Never Ever Use The Word Inflation – EVER!
Freedom Outpost
Last night, I was watching a mainstream media “news” story about inflation. The word inflation was never used. The correspondent discussed every aspect of cost increases and danced a beautiful word-dance, of course with a gigantic, glowing smile but never once addressed the elephant in the room. I explained to my wife that the correspondent is not allowed to use the word inflation as that would send shivers down the spine of the masses. It would also send all the people on a fixed income, like Social Security, to the local office to demand a larger cost of living raise. We can’t have that, better to starve them to death than to tell the truth. The truth was disguised as “smaller packages,” “less product” and every other form of Orwellian double-speak you can think of. Does anyone question what the story is about? Does anyone understand the story is telling you point blank that inflation is running at 10% or higher?
Here is a prime example of the current double-speak that is being spewed by public relations people at the mega food companies only to be parroted by the MSM for mass consumption.
…Minute Maid juice boxes had gone from 6.75 ounces to 6 ounces, but the price has stayed at $3.49.
…
Minute Maid told ABC News in a statement: “We are not immune to adverse impacts on our brands such as increasing commodity, fuel, packaging, and fruit costs. Earlier this year we introduced the 6 oz. package size for our juice boxes. The adjusted size allowed the business to successfully maintain retail prices amidst rising input costs while still providing preferred sizing for the category.” [source]
