    The USA inflation infex does not include food or energy prices

    They will try to limit prices but no way they can keep prices stable at the pump. Especially with Milei who seems to let companies charge whatever they want. This war will probably end Milei's term as well as Trump's. Gas prices in the US are going up and will keep going up. Here in BA I see...

    I haven't talked to one person that says they have it better now vs. before. I understand that change will take time but I just don't think people will wait. Some areas even the police are joining crowded and I am told this is how it was before with protests. This is in Jujuy.
