In order to fix it, they have to remove dollars from the system to right-size inflation. However, if they do that, the debt grows as a share of GDP because you can only right-size the debt by stopping it and paying it down.
We are doing so well, we don’t have to worry about the cost of illegals or of forgiving student loans, and we can freely help Ukraine with many hundreds of billions of dollars for something that could have been handled with a peace treaty.
Everything is fine!
The economy was a powerhouse just 4 years ago.

The Rats won’t cut Social Security benefits, but they have no problem creating high inflation, or fudging the numbers to limit Social Security COLA’s.

The dems love inflation. It strips people of their savings - that they worked for all their lives - and makes them poor and dependent.
The ruling elite doesn’t care about rising prices - they get cost of living adjustments.
Dems made inflation and dems are fueling inflation by unrestrained spending.
To understand inflation requires no special analysis or looking at specific categories; just look at the gold price versus the dollar. For two hundred years the price of gold jumped around with some small variance, but was always bwtween $20 and $40 an ounce. As soon as we went off the gold standard and began to print money not backed by gold, it began to soar. Now it is around $2000 an ounce. That is the real measure of currency debasement, which is really what the consumer cares about.

I retired in 2008 at 62. I was OK with my fixed pension and Social Security. Even in the Obama years I was OK.
Now I have to watch where each dollar goes. I barely have enough to cover my utilities as I made sure everything was paid off when I retired.
Under the original 1930s SS plan, you could retire at 62, but the average life span back then was 57 years, meaning most would never draw on their retirement.
Then came Penicillin.
