Bloomberg News published an article providing tips on how Americans can combat inflation, one being to allow pets to pass instead of paying for costly medical treatments.
QUICK FACTS:
- Bloomberg published an opinion piece last week, suggesting different ways people can lessen the impact of inflation on their income, Breitbart reported.
- One of the tips the article provided was allowing sick pets to die, rather than seeking treatment.
- “If you’re one of the many Americans who became a new pet owner during the pandemic, you might want to rethink those costly pet medical needs. It may sound harsh, but researchers actually don’t recommend pet chemotherapy — which can cost up to $10,000 — for ethical reasons,” the piece reads.
BLOOMBERG SUGGESTS CHANGING FOOD OPTIONS TO COMBAT INFLATION:
“Though your palate may not be used to it, tasty meat substitutes include vegetables.”
BACKGROUND:
- Additional tips Bloomberg suggested was considering taking public transportation rather to deal with rising gas prices, even going as far as saying Americans should sell their car.
- “It certainly isn’t the time to buy a new or used one. Prices have stabilized a bit, but used-car prices are still up more than 40% from a year ago, and new ones are up 12%,” the article states.
