🚨 **UNPOPULAR OPINION, but someone has to say it:** 🚨
Can we PLEASE stop acting like Sharyn Alfonsi is some kind of hard-hitting hero? She’s a professional gaslighter in a blazer. I watched the *60 Minutes* piece last night and my jaw was on the floor. She sits there all week, interviewing people about the cost of milk and the housing crisis, then looks the average American square in the eye and asks, with a straight face, "But does the *feeling* of inflation really matter?" COMMON SENSE says that when my eggs cost $8, the "vibe" is irrelevant. My wallet isn’t confused, Sharyn. You are.
We have potholes the size of swimming pools on Maple Drive, the library just cut hours, and our local deli closed because the rent tripled. But sure, let’s send a network correspondent to a luxury studio to debate whether our own lived experience is "valid." Common sense tells me that if you can afford a haircut that costs more than my weekly grocery budget, you've lost the plot.
Stop giving these high-priced journalists a platform to explain my own pantry back to me as if it’s a mystery. The price of bread is not a debate topic. It’s a receipt.
