MILTON FRIEDMAN ISN’T RUNNING THE SHOW ANYMORE[/b]: GOP Congressman Thomas Massie Just Perfectly Explained WHY Inflation is Surging.
New inflation numbers out this morning show that prices continue to surge at the highest level in decades. And GOP Congressman Thomas Massie just perfectly explained the main reason this is happening.
First, the facts. The new Consumer Price Index out this morning shows prices rose 7.9% from February 2021 to February 2022.
That’s the biggest increase recorded since 1982! In another reminder of why inflation is such a painful stealth tax on Americans, the biggest price increases came in essentials like gas, food, and shelter.
Cue the blame game.
But you can safely ignore the Left’s cries of “corporate greed” as the culprit for the ongoing surge in prices. Economists across the political spectrum reject this economically illiterate explanation out of hand. So what’s really going on?
Well, Massie put it concisely in a tweet this morning:

Most people don’t even know what inflation is. This tweet probably won’t change that.

It’s amazing that the left never stops yammering about how much they care about the poor, then when their policies crush the poor they just make jokes and point fingers. To Herr Dazzler it’s a real knee slapper.

Like Kobe they all talk a good game about how they care about the working class. Kobe thinks you do that by raising the minimum wage and providing people with "free" college. But they all fully support an open border policy that depresses wages, and decreases the quality of the schools and the healthcare system that working class people are forced to use.

My leftist friends think the poor should just be happy they aren’t getting blown to bits.
I’m waiting for a meme about trans dudes fight to participate in womens sports and a leftist meme saying they should just be happy they aren’t being thrown off a building in Saudi Arabia.
Poor people are getting blown to bits, shootings way up. They are also getting eaten alive by inflation.
Wheat now at $12 a bushel. Nice. Will get worse due to the fertilizer shortage and lost Ukrainian wheat production. Let's Go Brandon.

I have no problem with this green movement as long they become fully operational and scaled before dropping oil and natural gas. That's what Germany did, and look how that's worked out for them.

That's not a bug it's a feature
It's precisely because it doesn't scale
No tax dollars should be wasted on it and carbon energy needs to be found and used
Because it works. Clean air worked. The left can never accept any victory because they don't actually give a shit if it works
Fucking the west is the plan
