My wife and I after three weeks of discussion went back to the furniture store to purchase a dining room set ( six footer w/ extension leafs & chairs ) but noticed prices across the entire showroom have shot up 30% on all products putting us outside of our budget. Walking out, I asked who's buying this stuff at those prices to which my wife responded with, "They are not bought, but financed."

Our next stop was the grocery store where meat has risen by +30% per lb. in a matter of a week.

Is anyone else noticing these sudden changes?

Does anyone have any theories/speculation to what is happening?

You first

I already know what happens and I'm not under the delusion that I actually "own" my property because of that.

Ok good because I’m not actually stupid enough to stop paying property taxes

Wow you're dumb. I used that example to drive home the point home that because they can seize your real estate if you don't pay taxes, you don't really own it. I didn't expect you'd be dumb enough to not pay your property taxes in real life, however, now I'm not so sure about that by your reply. Considering the sub you have the most comments in, QStorm, I guess I should not have given you the benefit of the doubt on your intelligence in the first place.
