  1. They can't fix it nor kick the can past November. So Bidenomics right now comprises of making sure Trump can't run. If they raise rates people's 401ks/retirement will shrink. So they have no choice other than smear campaigns. They are however using your tax dollars to attempt to buy votes with more loan forgiveness for students and housing.

  2. Trump started inflationary measures, Biden escalated it. Choose neither. Will continue to print money for war. Food banks cannot manage and interest rates making people homeless. Obsolete economics.

  3. God bless the 👑 King and God bless the 👑 queen ❤🎉 of the United States of America God bless the trump family and God bless the American peoples and God bless my peoples black 🖤🐈‍⬛ Americans citizens vote Red ♥️🍒 for 👑 King President Donald j Trump to save America

  6. INFLATION IS A WORLDWIDE PROBLEM, NOT A STRICTLY NORTH AMERICAN PHENOMENA. BUT POLITICIANS AROUND THE WORLD ARE USING IT AS A STRATEGY TO ATTACK A SITTING GOVERNMENT. Two years after the onset of the pandemic, inflation has become one of the main concerns for the global economy. We have record price rises in Europe and the United States which could be addressed with monetary policy measures. When we take a detailed look at the drivers of inflation in the various regions, there are clear signs of the presence of so-called "SUPPLY INFLATION", stemming from increases in energy prices and bottlenecks in global supply chains, largely related to the ceasing of activities during periods of lockdown in many countries and, subsequently, the recovery of the economy. NO GOVERNMENT CAN SOLVE THE PROBLEM. The most challenging aspect of supply inflation is that its "cure" is not very straightforward. In the event of demand inflation it is necessary to cool economic activity through monetary policy by raising interest rates. Supply inflation, on the other hand, presents a dilemma that tends to leave those responsible for economic policy in a real quandary: if they take measures to rein in aggregate demand and tackle inflation, they could put the economy at risk of going into RECESSION – and in this instance the risk would be of weakening the global economy. To complicate matters further, if it continues over time, wages adjusted to inflation are passed on to final prices.
