You’ve no doubt noticed that inflation has become a problem, but don’t let that get you down, because CNBC is reporting that there’s a “silver lining” to it all:

Inflation’s silver lining: higher salaries https://t.co/DmXuzKlX8z

Wow, that spin sounds like it could have come straight from the Biden press office!

That's NOT how it works.https://t.co/Xcse0elVSk

You Democrat propagandists are shameless.

We’ve come to expect nothing less from the media.

Wages are nowhere close to rising at the same level as current inflation, largely because inflation makes business budgets tighter. This is an insanely elitist take that in noway reflects the real world.

Buying $8.00 gas and $20/lb ground beef is going to be awesome because my wages will go up? Seriously, do you guys eat paint chips in the break room?
