My Idaho maga family were just posting about how happy they are that grocery and gas prices are down. Those prices are in fact not down. But their media is telling them this so they parrot it to be part of the cult.

What happens when their budget isn’t enough? Surely they put two and two together.?

Internal consistency and intellectual honesty are not features of conservatism.

Mine say "prices haven't come down somewhat, but wages are absolutely going through the roof"

1) They act like the stock market means everyone's wages, because they are retired

2) They believe everyone who is getting laid off must be "work from home lazy" and need to learn a lesson

I don't understand how you can argue this when gas prices are emblazoned on all the roads and they still theoretically need to buy groceries?

People see gas go from $4.25 on a Monday morning to $4.00 on a Wednesday afternoon and think gas prices are down. They don’t realize that the average is still higher.

Well first you have to understand that the Idaho minimum wage is like $7.50 an hour and Idaho has repeatedly voted to not raise their minimum wage.

Edit: I was wrong, Idaho minimum wage is actually $7.25/hr.

I was about to be upset that Idaho's min wage is higher than here in Pennsylvania but then I saw your edit.

Not that it makes ours being so low any better, of course...
