The producer price index rose a seasonally adjusted 1.4% for the month, much higher than the 0.5% Dow Jones consensus forecast and the upwardly revised 0.7% March increase.
Energy was at the root of the unexpectedly high gain in producer prices, though there was evidence that the price pain is extending beyond the gas pump.
The services index accelerated 1.2%, the biggest gain since March 2022. Two-thirds of the move was attributed to a 2.7% gain in trade services, a sign that tariff costs could be starting to have a larger impact on prices.

here are the CPI inflation rates, annually adjusted, since 1913:
https://www.minneapolisfed.org/about-us/monetary-policy/inflation-calc ulator/consumer-price-index-1913-
Inflation in 2022 was 8.0 percent for the year.
That is the highest figure since 1981.

So you're saying that inflation right now is as bad as it was after two years of global pandemic..
It hasn't even been 3 months since we shoved our dick into this hornet's ness.
Did Biden cause covid? No. Did Trump cause Iran? He sure seems to think so according to a speech he gave (38:32 timestamp):
>I called in Scott Bessent and all of my people, mostly my financial people. And I said, “Alright, folks, congratulations. We just hit the highest price in the history of the stock market.” . . . Oil prices were very low. They were $60 and $70 [per barrel]. They were buying [gas] for $2 and even less. . . . In Iowa, it was $1.85 a gallon.
>I said, “Congratulations. Now I’m going to upset the apple cart for you, because we have to take a little journey down to a beautiful country known as Iran, and we have to make sure that they don’t have a nuclear weapon.” We stopped them with the B-2 bombers. If we didn’t do that, we would’ve had a nuclear weapon.

On the micro level, price increases are quite low, and on the macro level these increases are due to oil shortages.
This will be rectified quite soon, as our great President tRump gets Iran under control.

Biden decided to back Ukraine, which caused the price of Gas to spike in 2022. Biden decided to blow up Nordstream 2, and cut the flow of energy from Russia to Germany. All these things increased the price of energy, and all of it was optional. When Crimea was invaded in 2014, Obama did not decide to back Ukraine, and the price of gas was stable. Obama made a different decision

Lol you're like that picture of Charlie from always sunny with all the sticky notes and strings on the map.
You know that's a different gas right? Natural gas and gasoline are way different things. So you don't think a global shutdown causing a massive drop in demand for GASOLINE had anything to do with future supply and prices of GASOLINE, and instead think that Biden agreeing to supply arms to Ukraine and breaking away from Russian NATURAL GAS is what caused GASOLINE prices to go crazy? Or something?
I would point out how silly your worldview is but you support a literal child fucker so I can be a bit more understanding.

So when the average price at the pump hit $5 a gallon in the summer of 2022, that had nothing to do with the War in Ukraine?
What's next, the current price increases have nothing to do with the war in Iran?

And let me guess... Biden did that™?
Lol Trump was right when he said he could rape your mom on live tv and you'd still vote for him.
Oh wait my mistake, he just said he could murder someone and you people would never care.
That's the truest thing he's ever said.

The decision of Biden to back Ukraine in 2022, instead of rolling over like Obama did in 2014 when Russia invaded Crimea, caused the price of gasoline to rise.
The decision of Trump to back Israel in 2026 instead of rolling over like Obama did with the Iran nuclear deal caused the price of gasoline to rise.

No tax on tips is not a huge platform and is an issue with bipartisan support. Claiming that for the right is like claiming highway maintenance and that dems are pro potholes. Which I bet you'd argue since you fucks can only engage with strawmen.
Why is that an issue you care about? Is it because you want to help working class people, the only people who work for tips?
Cool. You know what would also help? A tax credit for buying a home for the first time, or for having your first child. That was part of democratic platform outlined in a nationally televised debate after the lunatic that just doubled the price of gas by losing a war to a third world country raved about immigrants eating people's pets; the same fuckwit who raised the price of everything with illegal retaliatory tarrifs that our tax dollars will have to reimburse companies that passed the cost onto us for. Gee, it was totally worth electing him to get to keep all of your tips, and that brilliant logic is why you're a fucking server in the first place you stupid racist piece of shit.
Didn't even build the fucking wall, just gave border agents more money than the marines and had them start harassing brown people, regardless of citizenship.

As little as is it may be, perhaps the retards are the ones still trying to gain power based on the economy when they fucked it up completely last time they had power.
All I hope is that voters will remember last time and vote accordingly. Because Democrats never learn and you deserve no power.

Yeah, when there's an election to be won it's bipartisan. Once the elections over the terror begins.

There's not one continuous wall, there are a bunch of sections of various types of wall. There's also stretches with no barrier at all. He sold those morons on the idea that he'd build a giant wall across the entire border and make Mexico pay for it. I don't think we should move the goalpost by pointing to a bunch of shit that was already there and letting him take credit, though that is his MO.

>Bipartizan
Backed in the 2024 campaign by both sides. Senate bill introduced by Ted Cruz but supported across the aisle. Passed senate unanimously, 100-0.
Yes, bipartisan dipshit.
>Wow, I guess that means I just tried to use a bad faith strawman of the last admin. Wow, I'm a stupid faggot.
Yeah, I know, we all do. It's the only thing you people do.
