Consumer Prices Up 6.8%, It's the highest inflation rate since 1982

[i am herdman]

OK, idiot. You're setting another sales record during a pandemic while having supply side problems and inflation that numbs YOUR mind. Sounds to me like that
"forced" price increase your company had to implement MORE than covered the cost of all those problems.

We cover from Florida to Virginia. We are in a growing market and we have had less lockdowns. We saw our biggest price increases in August to Sept. The cost of everything is going up or went up or is still going up. Do you understand all that price is passed on? Shipping goes up, fuel is up, all our supplies our up. Our inventory is up. We have to pass that cost on. As I stated the other day, what used to cost our customers $100,000 dollars is between $105,000 and $110,000. Our expenses have been down. Our primary industry never slowed down. Florida never slowed down. GA and SC followed and finally NC and VA followed. People moved here in droves.

But, back to the point. Why would we or anyone withhold products thinking we could make more money? That makes no damn sense. We don't like back orders sitting out there. That gets risky.. In my group alone we had over $3 million in backorders alone(was taking 6 weeks or more longer than normal to get) . I was close to a million myself. You think we like that?

Gee whiz man.

I just explained that to you, nit wit oath breaker.

It certainly makes sense as that's exactly what's happening an many cases. CEOs do what shareholders want....or they are no longer CEOs.

You're an idiot if you don't think it's happening. I'll give you an example....

The twin ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, which account for 40% of sea freight entering the United States, are working around the clock to address shipping container congestion.

The fines, which were announced in a joint statement from both port directors on Oct. 25, charge carriers $100 a day per container left on the dock.

Since the announcement of the new fees, which have yet to be imposed, both ports have seen the lingering containers reduced by 37%.

Hey boss let's hold products back so we can make more money.

Yehhh well we can't get the chips, batteries, components to make them. BUt, great idea let's hold products back to make more money,

As oil-well backlog shrinks, U.S. shale may upset investors and drill more

U.S. energy producers have cut so deeply into a once-large reserve of oil wells waiting to be turned on they soon may have to resume drilling to keep production from sagging, executives and analysts said.

Idiot.

I asked you if you were talking about oil only and you threw blanket statements out about all inflation and price changes.

Funny how oil and gas went up when Mush got elected and right after he started enacting executive orders limiting domestic production which made us more reliant on OPEC and others. hmmmm. Go figure.

Not once did I insinuate "all inflation and price changes", you stupid lying oath breaker.

Gas started going up in May of 2020, you lying idiot.

“The headline looks scary, but we don’t see any immediate impact from these executive orders.”

For those who are worried about your gasoline prices going up, this is definitely not the reason."

Doesn't sound like what you claimed CEO's were doing. In fact. Exactly the opposite. If they have products to sell, they will sell them. WM, Sam, HD, Tgt are all picking up the slack that other shippers and transporters are not.

 

[Kate Branson]

Holy cow, he got Ben Carson and Herman Cain mixed up like I do.

That makes us bad. Bad scientologists. Well, I never was able to go through with converting. I tried though. Book was too long and I probably can't even go to Columbus anymore. Nerves too shot.

If they get a chapter in Point Pleasant, I might try it out then.

They agreed to do this in October. Moron.

 

[herdfan429]

Extra have you noticed and increase in prices from raw materials and if it cost you more to make have you increased costs to your “customers”

 

[i am herdman]

That's because you're a lying idiot.

According to you, wouldn't they be better off to not help easy supply chain issues? That way they could charge more?

Should I turn this order in or tell the customer we can't get it and we can make more money?

 

[extragreen]

According to you, wouldn't they be better off to not help easy supply chain issues? That way they could charge more?

Are you saying that the companies mentioned couldn't have made a few phone calls to each other and came up with the same solution without being prompted by the president of the United States?? Not every company is attempting to fleece Americans but some are. For example Walmart and Target have resisted their investors desire to pass on more of the higher costs to consumers. It's still a supply side failure.

Should I turn this order in or tell the customer we can't get it and we can make more money?

No, just raise the price and tell them they'll have to wait a while before they get the product. moron

So WalMart and Target have not raised prices?

Our manufacturer's raised our prices at least 5% across the board in august, some more than that. We are getting notices of more in Jan 2022. We are not going to eat that. Plus, we still have long lead times and can't get things.

 

[Kate Branson]

Bottom line is now we have more equality. That was the goal. Mission accomplished. More people now have access to more mediocre stuff.

That's what it always was about. Mass equality, mass mediocrity. It's the NFL of economics. We've got it. Might as well go to Mason County and get some Family Dollar potato chips with it.

 

[raleighherdfan]

That's because you're a lying idiot.

Why would they do this in October? What a perfect time to NOT sell goods to the public during a holiday shopping period...right?

 

[raleighherdfan]

Are you saying that the companies mentioned couldn't have made a few phone calls to each other and came up with the same solution without being prompted by the president of the United States?

So now you're arguing against your initial point?

No, just raise the price and tell them they'll have to wait a while before they get the product.

We have no doubt that is what you probably did when you paid your manufacturing guys commission. How many of them work for you now?

 

[extragreen]

So WalMart and Target have not raised prices?

Did someone say that? Stupid oath breaking liar.

 

[extragreen]

Because the president asked them for commitments to do that. Phlegmwad.

 

[extragreen]

So now you're arguing against your initial point?

So, by asking that question you've admitted you understood my point, and you simply, and I mean simply, choose to ignore it like a good little simpleton.

That's all you have.

He conveniently avoids this question.

 

[i am herdman]

Has WalMart and Home Depot put their cashiers and stockers on commission? Hey boys and girls, you get paid by the number of boxes you stock on a shift. or better yet, if the store has a slow day you might not get paid.
