From eggs up 170% to health insurance, housing, and fuel all climbing double-digits, everyday Americans—especially Gen Z—are feeling the squeeze. Markowski exposes why the Fed’s claims are pure spin, how Washington’s borrow-and-print cycle keeps driving prices higher, and why government waste at fiscal year-end adds insult to injury. If you’ve ever felt like official inflation numbers don’t match your grocery bill, you’re right.
