As Americans said on Adam conover podcast
There are 2 inflation. One the Govt tells and media reports. The other people face everyday.
Cars are beyond buying power
Even a bowl of soup costs 1200 RS from a restaurant (not a shop)
Chicken is 500rs per kilo
Bread is 200rs plus
Taxes are high
Fees for schools is record high
