    Some of those 23% are profiting greatly from this disaster; however, your statement still holds true.

      Honestly, barely.

      I would bet significantly less than 1% of that 23% are better off in 2026 than they were in 2024-2025

        The other people - probably about 22.99% - probably consider themselves just temporarily embarrassed centimillionaires.

      profiting or not, thinking that costs haven’t increased is either sheer stupidity or willful ignorance. Costs have increased, that’s a fact. Doesn’t matter if you’re still profiting from it, things cost more.
