FOG BLOG RIDICULOG: INFLATION & COST OF LIVING SKYROCKETING!
IT IS TRUE, THE COST OF LIVING IS GOING UP AT A TREMENDOUS RATE. FIRST THE COST OF GAS WAS 75 CENTS A LITRE EARLY IN 2020, YES WE HAD STAY AT HOME ORDERS BUT JUST TO COMPARE, IT IS NOW ALMOST DOUBLE AT $1.35 A LITRE RIGHT NOW. MILK HAS GONE UP ALMOST 50 CENTS FOR 2 LITRES. LAST YEAR AT THE BEGINING OF THE PANDEMIC IT WAS $1.57/ LITRE NOW IT IS $1.87 , FOR A WHILE IT WAS 10 CENTS CHEAPER THAN THAT ONLY MONTHS AGO. MOST MEAT IS AT $20./KG, WHO CAN AFFORD THAT. I GO INTO NO FRILLS AND SEE MANY WALKING RIGHT PAST THE MEAT, ESPECIALLY BEEF! NOW THE HOUSING MARKET , SAW A REAL UGLY HOUSE THE OTHER DAY, YES IT HAS SO MANY BEDROOMS AND 2 BATHS, YES IT LOOKS OVER THE BAY BUT ITS ON AN OLD NARROW DEAD END AND THEY WANT $399,000. FOR IT, LOOKS LIKE A SQUARE BOX. THEY MIGHT HAVE DONE RENOVATING BUT STILL. WHAT YOU COULD GET FOR 160,000 BEFORE THE PANDEMIC NOW YOU ARE GOING TO PAY OVER 200,000 AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE RENTS, THAT'S FOR ANOTHER RIDICULOG! WE NEED RENT CONTROL , OUR PREMIER HAS HAD THE REPORT ON THAT FOR ALMOST 2 MONTHS NOW AND DOES NOTHING! MOST PEOPLE ARE STILL STRUGGLING AND WILL HAVE A HARD TIME GETTING OUT OF THE PANDEMIC WITH LITTLE MONEY. HOPEFULLY THE GOVERNMENT WILL HELP US. THERE IS GOING TO BE A GENERAL ELECTION SOON. MAYBE HELPING THE CANADIAN PUBLIC FINANCIALLY WILL HELP!
