    Do people really like a butt like hers? It looks way to big imo. But then again, I’m a girl.

    My first thought was Latin America but according to the patch it’s Israel.

    IIRC inflation is the devaluation of the dollar and the laymen “inflation” people commonly talk about is the CPI, which is the actual price of goods and services (I.E. this is what you are actually paying, rather than how much power the dollar has overall). I could be wrong but it is an important distinction because it tells us exactly how F*ed we’re getting by companies and corporations.

    TL;DR: Bugles cost way to friggin much now >:(

      In economics, inflation is an increase in the general price level of goods and services in an economy.

      The common measure of inflation is the inflation rate, the annualized percentage change in a general price index. As prices faced by households do not all increase at the same rate, the consumer price index (CPI) is often used for this purpose.

      Source: Wikipedia

      So basically, inflation is annualized CPI. The corporations haven’t gotten more greedy; inflation has gone up.

      [What follows is my opinion and not fact]

      And the way we calculate CPI includes a bunch of stuff we don’t actually need and have gotten cheaper, like electronics. If it was just essentials like food and health care, then the official numbers would look much worse.

    I prefer width over volume, personally. Right just looks…wrong. but that’s my personal preference and I’m not gonna knock anyone for liking it.
