Back to school inflation crushing parents
July 25, 2022
The Detroit News reports parents are being forced to get “creative to send their kids back to school with new supplies amid record-high inflation.”
A recent study from Deloitte found inflation is driving spending per student up by as much as 8% this year.
And NPR reports inflation “is crippling rural America… this year alone, expenses for rural Americans had increased by 9.2%, but their earnings only increased by 2.6%.”
