Where’s the evidence of this totally neutralized inflation? Everytime he speaks about things of this nature he shows how far divorced he is with the reality.
The average person doesn't understand inflation, it's impact on prices, or how it changes over time...let alone what changes it.

Until they do, politicians get to spit rhetoric and the masses will believe or refute the statement but only because their political party alignments tell them to do so...the blame is on "we the people". Yeah, we could HOPE that elected officials would walk a higher road, but obviously that isn't the case.

Hang on a minute ! You’re telling me as a bona fide citizen of the US ( or any country for that matter ) we don’t want “ deflation “ .

Is deflation = lower prices?

Are we the populace supposed to be so indoctrinated into the propaganda, to naively follow the narrative that deflation is “ Bad “

Maybe let’s look at that narrative and extrapolate that towards the beneficiaries of inflation !

Thank goodness for China and its manufacturing capacity, otherwise you and I would be screwed to the extremes by these greedy , self serving Corporations who seek to enhance their bottom line by every means possible .

Lobbyists, politicians and Corporations are but one entity , truth be known .

I mean sure, I am in this boat you mention. The big issue is if we had deflation (not having inflation) tanks the economy for the top people, and that eventually tanks things even worse for everyone else. It is like this: some people benefit via additive (think normal labor), some people multiply (workers with stock options say), and some exponential, the very top of it. If you destroy the very top the bottom also does not work basically. And sure that might suck, but what's the old quote?: "It is what it is"?

Again I do not like it one bit... don't get me wrong. But the thesis seems to be the top people are intelligent and creative enough that they have it so that the economy works for all when it works for them, and if thinngs start to not work for them (deflation), think they have it set so things don't advance - think people are smart enough. Again don't agree with this.. but think this is what it is.

What I’m understanding when it comes to human nature is the lack of empathy. I truly won’t say anything about something until it affects me.

It’s why politicians can get away with so much if you only care about your side and make sure you appease them you can get away with murder.

I don't mind Marilyn's cover of this Eurythmics song. Hard to beat Annie's original tho...

I guess he just tells people what they want to hear, and fuck learning about what they hear they just go look at the price of one egg or one gallon of gas and make a educated conclusion

WTH does Trump know about inflation? He doesn't pay for Anything. He gets Stupid people to pay for everything he wants or thinks he needs. His super-sized McDonald's meals are brought to him on a gilded platter, free. So of course inflation is just a nonsensical concept for him. Nothing to see, here. But he's NOT an elite. No, don't think he is for one moment. MAGA told us so. Hassett, the next know-nothing spineless lapdog in waiting, is at the ready to force the Fed Governors to drop the interest rate by a half-percentage point per month until the cows come home. Stagflation, here we Come.
