It is outrageous, if unsurprising,

1. Saw Tyson CEO on CNBC the other day. He was all smiles. And praised by the anchors.

The American oligarchs we have allowed to rise to such power have no interest in curbing prices or serving consumers.

They are only interested in their own short term gain.

One of the anchors pointed out that CEOs who hold the line on prices are getting removed by corporate boards, while CEOs who are taking advantage of "inflation" by jacking up prices are getting obscenely richer by the day.

2. That doesn't surprise me. The corporate media's only tool in determining

whether economics in America is sound or not is the stock market, that's it.

They only bring up inflation because it can be an adverse dynamic against the stock market and to be used as a propaganda strategy to dampen wage increases earned by workers.

So with them wage increases for the average worker might contribute to inflation but the tax avoidance methods and ridiculous bonuses paid out to CEOs which of course have a dampening effect on the corporation's stock value, contribute to an increasingly dysfunctional, stratified society and government budget deficits is not to be considered as detrimental to our economy.

The corporate media have too many inherent conflicts to be an honest broker in regards to economics, environmentalism or corporate supremacy.
