Americans just got hit with new government numbers on consumer prices, and guess what? Things are going up—again. Anyone who’s actually paying attention to their family budget isn’t surprised. The Consumer Price Index for March spells it out: prices are still rising, and energy costs are leading the charge. This isn’t some fluke. It’s the direct result of disastrous left-wing policies that keep funneling American dollars into the pockets of global oil cartels and green energy racketeers.
Liberals in Washington would love for folks to believe higher prices are simply the “cost of progress” or, worse, just a blip that’s totally normal. Tell that to the mom putting gas in her car or trying to keep her house warm. As energy prices soar, every grocery trip and utility bill hits like a punch in the gut. The White House spins the numbers, claiming there’s “good news” buried in these reports. Sorry, but Americans can’t pay for groceries with talking points.
The truth is, while economists expected this inflation, that’s not exactly comforting. Complacency is how the swamp survives. They want people to accept higher prices as the new normal. Meanwhile, blue state lawmakers cheer on the globalists pushing reckless energy policies, all while average Americans get stuck with the bill. It’s shameful that in the world’s strongest country, our own government undermines energy independence in the name of phony climate virtue-signaling.
Let’s not kid ourselves—this inflation train started when Joe Biden took office and immediately waged war on American energy. From shutting down pipelines to begging foreign dictators for oil, they’ve put ideology over families. Instead of boosting U.S. drilling, the left punishes our producers while propping up their green cronies with taxpayer cash. The only people benefiting are out-of-touch elites and anti-American billionaires.
So, sure, the latest numbers are “as expected.” But if Americans want normalcy—real, affordable living—they’ll have to start by rejecting the same politicians who think higher prices are a joke. Since when did Washington forget who they’re supposed to serve? Maybe it’s time for them to feel the pinch at the ballot box.
