Anyone got a good source on how bad this really is?
So how do you go about controlling inflation with the Euro, when different countries are facing massively different inflation rates?
The single currency has just been issue after issue.
It’s kinda strange how most people don’t seem to mind/notice that the state is essentially stealing your savings by printout out more money, which devaluates what you already have.
Unless you’re rich and have most money in assets, of course, then you just become richer as lower class becomes poorer.
So if you’re a lower / lower-middle class, you get exploited and underpaid by your company, taxes on your salary, taxed on everything you buy, then again ‘taxed’ via inflation so that the state can ideally support companies that have been exploiting you workers.. And if you get into financial troubles it’s all your fault and you have to bear the consequences with no help from state. Feudalism 2.0.
I wish Ireland wasn’t so fucking expensive for fucking everything.

Wonder what caused the huge inflation in Eastern Europe
Eurostat has different figures – https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/databrowser/view/PRC_HICP_MANR__custom_118059/bookmark/table?lang=en&bookmarkId=45a0a8c6-966f-43c6-9d30-9edb61e4af3b
