his city but you donβt care that the president CAN release money for people having a hard time to buy groceries, but WONβTβ¦ this might be a good time to quietly reconsider your positions.
