Rising utility costs have been front and center in the affordability crisis discussions, all over the nation.  Trump says it's a myth. It's fair to point this out.

. Both parties are corrupt and have hand in what is happening right now. But yes Trump ran on lowering prices of stuff like this and it's instead going up. Drastically. Any saving on gas, which is not a ton, is completely off set and then some by these home heating/energy increases.  I am seeing people who's bills are going from $200 month to $800. Who the fuck can swing that on a moments notice? And it's everyone. It's almost like it has to be a mistake it's so absurd.

This isnt a left/right issue. It's an Up/Down issue. The oligarchs in this country need to remember history and be very wary.

@shooter Rampant corruption LMAO.  You voted for Walz, overseeing one of the largest corruption cases in history, while also supporting Harris, complicit in the largest conceal job in history.  Talk about corrupt.  World-standing again lmao.  What world-standing?  The freaks in Europe who are destroying themselves?  Secret police? Do you mean ICE agents cleaning up the open border your party created?  

 

You couldn't go on and on.  Because other than his horrible personality defects there's zero comparison between the policies of the administrations.  You're just a Walz type.  That's the reality.  In every way.

And the fat ass?  Good Lord man we've seen your build.  

stay on topic. I hate to break it to you, your coming off as an out of touch douche right now. I'm not defending Shooter either. Just stay on topic. This is one that should enrage everyone, regardless of who ones votes for. Because it's pretty obvious, in this case, both parties are fucking us. Royally. 

 

At any point you can choose freedom.

@mrhighlife Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit.  I was perfectly "in touch" inasmuch as I was replying to Shooter's post not your initial post.  With respect to your concern:

"Colder temperatures mean increased natural gas usage, which impacts the delivery portion of customers’ bills. There are two primary components of natural gas bills – the cost of delivering natural gas to customers (shown on the bill as “Delivery Charges”) and the cost of natural gas itself (shown on the bill as “Gas Supply Charges”). TheGas Supply Charge or the cost of natural gas itself is driven by market prices, and NIPSCO does not control or mark up these costs. Delivery Charges cover the cost of safely and reliably operating and maintaining the system that brings natural gas to homes and businesses. These charges go toward maintaining our 18,100 miles of distribution pipelines and 720 miles of transmission pipelines, responding to service calls, and ensuring safe, reliable service for more than 900,000 customers. They also fund system upgrades to improve safety, reliability, and long-term service, as well as financing the cost of those improvements."

@shooter Where were you during Bidenomics?  On a BLM protest?  No different than the border and all the rest Trump and Republicans are trying to put out the fire of your Progressive policies.  Worst president and admin in US history.

Data is now propaganda?  That explains your posture on just about any topic.  Denial of data in favor of emotions.

What’s your allegation exactly? Price fixing? Government kick backs?  

You can’t just scream “oligarchs” and expect people to follow along.

It hasn't even gotten fun yet.  Ride it down to 40k and let me know how you feel 😁 Bitcoin will make a man out of you if you let it.  Always remember 1 Bitcoin = 1 Bitcoin.

@snarlcakes I love when people @larsiu can't see the forest for the trees.  Whenever you question your investment, what you're doing, just always circle back to 1 Bitcoin = 1 Bitcoin.

The politicians can't con the people when it comes to prices. People know when stuff is expensive and they're struggling to make ends meet. Prices are high and, in many cases, continuing to rise. 

According to Kiplinger, gas (utilities) and electric bills are up 9.6% and 5.6% respectively, year over year. Home insurance premiums rose 6.25% January to November (December not yet available) 2025. Some good news - - gasoline prices fell 4.4% in 2025.

Regarding food prices, bread prices are down slightly year over year and egg prices are down bigly.  Almost everything else is up, though, and in some cases (beef and coffee), w-a-a-y up. Grocery prices overall are up 2.4% since January 2025.

Trump's poll numbers on the economy are tanking.  He's actually underwater on every major issue including immigration.  That surprised me because I like what he did in securing the southern border, and so do most Americans.  However, the ICE/deportations issue is pulling his immigration poll numbers down.

dude. i get it. I'm going to buy the dip. I read the other day 95% of all Bitcoin has been mined. "It's the new gold" etc etc. But, if it's all owned by large institutional investors, how is different than any other corporately owned asset. has it jumped the shark? Or, does it matter b/c it can be fractionalized.

I don't think of Trump or even MAGA as left or right.  I think of them as evil and corrupt. MAGA should not be ruling the Republican party or even a part of it, as Aloha often points out.
