As we transition into the first semi-normal year since 2019, and the second year of Biden\u2019s presidency, hopefully the current trend will subside and prices will return to normal, though the reality looks to be significantly gloomier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo Cred: Patrick Semansky\/AP<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Andrew Morris New reports have come in this week by the Labor Department which stated a .8% goods and service cost increase in the consumer price index over the past month, extrapolating to a 6.8% yearly increase, topping rates since June of 1982.
