Democrat is another name for inflation

Very well said.
The rock and the hard place is if they continue to raise rates to fix inflation not to mention keep shelling out billions to foreign soil, they will completely destroy the housing, job and stock market. Major job losses will be a result of an aggressive uptick in interest rates and corporate debt positions will become huge burdens on cash flow resulting in massive layoffs (see Carvana as the first of many). The stock market can't price the risk in so long strategy investors will continue to move to cash creating sell-off pressure. While the market was operating well above reality on a market cap/PE ratio, the reality is the changes are too sudden to avoid panic and disruption. If you had plans to retire in the next few years, you just extended that target date.
If the unemployment rate creeps back up to 5%, the fed will have no choice but to alter course......bring rates lower and reinstate QE. Lots of other things start to break once unemployment goes bonkers, especially with current CPI.
The harsh reality is that inflation is actually worse than the advertised 8.5% and for political purposes, they chose to sit on their hands and tell everyone it was all ok. Huge mistake
Sweden's inflation rate was 2.9% this year.....up 0.8% from their YoY average.
Lots of factors in ours but most of them are related to policy not global economics proven by the above.
The Fed has been awful. They have been so slow to recognize what's going on. A lot of that is because many of these people seem to have been captivated by modern monetary theory which is just horrible. The whole idea of more spending being good for inflation is pure insanity. What truly sucks in all this is that had we approached this correctly, we could be burying China in so many ways right now. Instead we're circling the drain in a way we shouldn't be.
Let's be fair though. Before Covid, we were spending recklessly. He was not good for our country in many areas and that is one of them. You don't run massive deficits when it's high tide economically. It's wrong when Democrats do it and it's wrong (even worse imo) when Republicans do it. The Fed has been in a terrible position since the great recession and they've never been able to get their feet back under them because people want to be coddled and that's not how it works. We have a lot of medicine to take in this country and we need leadership that can encourage the country to welcome that so we can get to a much better fiscal situation.
This explains what has broken the economy. The march 21 payment wasn't remotely necessary as retail spending had returned to pre-pandemic normals and this constant effort to spend more has over heated the economy. He basically says it for what it is, the last two payments were solely for votes. We were 15% ahead of trend before we stuck more money into the economy.
Good, so we finally agree on something. Both republicans and democrats are responsible for the current inflation we are experiencing.

so we want to raise taxes on corps to fight inflation......ha.....this guy is either surrounded by morons or is a moron, or both. Corps will just raise prices to keep margins at stable numbers.
They need to raise taxes so Nancy can give the house a free Peloton membership and build a liquor store on the house floor......

Taxpayers Pony Up To Give All House Staff Peloton Memberships
The House of Representatives is set to announce it will provide taxpayer-funded monthly Peloton memberships to all of its staff, Fox Business reported on Friday. The contract comes just over one year after the fitness company set up a lobbying shop in Washington.

You probably should watch the video again. It was always both sides but philosophically, it's pretty clear where much of the stupid is.
What do you think following up the Biden bucks with Joe’s multi trillion dollar entitlement expansion bill would have done? Good or bad for inflation?
Thanks God for Joe Manchin.
I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say that dems are both afraid of pure capitalism(so are most Rs) and also think they are smart enough to centralize plan. CP always misallocates resources. So, you have to prescribe more and more medicine for the side effects of the previous medicine. It's really a beautiful ponzi....create said problem then ride in on your white horse to save the day.
Clearly. This was Regan's inflation rate during his first year of his presidency. Clearly, his policies were to blame!
| 1981 | 11.8 | 11.4 | 10.5 | 10.0 | 9.8 | 9.6 | 10.8 | 10.8 | 11.0 | 10.1 | 9.6 | 8.9 | 10.3 |

From February to March 2021, we saw inflation rate almost double. Given that you guys think Biden is a vegetable with dementia, you have to admit it was pretty impressive that he got so many policies in place in one month to affect the economy so significantly. Amazing!
Ahhhhhhh. So now legislation that never passed is now to blame for inflation. That makes sense.
This reminds me of earlier in the year when @PawsFan_ was blaming Pelosi for his taxes being higher this year.
For all you poors on here that cashed your stimulus checks and are now on here complaining about inflation... your boy Trump was the one signing the checks for 2 out of the three rounds.

I didn’t say that. I’m pointing out that Biden and the dems would have further exacerbated inflation with more government spending if they had their way. Thank goodness wiser heads prevailed and there was at least one rational member of your party to stop that nonsense.
The first stimulus might have been needed as the the economy was in free fall. Everything after that was unnecessary, and the further away from the onset of the pandemic, the worse the policy decision was. In other words, Biden’s checks were far worse policy than the initial stimulus when the country was reeling. And to further highlight my logic, rationalism and impartiality, Trump’s call to raise the 2nd payment from $600 to $2000 was absolutely awful policy.
And as you know, I received none of the checks. So again, I am impartial and speak from a place of pure logic and reason. These are just the facts.

Remind me. Which branch of the Federal government has the ability to procure and spend money? Hint: It's not the Executive Branch.
Was anyone not allowed to take a stimulus check? I wasn't given an option.
And yup. I was wrong. Pelosi didn't cause my tax increase. Biden did by advancing me my child tax credit I didn't ask for or need. It knocked me up a tax bracket. First time in 33 years I've had to write the government a check.
But hey, continue your focus on Trump.
That’s how the argument always goes when you have nothing relevant. Only liberals do shit like this.
Biden only increased the child tax credit by $1000 in 2021. So you are complaining about having to pay higher taxes on that additional $1000. Yikes.
And I would not know about the stimulus check, I did not get the two that Trump sent out or the one that Biden did.
Hmmmmm..... Is democrat another name for crime jakey? Let's look at the top 20 states with the highest crime index. I am going red vs blue based on who controls the state legislature. 14 RED. 6 BLUE. I am no mathematician, but it appears that 70% of the highest crime states in our fine union are controlled by republicans. REPUBLICAN is another name for CRIME.

I love the Republican narrative that Democrat run cities have higher crime rates. The two most populous Republican run cities also have higher than average crime rates for their state and nationally - Jacksonville and Fort Worth.
Yep, just more BS that they can repeat again and again and the MAGidiots will accept it as gospel, without question.
Like when they say that California is a shithole and terrible place to live.
I think you meant Mega Maga Idiots......
Yeah, I mean.....

California is very expensive, so it makes sense that a lot of poors would leave there and move to the south or new jersey, where they can live like kings and buy up all the property.
"a lot of poors" ......what a douchebag
says the king of name calling. You can't get out of your own way which is highly entertaining... Mr. He, she, it... 63%.
I am flattered that you follow my posts so closely. I don’t even know who you are.
It’s not difficult. There are only only a handful of you that make ridiculous posts. Keep being you.
If you use the link you provided, you can compare crime in cities. Why don't you try comparing Jacksonville and Fort worth to places like, chicago and phily and see what you find? Also see the link below for the cities highest in violent crime. It only lists the top three, but SUPRISE(not), they are all democrat.

Data and stats are funny things. I think you will find that most of the crime in those "red" states come from large democrat controlled cities. In ohio, for example, I think the top 10 largest cities are dem run. I wager a large portion of the crimes are committed in those cities. I suspect you will find that carries through to most large cities in red states.
So to answer your question, yes democrat is another name for crime. Man, this is to easy yorkie.
Yes Jimmy Carter was a good person
He just sucked at President
the present power in the White House preach hate. , crime is good, division and list the worse of human nature and they are on board
America will survive and be stronger but end the Woke Agenda as it is destroying good
My point wasn't to compare Jacksonville/Fort Worth to much larger cities - it was to point out that even in the most populous cities run by Republicans, the crime rates are higher than the state and national averages.If you use the link you provided, you can compare crime in cities.

It's no secret that larger cities are more likely to vote Democratic since they have more diverse populations but maybe, just maybe, the point can be made that larger cities all have high crime rates, regardless of who the mayor is...
