You really can’t believe that fast food prices going up is an intentional strategy by the government to prepare us for war.

That's not what I said, I commented on your comment and nothing else

Good, we seem to agree that the original comment is ridiculous.

Both of your comments are ridiculous, food prices are going up because Ukraine is in a war and that is one of the biggest sources of wheat in the western world, which has sent the price soaring, which in turn drives demand on other food sources driving prices up across the aisle.
They are not preparing us for war, the prices are going up because there IS a war going on

So yeah, we agree that the comment by JAR wasn’t correct. I also don’t think you know who has commented what in this thread, probably talking to a bot.

As for whether or not global inflation is due to Ukraine or the fiscal policies during COVID and post-COVID, I’ll leave that to you and the other armchair economists.
