It has been over a month since inflation in the United States has become hot news with consumer prices rocketing. In the last four decades, this is the first time the prices are hitting a record high. In the last 12 months, the consumer price index touched a whopping 7.5 percent. The last time the United States saw such a spike was in February 1982. In comparison to December, the prices rose by 0.6 percent which is way more than what the analysts expected. With inflation looming in the year, netizens took out their usual coping mechanism, and quite naturally Twitter has been flooded with memes and jokes. After all, we are at a point where we accept memes as the natural reaction to any news, good or bad. Well, what better way to wade away nervousness than a hilarious set of memes.

And it seems like inflation has led a good majority of netizens to perfect the perfect meme recipe. Let us flip through a couple of memes and jokes on Twitter that started doing their rounds ever since inflation hit the United States. Read along.

Time for some nostalgia.

Looks like not everyone is in the mood to reminiscise old times.

Cute. Who cares. Be more interesting if you offered some ideas for dealing with inflation. For example, as governor of New York State, what would you do to fix inflation? Also, what would you do to end the SALT tax rip off that sends our earned tax dollars to red states?

Fed needs to raise rates and sell USTs to fight inflation, but higher rates will force the Fed to buy more USTs to finance US “True Interest Expense” & Defense spending (which are an unprecedented ~130% of tax receipts, & that % will grow rapidly as rates rise.) pic.twitter.com/gKJ4bvs6g6

In an attempt to pacify people, Biden assured that the “forecasters continue to project inflation easing substantially by the end of 2022.” Although he did acknowledge the current situation where the inflation has gone up.

The U.S President also added that, “And fortunately, we saw positive real wage growth last month, and moderation in auto prices, which have made up about a quarter of headline inflation over the last year.”
