Shivdeep Dhaliwal - Yesterday - Benzinga
Edward Snowden quipped that “we’re all going to be billionaires,” while commenting on record inflation numbers made public the same day.
The former intelligence consultant said in a tweet that while people would turn into billionaires, a gallon of milk would cost $2.6 trillion as a result of steep price increases.
In a separate tweet, Snowden shared a Wall Street Journal headline that read “U.S. Inflation Hits Four-Decade High of 9.1%” and said he was trying to imagine the mindset of a kid graduating high school this year and realizing “they're about to step into the world with the difficulty slider locked on Nightmare Mode.”
The Labor Department reported an 8.3% year-over-year increase in the Consumer Price Index for August, which came in above average economist estimates of 8%.
