Who would have thought. With all the people collecting "free money" and non-stop printing.

We just drove from Houston to San Antoni. Gas prices in most places above 3.50. Thank you brandon!!!


I'll be driving from San Diego to San Antone Late September or early October.

My evacuation date range is pretty much set in stone at this point.

I wonder if truckers will still be available to help me with my move.

Let me know when you move. We bought property half way between Houston and SA, and are in process of fixing house. You are welcome to drop by and we can shoot some guns.

Let’s contemplate, to coin a phrase, a basket of deplorables. US inflation just hit 7.5 percent, the highest in forty years. EU inflation is 5.1 percent. UK inflation, now 5.5 per cent and the highest in thirty years, is expected to reach 7 percent by spring. All these indices are headed in one direction. Inflation is often described as a tax, but I have a better word for it: stealing.

Factcheck: Inflation is only caused by Russians and Russian-Symp Supermarkets and Gas Stations. Milton Friedman's remarks about Inflation having solely a Monetary Policy Cause are Putin Disinformation.

"Everywhere inflation is a monetary phenomenon (caused by the controller of the currency - here, the US federal reserve - printing money disproportionally to growth)" is DEBOONKED!

Inflation sucks, so how can you cope with it?

Make more money of course.

How do you get higher pay when the slave masters want to replace you with foreign scabs from places like India, China, etc.?

You can’t; you’re fucked.

Everyone understands that foreigners coming in here don’t improve their lives one bit, but almost nobody except Trump said anything about it.

I feel sorry for guys working now.

One could live cheap, rent a shitty apartment for a few hundred bucks. Even in North NJ, always a top 10 expensive area to live, 25 years ago. Immigration has destroyed that option for native born Americans; the places are all Section 8 getting guaranteed high rent government checks now for illegals and their brood.

High inflation is great for those with high debt against hard assets, like real estate. A millijon Dollar mortgage will soon be peanuts, just sell your rusty old clunker to pay off your mortgage, lol, haha.

High inflation is exactly what this overindebted nation needs.

Sorry my submit button was stuck, I’ll have to spray some WD40 on it…

Neither inflation nor high interest rates nor high energy costs are good.

I'm luckily past worrying about them much however.

Might not be good for you, but for every loser, there is a winner on the other end.

For example, high interest rates are good for private lenders. High inflation is good for some indebted folks as long as their income has at least the same amount of inflation. High energy prices is good for some in the energy sector.

You can say that again

Last year the inflation was 10%.
This year it will be 15% thanks to unrelenting supply issues and much higher fuel prices.
Expect 20% inflation for next year.

That’s 45% inflation in three years. 45 is also the number of the POTUS we need back to fix this mess Brandon created.

I knew that hyperinflation was lurking around the corner when the Federal Government said:

1.) you don’t need to pay that much tax anymore
2.) you don’t need to pay rent anymore
3.) you can pause your mortgage for a couple of years
4.) you get more money being unemployed than working
5.) we’re mailing large stimulus checks with my signature on it to all citizens

All the sudden a huge amount of excessive spending money for everyone, yeah!!!

Last time we had anything like normal (and the very low side of normal) was 2008. Been hyperstimulatory for 13 years.

And all of that was pre-Bidenflation.

@patrick
The low inflation items are just manufactured in China.
If you take China out, Those would just skyrocket in prices.
