    You need to improve your reading comprehension. I never said any of these things.

    Obviously energy prices can have an impact on food prices, in fact they do a lot with conventional agricultures dependence on fertilizers made from natural gas.

      While we’re discussing reading comprehension, I actually made an argument as to why the poor are especially, universally, affected more by inflation.

      You can’t just counter the conclusion without countering the argument. How is what I described not something that’s always operating anywhere inflation is happening?

        Because you failed to understand my argument. I did address your concern above.

            No, my argument is that people with savings are effected more by inflation specifically, but of course due to low coping capacity poor people are more effected by any negative economic situation. However if you have no savings, but a relatively stable inflation adjusted income, then inflation does not effect you much.
