We need to have inflation for two weeks to flatten the curve.

“Food has gotten 3.5 percent more costly than it was last spring.”

"“Food has gotten 3.5 percent more costly than it was last spring.”" In April, the median price of existing homes increased 20.3 % over the last 12 months.

It depends what you purchase. Beef is up 63%. Anything that is made from corn or eats corn is up 30% or more.

I guess borrowing and printing trillions of dollars has nothing to do with inflation. Those problems are not transitory.

Kind of like the “transitory” virus period.

The fake news is already creating cover stories for Biden.
The local media today said we were going to pay more for coffee and orange juice because....wait for it....a drought in Brazil.

Spin, spin, spin, spin and more spin.
I can see plug’s henchmen now conjuring up things to tell us fools to make us believe there are no problems. Don’t believe your lying eyes and all that crap.

Yeah. This will not be transitory. It’s also just barely getting started.
If by “transitory”, they mean ten years, then yeah, it’s transitory.

They should all be looking at it from from a PRISON.

The Fed's inflation target rate has been 2% for almost 10 years.
At 2% per year, inflation destroys one half the value of the U.S. Dollar every 36 years.
How, exactly, is that currency destruction good for the American economy?
