Comment on Don't be a coward
calcopiritus@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoFunny how that only works one way. It’s never “they are gonna tax me anyway, so I’ll pay double the taxes”.
If you are not fine with paying more than you should, why are you fine for prices increasing more than they should?

Ask your politicians

I don’t understand how asking that question to “my politicians” would achieve anything.
“My politicians” are not arguing that prices increasing by a bit makes it okay for prices to increase by a lot. I’d argue that most of them would say that a little bit of inflation is good for the economy while hyperinflation is bad. Which I interpret as them knowing that “a little” is not the same as “a lot”. Which the above commenter doesn’t seem to know. Or at least knows only when it is convenient. Schrodinger’s knowledge perhaps.
