Federal Reserve 0.75% interest rate increase will do nothing.
Inflation is a lot higher than the phony CPI of 9.1%.
Inflation is well above 40%. The price of everything from
food to gasoline is constantly going up.
Price is no longer Stable.
Democrat politicians will economically destroy the USA.
Only if the repubs help them.
…and they will
Not counted in the bogus way they determine the inflation rate, is the fact that in many cases not only are we paying more but we are getting less in return. This is because things have been repackaged in smaller amounts but also holds true when considering what little return we get from government employees compared to how much they are paid.
Shrinkflation. Been a thing for decades….
Considering the harm they do when they actually DO something, I’m kinda glad they usually don’t do much.
Was it Will Rogers who said “Be glad you don’t get all the government you pay for.”
“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it. ” John 844
ya gotta start cleaning them out of your government, and take your money back, if you don,t
remove this parasite they will completely destroy the US
It is even more forcefully in a modern English translation:
You are of your father the devil,
and your will is to do your father’s desires.
He was a murderer from the beginning,
and has nothing to do with the truth,
because there is no truth in him.
When he lies,
he speaks out of his own character,
for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Maybe the Elites will like having us (the peons) in their swimming pools!
We’re going to need a bigger pool when it gets spicy. It’s no longer if, it’s when.
Spicy. I like that descriptive term. Spicy hot.
I would submit Printing Money causes all our problems. With a prudent Monetary Policy economic forces will regulate things and assign accountability to incompetent people. All that needs to happen for the system to constantly run smoothly is to peg the interest rate to the inflation rate.
Inflation is: – too many dollars chasing too few products because leaches on the government dole don’t add anything.
The Country’s heading into its second only era of economic Stagflation, a Democratic specialty. This is going to be rough but like all hardships in life it’s also going to be a blessing in disguise. It’s going to paralyze the Democrats ability to Print money and coopt countries, organizations, and people. We’re not a little banana republic – China’s not going to be able to come along and subsidize their operations.
See, you can’t Print your way out of stagflation, that’s the source of the problem. Biden thinks he can (and all the dumbass bureaucrats) but they can’t (gone to the well too many times). Like I said it’s going to be rough, he’s going to give us a Crash we can’t get out of utilizing Monetary Policy. Another President might be able to utilize some sort of Productivity oriented Work-Fare but mostly it’s going to have to work itself out naturally according to all the Laws of Economics.
That’s where he’s taking the democratic party, Oblivion. And as the consequences of this spill out over the Globe it’s tough to describe how despised Joe Biden and his democratic party are going to be.
Churchill use to warn the rest of the world not to pressure Socialism into the United States because the entire world had become dependent on American productive capacity and generosity. If we fall then there’s no-one to come to the rescue.
All of that fall-out will be blamed directly on the democratic party of America, as it should be for stealing the Election and being the vehicle used for this intrusion. Then they can take their rightful place alongside the other monstrous regime of the 21st century the Chinese communist party. (Who will fall even faster than us without American support).
There’s nothing more Inflationary and Ineffective than a massive “Intelligence Community.”
If we take Inflation as the result of non-productive enterprises (or receivers) which add to the Demand but they don’t add to the Supply of useable goods; things become much more expensive.
Ineffectually – throughout the History of Western Civilization espionage was rightly disparaged (that’s why spies don’t have the rights of citizens and can be sent to places like GITMO, or in war they’re not covered under the Geneva Convention) because it creates an ever compounding exercise in futility. It’s the undeniable reality of social contacts and a limitless objective combined with a strategic mission incorporating highly suspect anything-goes philosophies such as “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” or “using double agents” (how do we know they’re not triple agents?). All of it operating in the shadows. Thus everything is in place for the “Intelligence” culture to inevitably become very corrupt and pervasive.
Also there’s the whole ballooning phenomena of the 10’ fence – 11’ ladder, 11’ fence – 12’ ladder, and so on. The whole thing has always been considered utterly ridiculous. Basically you have your society creating spies and not goods and services.
There’s only one valid reason for modern espionage. That’s to detect First Strike Nuclear Capability (or any other weapon of First Strike Total Destruction). All the rest is a complete farse, but it does make for a really good (and extremely zealous) political constituency. It’s zealous because it can be. Our Rights were trampled in its creation so it leverages that against anything which threatens its preservation.
All this stuff flows down hill as predictably as water into a pond, or should I say swamp.
The society needs a certain amount of goods & services to stay in price equilibrium. If you add non-productive workers (and recipients) they’re not adding anything; you have the same amount of goods & services with more money demanding them (the goods and services have become scarce). Then when you compound this with the fact that their government job probably makes things more difficult to produce then you can start to see why things become much more expensive; I say start because in a massive society you’re going to have the snowballing effects of market psychology and momentum to contend with also. Plus synergistic effects like adding to the Money Supply.
I can’t imagine anything more Inflationary than a government using Monetary Policy to fight its own people tooth & nail.
As far as spying on us and their involvement in politics:
Of course they do, we make soft targets. They’re apprehensive to spy on other countries, other countries are full of the same assets. Also they need to be careful about the network, they’re all colleagues (like the international banking network). That’s part of the whole futility of Spy v. Spy and another of the many reasons why espionage was always looked down on until the Nuclear Age. There was only one valid reason for modern espionage. That was to detect First Strike Nuclear Capability.
Also, it’s impossible to have a large “Intelligence Community,” to many eyeballs and mouths. It’s more of a Public Relations Organization for the government. That explains them Leaking like a sieve. The whole thing’s ridiculous.
The NSA for instance was a pure 911 farce; since by far the most effective counter-terrorism measure that could have been implemented was to tighten immigration and travel visas, and not rely on foreign labor; that would be something concrete. Until you’ve done something concrete like that at the stratospheric level all the rest is nothing but a joke.
The Nuclear Age made war obsolete; leaving an unrealistic chance for First Strike Total Destruction – against Massive Retaliation and mutually assured destruction. In spite of that, it also left a manifestly critical obligation for vigilance off the battlefield because the stakes are so high. Unfortunately this has functioned as a green light for wimpy people to go nudging and pushing others through the amalgamation of the State.
The arrival of the Nuclear Age was the greatest break from the past the world has ever seen. It’s much more than a scientific revolution it spawned a cultural revolution too. Everything about it bends towards corruption. This is why people say that it made life breathlessly more complicated. We’re just starting to grapple with it because the theft of the Election has made the symptoms acute.
Well thought out and I agree some but was just reading about nuke weapon yields after the NY city PSA bit.
US and Russkies now have lower yield ‘ first strike ‘ type nukes to use.
It is said these make a limited strike no longer ” Un-thinkable “
Bravo!
Every tool mankind invents can be used for great good or great evil.
A stone can build a home and a hearth or it can bash the head in of someone you love.
Everything depends on what lives in the people’s minds and hearts. Nothing else is relevant.
I do kind of wonder whether Ukraine feels that war is obsolete, just thinkin. Good thoughts in general, though.
It would be funny , if it wasn’t so sad:
Thanks for posting, I laughed for two minutes!
At least they are laughing as the Titanic sinks!
Shrinkflation. Just wait until they change to metric.
Kilogram from pounds and litres to gallons. But you will feel so good.
Yeah, I got 4 liters for my $8 bucks, I used to only get a gallon …
BAM! ^^^
Years back when I got my very first pair of ” They Live ” sunglasses, I learned about The FED & inflation , the hidden tax.
I happened to see a re-run of ” Little House on The Prairie ” where Mama Ingles was complaining about coffee going UP to 12 cents a pound. ( They wrote it INTO THE SCRIPT , to make you think ” inflation ” has always been a normal thing. Show was set in 1800’s before the central bank.
This is what Mind-War looks like. Propaganda where you least expect it.
I don’t know if I should buy things (other than food) now or wait. The news told me demand is going down so prices will follow. But they are wrong/lie about everything all of the time. To make matters worse, our family income relies on non-essential spending. We are already back to everyone wanting to make trades rather than buy with cash. Ugh. We finally dug ourselves out of the Obama hole and now it’s back.
All these On Purpose Problems and Intentional Crises, but it all comes down to one simple thing: for some reason, the American electorate has decided to let the Left get away with The Big Steal. The criminal perpetrators of the Crime of the Century will never be prosecuted, the totalitarian evil will never be exposed, the rule of law (in this crucial case) will never be restored, and the most devastating attack on American soil, Nov3 2020, since 9/11 will never be avenged.
What on earth does the electorate expect is going to happen, after deciding to allow all that?
They placed their bets on the Anyone but Trump line and now we all lose as a result.
My question is will the so called moderate voices like furrow browed Tapper ever have the honesty to admit what they have done?
Yeah, Shufflin’ Joe’s handlers sure are doing a lot of damage with a pen and a phone
What do you suggest we do?
Did you witness how many Americans were terrified of the pandemic that wasn’t?
Do you think they are eager to die for their way of life as it slowly fades away?
People will get on social media and endlessly bellyache but most have no spirit to do much of anything to right and egregious wrong.
With all due regard, Halley, just exactly WHAT was the American electorate SUPPOSED to do about the theft of the election? The people who did try to do something are still rotting in DC prison cells 18 months after they supposedly (not in reality) committed a crime! They can’t even get bail, much less a trial.
The problem is that both parties were in on the BIG STEAL and consequently both parties agreed to have anyone who protested about it punished as harshly as the law would allow. EVERYBODY, except the majority of the American people, wanted Donald Trump gone.
Of course, what we have seen is that what the majority of the American people wants can be dismissed with impunity by our elected officials, who will do what they damned well please and dare the people to do something about it.
Inflation and the economy in general is way worse under Biden then Trump. Proof Biden and Democrats are clueless as to how to run things. Democrats and Biden have wrecked EVERYTHING they touch with not one exception. Babbling fools, incompetent and traitorous to the max. Prison time should be on their “to do” list!
We’re going to need a bigger pool.
It’s the Baby Ruth scene in Caddyshack! “Doody”!! Brandon can relate.
January 2020 gas in my area was $2.25 for PREMIUM! Now it’s $5.62 for regular. That’s a 225% increase in 2 years! People need to do the math!!!
In December 2020, I pumped gas in Texas for between $1.13/gallon and $1.50/gallon. Mind you, as a technical writer at a company that makes machines for the oil field, I usually drive around 2,280 miles per month. Therefore, I get a few “gold status” rewards from Shell.
Compared to today’s best gas price of $3.99/gallon, those old prices in my log book look like gold.
I want his house. Its only social justice. My kids have dibs on his bank accounts.
Haven’t heard much of any of this in any news:
all of this inflation is being created by government policies. supply chains are being deliberately sabotaged to inflate prices. see Gavin Newsome just sidelined 70,000 independent truckers. Food prices are going up while the government pays farmers to destroy crops and slaughter chickens; nearly 100 food processing plants destroyed in the past year.
the USD index is approaching record highs. we are at parity with the Euro. we could return to producing more coal/gas and energy prices would plummet.
without these government policies, things would be getting really inexpensive right now.
But, of course, Biden is doing everything he can to bring down inflation.
Never mind:
This make as much sense as Khiara Bridges’ attack on Senator Hawley over his not accepting that men could get pregnant.
