We are living through a cost of living crisis, with interest rate
hikes and the prices of everyday consumables and energy bills
sky-rocketing. Why is this happening? Sometimes we are told that
wages are too high, or that the government has "printed" too much
money or that events far away, such as the war in Ukraine, are
solely to blame. The plain argument that high prices go together
with high profits, falling wages, and weak production is often
distorted and hidden by mainstream commentary in the media and
elsewhere. This plain-speaking pamphlet tells it straight: the big
businesses dominating production and distribution make huge profits
out of high inflation, while working people lose out. It sets out
factual evidence to illustrate that the source of record profits is
the fall in real wages as inflation rises. A large part of the
income of working people is being transferred directly into the
profits of big business. The pamphlet shows that the deeper roots
of the "cost of living crisis" lie in the very low investment and
poor productivity growth for many years. The basic steps to
resolving the crisis are simple: prices, especially of essentials,
must be brought down, and wages, salaries, benefits, and pensions
must be increased.
