Food costs would go down if Biden implemented some commonsense energy policies.
Fact. Wholesale gasoline prices closed at $1.55/gal at the end of January 2021, and reached a high of $4.32 during the Ukraine peak. Even prior to Ukraine, Biden’s stupid energy policies increased the price to $2.43. Today, we’re at $2.52, which represents a 62% increase in fuel costs to transport the food to your local store.
Edit, data is from NYMEX for the person who would yell, “Where’s your data! Is it peer-reviewed?”
3 out of the past 4 weeks my grocery bill was nearly $500 for a single cart.
