Bidenflation s Hunger Games: Soaring Food Prices Leave Americans Struggling

Virginia Woolf, the English writer who pioneered the stream of consciousness as a narrative device wisely stated in her 1929 novel A Room of One’s Own, “One cannot think well, love well, or sleep well if one has not dined well.” No one can deny that food is a necessity, fundamental to our well-being and survival.

However, President Biden seems to be evading any discussion about the ‘foodflation’ crisis that has emerged under his watch. When confronted with such questions, he often deflects, attributing it to his predecessor, corporate greed, or shrinkflation. His responses are, at best, dismissive and, at worst, misleading. Even the media, seemingly biased in favor of Biden, appears reluctant to ask food-related questions and hold the president accountable.

I’m not afraid of Virginia Woolf, but c’mon man. Still, yeah, foodflation is probably the no. 1 problem. They’re called bread riots for a reason. I guess this is written this way so as not to scare us boomers.
