We're Paying HOW MUCH MORE under Biden?

Rapid Response

Since Biden took office, overall prices have shot up by 19.4% — a MASSIVE hit on hardworking Americans.

Nowhere is that price pain felt more than in the foods Americans buy every day.

SINCE BIDEN TOOK OFFICE…

  • Eggs are up 49.3%.
  • Gas is up 47.8%.
  • Peanut butter is up 40.1%.
  • Crackers are up 38.2%.
  • Flour is up 33.5%.
  • Butter/margarine is up 32%.
  • Salad dressing is up 30.6%.
  • Baby food is up 30.5%.
  • Sugar is up 29.1%.
  • Frozen vegetables are up 28.2%.
  • Bakery products are up 26.7%.
  • Soups are up 26.4%.
  • Steaks are up 24.8%.
  • Chicken is up 23.9%.
  • Pet food is up 23.7%.
  • Bread is up 23.7%.
  • Cereal is up 22.5%.
  • Coffee is up 19.6%.
  • Milk is up 15%.

Overall, grocery prices have surged by 21.1% since Biden took office. That’s a massive drag on Americans who are already paying more for just about everything during the Biden administration.

These unending price hikes (which Biden promised would be “transitory,” but was lying) have decimated Americans’ finances. Nearly two-thirds of Americans reported living paycheck-to-paycheck last year — an increase from 2022 — as credit card debt hits record highs and savings accounts dwindle.

That’s “Bidenomics!”
