It’s no secret that prices are up everywhere, for aImost everything. Since taking office, Joe Biden has crashed the economy in such stunning fashion that things that were considered cheap, Iike fast food just a few years ago are now an expensive luxury. Gas, home heating costs, rent, groceries, and seemingly every aspect of everyday American life are more expensive under Biden than Trump.
The reasons vary, but the main culprit for higher prices is infIation driven by outrageous fuel prices. The fuel prices force trucking companies to charge more to deliver goods, and the retailers have no choice but to mark up their wares to stay profitable.
Biden may bIame Putin, climate change, Donald Trump, greedy corporations, and millionaires not paying their fair share, but any American who has a job and family and pays their own bills knows that everything is insaneIy expensive under Joe Biden and the Democrats.
Recently, it was noted that a once linchpin of American service, quaIity, and value in the food service industry suddenly isn’t such a great value anymore. Many working families count on fast food and quick service joints for a family meal and perhaps an inexpensive night out for the kids. While that used to be the case, under Joe Biden it sadly is a thing of the past.
One of the most beloved chains in the business, Chick-fil-A, has raised its prices by a shocking 21% in the Iast two years as the chain struggles to stay even with inflation.
Why Your Siblings Are Good for Your Health
One day, siblings are awesome — and the next, they’re a real nightmare. They can be so unpredictable, yet we love them all the same. We call each other names, but if someone does that to our sibling, we’re up in arms. As surprising as it sounds, siblings can actually improve your health. So you may want to think twice before you tell your sibling to leave you alone.
Bright Side encourages you to grab your sibling and take a moment to appreciate each other.
They boost your immune system.
Healthy sibling relationships increase your ability to fight off viruses, even without symptoms. Stress hormones, catecholamines, and glucocorticoids, in particular, have a negative impact on your immune system when you’re sick. The higher your stress levels are, the worse you feel. Luckily, if you have strong social bonds with your siblings or friends, you can control your stress levels, which can help you get over an illness much faster.
Hugging your loved ones can prevent heart disease.
You can keep your blood pressure under control by hugging regularly. If you are worried sick about something, instead of taking some medicine, hug your sibling. Such practices lower blood pressure and heart rate. Even 20 seconds of hugging your loved one can help you avoid heart attacks or pain.
They help you cope with depression.
We often turn to our parents for help when we run into a brick wall in our lives. However, your sibling offers you something that your parents can’t. You open up more to your siblings, find possible solutions together, and the overall feeling of being cared for cheers you up. Your cortisol levels reduce when you have someone to talk to. Additionally, they protect you from stress when you’re a kid.
They prolong your life.
People with poor social connections are 50% more likely to die earlier than people who have tight bonds. This could be because your nearest and dearest encourage you to care about yourself. This becomes especially noticeable when you fall ill. Your siblings make a casserole for you, rub ointment on your back, and demand that you don’t die because they need you.
