You would be incorrect. I’m not a huge fan of 9% inflation, zero returns on 401k either. I drive a company car so gas prices don’t really bother me personally but I understand everyone else’s pain. 2 1 Link to comment

So Inflationary, it spread to Europe! 4 2 Link to comment

I’ve said before a few times now, higher inflation was going to occur at some point the moment the country locked down for Covid. The question to be answered after that is how to control it from doing what’s it doing now. 1 Link to comment

Pandora’s box has been opened and raising rates is the best answer at this point. Not getting to this point was the best option. So what is the Democrat President going to do to bring it under control? 1 1 Link to comment

Really, it’s about the only weapon they have. We agree that the lock downs are the biggest factor in the inflation (done under a Republican). Now that we are here, the best weapon against it is raising rates. Which that’s what Biden’s feds are doing. But, the biggest problem is that this inflation is a world wide problem. Lock downs were world wide and so is the inflation. So, a Republican wouldn’t be doing anything much different. Link to comment

What exactly should Biden be doing now to control inflation? What is within his direct control that he can or should’ve been doing? Items you don’t need to include; Stimulus spending that’s already occurred and blather about a pipeline and drilling more. Your points on oil have already been refuted numerous times yet you continue to offer them up. For extra credit you can explain how Trump would be managing inflation any better. 1 Link to comment

Good job bringing false posts into the argument though You criticized the American rescue plan as inflationary. Those are your words. That was approximately $2 Trillion. I assumed, because of who you vote for, that you believe the $4 trillion of stimulus under Trump was not inflationary. You are free to put that notion to rest, however, and prove my assumption wrong by saying that the stimulus under Trump - twice as large - was inflationary. 2 Link to comment
