The German government released their version of the producer price index for inflation, and they are reporting 30.9% inflation for products leaving German factories. [DETAILS HERE] That’s the highest rate of inflation since shortly after the second world war.
The inflation rate is being driven mostly by energy costs which are more than 80% higher than last year. However, each nation’s overall inflation rate is also driven by the amount of central bank spending they used during the COVID economic lockdowns. The more any govt spent on subsidies, the more money they printed, the more they devalued their money and subsequently, the higher their current rate of inflation.
Germany is the largest economy in the European Union. This level of inflation within Germany has major ramifications.
First, with this level of energy inflation Germany cannot afford to stop purchasing Russian energy products. There’s no way for Germany to join or increase western sanctions against oil and gas they need to stay sufficient. Germany is dependent on Russian energy.
Second, with Germany’s economy this vulnerable; and with Germany being so dependent on Russian energy; Germany will have to distance itself further from any Ukraine assistance. In the background of western voices already being upset with Germany for not providing more support for Ukraine, their economic vulnerability explains their unwillingness. The U.S. proxy war against Russia does not benefit Germany, at all.
Third, as a result of the first two points, Volodymyr Zelenskyy will be even more mad than he was yesterday. Additionally, the German position makes Biden more vulnerable because it forces the U.S. to take a bigger public footprint on the entire operation. This explains why the people in the background of the White House are saying Ron Klain needs to quickly extricate Biden from his unilateral focus on Ukraine.
If the White House doesn’t cut Zelenskyy loose soon, the anchor of fail Ukraine represents will further sink Biden. Sooner or later the White House, Administrative Deep State, Dept of State and Intelligence apparatus along with the total foreign policy establishment and all the politicians who benefit financially from their use of Ukraine, are going to have to give up.
With countries like Germany needing to back away, it becomes harder for the Biden administration to retain the false front around NATO as a justification for their intervention and money laundering operations.
Additionally, if the French election goes to Le Pen on Sunday, well, katybar the door – because it’s complete and total game over…. Ukraine will be cut loose and someone from the CIA will assassinate Zelenskyy on the way out, leaving a note on the nightstand that says, “Putin did it.”
GERMANY – German annual producer price inflation topped 30% in March, the country’s Federal Statistics Office said on Wednesday. That’s its highest level since the agency began collecting data 73 years ago.
The biggest culprit? Energy prices, which rose nearly 84% from the same month last year. “Mainly responsible for the high rise of energy prices were the strong price increases of natural gas… which was [up] 144.8% on March 2021,” the statistics office said in a statement.
It is one of first signs of the huge impact Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is having on the German economy, Europe’s biggest. Producer prices rose by nearly 5% between February and March alone.
Consumers should brace themselves. Factory gate inflation feeds into retail prices, and shoppers can expect to spend more on everything from furniture to meat, according to Wednesday’s figures.
German consumer price inflation is already at a 41-year high, hitting 7.3% last month. Energy prices were the main contributor, up almost 40% from the previous month. (read more)
If I recall correctly, President Trump warned Merchel this would happen with their energy/economy. My guess is She’s likely a double agent for Putin.
Yeah, I was thinking “Hmm seems like I remember somebody saying this would happen. Who could that have been…”
Angela Merkel is no double agent for Putin and is now somewhat retired I suppose. Kind of like Bernie Sanders she is just someone forever enamored with socialism like aging hippies who never ever got a clue because they never had to and actually made a great living spouting old Soviet claptrap long after it was proven useless in practice because it will never be useless as rhetoric to dimwitted and indoctrinated youngsters beginning to vote and some of them too may make it into old age never ever gaining a clue in their entire lives. Fools but, mostly honest fools like so many. Many of the people involved in the deep state effort to remove our liberty and impoverish us are the same. Occam’s razor my friend. Never attribute to malice that which is easily explained by stupidity.
These, the stupid, need to get on the King’s Highway:
Isaiah 35:8 (KJV) And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
i had to stop and breathe as i was reading. but great rant!
When Germany gets to the inflationary rates of the 1920s….then we are talking real hyperinflation.
/S
Germany in 1880 was unlivable. Research it…
My grandparents escaped Germany in 1882…to America.
Mine left in the 1850s. I think it was famine that brought them here.
I think this was meant to depict Germany 2022
Germans are paying the equivalent of $7.70 per US gallon today down from $9.18 a few weeks ago. https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/Germany/Frankfurt_am_Main/gasoline_prices/
I guess POTATUS releasing a million bpd from the SPR helped…someone…after all.
I see this as the Great Reset in action. Despite the stated purposes of saving the planet, protecting us from pandemics and establishing equity for all, and the appearance of Complete Idiots In Charge, the real intent is to install the Davos-anointed elites in control of everything in Europe, the US and the rest of the Five Eyes, install a new digital currency controlled by the Davos set of banks, while empowering BRICS to form its competing control system(s) and digital currency used throughout that part of the world, which will greatly disempower the US dollar. War or proxy wars between the two groups are to be constantly required, and on the brink of nuclear escalation, to justify totalitarianism and to feed the elite weapons contractors, foreign correspondents, and tech companies who serve their elite masters, who then have all the money, all the totalitarian leaders, all the technology, all the establishment press and media, and all the weapons under their control. Resistance will be dealt with as with Canadian truckers and January 6 protesters.
The Great Reset is deliberately falling heaviest on the US and Germany, the two strongest nations with the most to lose, and greatest ability to resist and lead resistance. Destroy our economies. Overrun our populations with poor immigrants with much higher birth rates. Shame us for our strengths.
you give them too much credit. this decade will see their power in the world reduced, in politics, in the military, in the banks, and in the media. very few of the current governments in the west will make it through their next election.
I hope your right Jeff. I read the post above from Doppler carefully and it lines up with a significant amount of my readings and experience over the decades.
I would be interested in reading greater detail supporting your position that political, military, banking and media power will wain by the next election.
Ron
Good question, Ron. I still watch the PBS NewsHour on Friday nights, and I see no acknowledgement of Hunter’s laptop, 2000 Mules, Biden’s decrepitude or corruption, the 50 former intelligence officers being other than American heroes, RFK Jr’s book, need for skepticism in reporting on the Ukraine War or Covid origins, Covid’s ugly children the mRNA vaccines, mask mandates, big tech censorship, nor embracing censorship and totalitarianism while calling MAGA “the end of Democracy.”
Jeff, if you’re the Davos elites, and you’re going to lose all the elections this year, do you crawl into your bed and assume the fetal position? Or do you double down on the Nuclear threat, switch out Biden for Harris, have her impose wage and price controls, ration food, accelerate the move to digital currency, arrest those who want more not less supervision of dropbox elections, and roll out plandemic number 2?
What in the nations’ responses to a US funded bioweapon attack, mask mandates, censorship, cancellation, election fraud denial, forced vaccination and forced denial of effective primary care along with forced lockdowns gives you hope that the powers that be will respond any differently to the next steps in the plan? How many regime change plans of our Deep State over the decades failed and how many succeeded?
Who does our Deep State work for and answer to today?
Will what replaces them be better or worse?
This is one of the type of things Germany is secretly doing in the US; declaring economic war on private citizens they don’t like. Infiltration, not invasion.

F8cking Germans…
the damage was done, the contradictions in those libs of tik tok mocked remains, the technique is duplicable, the woman who doxxed her was crying on television recently about the same thing being done to her. she is a laughingstock.
no, the days of unchallenged mockingbird media are receding into the past. such as libs of tic toc will rise again and make their independence and liberty known by once again speaking truth to power.
look how saudi arabia mocks biden and harris. they are not afraid. but they once were.
The Germans have been going down the wrong road for quite some time, ever since they started integrating politicians from east Germany into their government.
no sympathy…they suicided themselves with their no nuke green bs..now the be on Russia’s leash.
It will be important for the Germans to be humiliated – the hochdeutsch are very arrogant.
As for France, Le Pen will bring von der Leyen to her knees – that will be interesting to watch.
I’m old enough to remember when e-mails could only be sent from company to same company. I was with FEDEX at the time when e-mail was first introduced as an internal only communication method in the nineties. I remeber later on when one could e-mail to friends but only if they were on a like platform like AOL or YAHOO. Then I remember reading how a central clearing house allowing inter-platofrm e-mails to work was going to be built very near the CIA HQ in Langley VA and thinking that was just too much of a coincidence. Looks like I was right.
i hope they are reading this. i wrote many letters to the new york times, among others. none was ever published.
this way i’ve got the audience i want. as dylan said, let them know “i see through your mask.”
The DOD / Federal Labs ‘invented’ the internet – why would they not control it?
A very logical synopsis. Assuming these people are logical/sane. That’s the burning question. I have a smartass side to me but I promise it has not encouraged this statement. I really don’t know and that is unsettling.
The reality of our own inflation is very close to that. I’m just going on increased costs for day to day living here in the States.
Weimar all over again…What could go wrong?
not owning precious metals and their equities.
Just the great reset in action, nothing to see here.
Move along folks!
“The biggest culprit? Energy prices, which rose nearly 84% from the same month last year.”
Peter Doocy needs to ask Peppermint Patty whether, if Germany is still getting their energy from Putin, it’s Putin’s fault for such massive inflation in Germany like it is in the US.
“You arrogant ass, you’ve killed us!!”
Great film. The Hunt for Red October.
that expression on putin’s face says it all: you asked for it, you got it.
in the years to come we will realize how great a debt of gratitude we owe him, even considering the impoverishment the breaking of the illusion brought.

but, but, but…they’re the most green energy solar paneled country in the EU!! Like a ping pong ball of bad policy bouncing between China and Russia on a fading green string.
Hey hey hey! Calm down! The Biden Administration will soon, again, have us all wearing [worthless] pieces of paper over your faces while we fly, and everything will be alright! They are on it! We are in good hands! You just wait and see! Nothing to see over THERE!
The return of Weimar Germany may be in the cards.
The political situation in Germany is on the edge. Only Scholz and his party are cautious, his partners, the greens and the liberal party and the opposition convervative CDU ar pro-escalation and there is even talk of getting rid of Scholz: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/deutschland/friedrich-merz-versus-kanzler-olaf-scholz-wagt-die-union-das-projekt-kanzler-sturz-a-8782cd1b-9b16-4d1a-89e4-6f37065fc8fd
Anyone believe that this rate of inflation more closely mirrors that in the USA? They have manipulated the inflation calculation so much in the last decade or so to the point where it doesn’t reflect reality. From my understanding, here in the USA the inflation calculation does not include the food or energy sector. How ridiculous is that?
Astute post as usual SD. Only quibble is the idea of the DC swamp rats giving up. They’re not giving up, they are doubling down. They will force a collapse wherein they hope to impose a full on police state based on Emergency Powers. And then keep the emergencies coming until the People stop struggling.
Found in the bin…. 🙁
The NAZIS are back in charge of Germany again. Germany gave us Karl Marx, two world wars and now a communist EU state that continues to ‘F” everything up. They are a danger to the world as much as China and Russia. Maybe more so. Afterall, Marx gave us Stalin and MAO and two huge COMMUNIST countries. Way to go Germany…
Sundance, US cannot allow Putin/Russia success in getting away from dollar currency. Particularly after it was devalued so much during pandemic. US will keep supporting Ukraine any way possible to further isolate Russia/Putin.
This hasn’t been about Ukraine for quite some time.
How I wish Le Pen would win, even if she is hardly a conservative…but the fix is in there.
Still, this development is startling. Sundance is right on…if Germany rejects the cabal push for the expected EU embargo on Russian oil, it is a direct blow to the kneecap. If the embargo collapses, it removes one key plank of the planned great reset they want this year. Yes, THIS YEAR.
The BBB-Reset opportunity for the evil demons is now. They won’t have the Congressional support after mid-terms, even with the equally evil RINO stench mob still around.
BTW, may the putrid turtle PLEASE experience one of three things?
A – a giant dump of evidence including photos and video showing his blatant pay for play schemes, Chinese kompromat and traitorous actions.
B – the sudden passing from natural causes
C – BOTH
Hmmm …. Didn’t some guy named Schickelgruber start a nationalist political party – and then a war – when Germany’s economy tanked in the 1930s?
