Inflation or Greed?

 I go to 'Whole Foods' regularly, which means once every five years!!!

It is called Whole Foods because it costs you a whole paycheck.

I ended up in Whole Foods this time because I had to return stuff to Amazon. I met an elderly gentleman who was almost 85-90 years old. As I complained under my breath about unreasonably high prices on the shelves, he smiled and said:

"Our Federal government thinks it's all due to inflation. No, my son, this is all due to the greed of big chain corporations and business owners who jacked up prices in the pandemic, digested all government loans without paying them back, and now don't want to bring prices back down. It's not inflation; it's all greed."
