珍妮特,你还不感到震惊吗?

美国财政部长珍妮特·耶伦在本周早些时候回答有关通货膨胀和食品价格上涨的问题后,周六被发现囤积食品杂货。

77岁的耶伦和她的丈夫,经济学家乔治·阿克洛夫,在日本餐厅Raku吃完午饭后,在华盛顿特区的一家巨型食品店停下来。

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen was spotted shopping at a Washington, DC grocery store with her husband on June 29, 2024. 10 Yellen and George Akerlof stocked up at a Giant Food store. 10 The couple were also joined by Yellen's security detail. 10

这对百万富翁夫妇有六名保安陪同,但在备货后,他们自己推着装满可重复使用的Fresh Direct购物袋的购物车走出了商店。

耶伦身价约为2000万美元,本周她似乎对美国食品价格上涨的担忧不屑一顾,招致了批评。

Yellen's grocery trip comes after she dismissed a question a<em></em>bout inflation and rising food prices earlier this week. 10 Yellen told Yahoo Finance that she goes grocery shopping every week. 10 Yellen and Akerlof pushed their own carts full of groceries. 10 Yellen denied havin<em></em>g "sticker shock" at the store. 10

“你最近去过杂货店吗?”雅虎财经的Jennifer Schonberger在周一的采访中问道。

耶伦回答说:“我当然去过,我每周都去。”

“这是价签震惊,不是吗?”当你看到运输成本下降的时候,全球食品价格也下降了,但是食品价格仍然很高。美国是否应该投资农业以增加本国的粮食供应?”勋伯格问道。

然而,舍恩伯格还没问完,耶伦就开始说“不”了。

Yellen and her husband also stopped for lunched at the restaurant Raku. 10 Yellen claimed that rising prices reflect costs increases and labor costs increases that grocery stores have had to deal with. 10 Yellen and Akerlof leaving the restaurant. 10

耶伦解释道:“我认为这在很大程度上反映了成本的增加,包括食品杂货公司所经历的劳动力成本的增加,尽管利润率可能会有所增加。”她还补充说,她会见了几家食品杂货公司的首席执行官,他们表示正在削减面包和牛奶等必需品的成本。

她说:“我认为这是值得称赞的,我认为这类事情是有帮助的,但是我不愿意同意我们应该集中农业。”
