Леня постит "свои мысли" из Твитера, или пересказывает их своими словами, его якобы мысли оправдывают оранжевого сенильного президента, что бы он ни делал, как будто он на зарплате у адмиистрации Трампа

Инфляция на отдельные товары уже идет полным ходом, но трамписты этого в упор не видят

Based on the most recent information available as of August 8, 2025:

Overall Food Prices: Food prices in the US are continuing to rise, with the Consumer Price Index for all food showing a 3.0% increase in June 2025 compared to June 2024.
Groceries (Food at Home): The CPI for food-at-home (groceries) increased 0.2% from May 2025 to June 2025 and was 2.4% higher than in June 2024.
Dining Out (Food Away From Home): The CPI for food-away-from-home (restaurant and other foodservice purchases) increased 0.4% from May 2025 to June 2025 and was 3.8% higher than in June 2024.
Specific Categories: Prices for some categories, like eggs (up 27.3%), meat, poultry, fish, and eggs (up 5.6%), nonalcoholic beverages (up 4.4%), and sugar and sweets (up 5.5%), are seeing particularly significant increases year-over-year.

Factors Contributing to Price Increases: Several factors continue to contribute to the rise in food prices, including:

Higher production costs: Farmers are facing increased costs for seeds, fertilizers, animal feed, and equipment.
Labor shortages: The food industry is experiencing labor shortages, particularly in agriculture and food manufacturing.
Extreme weather events: Droughts, fires, and other climate-related events are impacting agricultural output and driving up prices, according to Ramsey Solutions.
Global supply chain issues: Disruptions caused by geopolitical tensions, trade restrictions, and increased transportation costs are affecting the price of both imported and domestic foods.
Corporate profits and inflation: Some food companies are seeking to maintain or increase profitability amid volatile conditions, while broader inflation continues to impact purchasing power, according to NerdWallet.

The MAGA stock market will boom

Consumer Impact: A majority of Americans are stressed about rising grocery costs, and lower-income households are particularly impacted, often having to compromise on healthy food choices due to the increased expense, according to Forbes.

In summary, food prices are indeed rising in the US, with notable increases in several categories. This trend is expected to continue for the remainder of 2025, although possibly at a slower pace than in recent years, according to The Packer.

stock market rise doesn't mean good quality of life for most americans

Rising stock markets don't necessarily equate to a better quality of life for most Americans, primarily due to the significant concentration of stock ownership among a small percentage of the population and the disproportionate impact of market fluctuations on this segment

Wealth concentration and stock ownership

The wealthiest 10% of Americans own 93% of all stocks, while the bottom 50% hold only 1%.
Therefore, a rising stock market directly benefits only a narrow portion of the population

Americans have a somewhat negative view of the Republican Party. While 38% viewed the party favorably in July 2025, down from 44% in November 2024
Trump Approval: President Trump's approval ratings are relatively steady but still negative. A July 2025 Marquette Law School Poll found his approval at 45% and disapproval at 55%. Another poll conducted July 29-Aug 3, 2025, showed a -5 net approval rating for Trump, according to a Hart Research Associates/Public Opinion Strategies poll.

Inequality and other factors
Wealth Inequality: Wealth inequality in the US has substantially increased since the late 1980s, with the top 1% holding a significantly larger share than the bottom 50%.
Impact on the Economy: While some argue that a rising stock market signals economic dynamism, for many, wages have stagnated, benefits have eroded, and opportunities have narrowed, according to the Coalition For A Prosperous America.
Quality of life factors: Quality of life is a multifaceted concept that extends beyond financial indicators like the stock market. It encompasses factors such as:
Economic Stability: Job opportunities, income levels, and access to resources.
Education Access and Quality: Access to quality education and literacy skills.
Health Care Access and Quality: Access to affordable and quality healthcare.
Neighborhood and Built Environment: Safe housing, transportation, and neighborhoods.
Social and Community Context: Social connections, discrimination, and violence.

In essence, while a strong stock market can contribute to wealth growth, particularly for those with significant investments, it's crucial to acknowledge that its benefits aren't evenly distributed and other factors contribute significantly to the overall quality of life for the majority of Americans.
