Every person I've known who has worked at big box retail/fast food has gotten much larger raises (10-20x) in a year. Also, outside of oil, what has had ridiculous price increases that were the result of inflation and not regulation. |
Food comes in smaller packages and/or is higher priced than it was a couple years ago. I'm not going to go into detail as around 90% of food products, junk food or not has had huge increases. Ramen noodles are over twice the cost they were 15 years ago. $.25 for four on sale or $.35 for one instead of $.10.
