Dense Fortune Magazine Blames ‘Aging Boomers’ for Stubborn Inflation
NewsBusters ^ | 12/7/2022 | Joseph Vazquez

Leave it to leftist rags like Fortune magazine to target older Americans to insulate President Joe Biden’s disastrous economic policies from blame for the ongoing inflation struggle.

The magazine published a condescending Nov. 30 story with a ridiculous headline: “Aging boomers are making it harder to tame inflation—and there are no quick solutions in sight.” Fortune complained about “fewer older Americans handing over your fast food order or working part-time at the local grocery store” before dipping deeper in the toilet of brazen elitism. “Those missing workers are not just causing the ‘help wanted’ signs to linger, but are actually making it harder to tame sky-high inflation levels,” Fortune spewed. Never mind that sky-high inflation presumably wouldn’t be this much of an issue in the first place if it weren’t for the Federal Reserve’s insane money-printing policies compounded by Biden’s spending spree initiated through his gargantuan $1.9 trillion stimulus in 2021.

In fact, Fortune’s propaganda piece didn't even mention the word “Biden." It even attempted to wield analysis from the environmental, social and governance standards (ESG)-obsessed BlackRock to lambaste the changing demographics and make the Fed appear like a victim.

Well, I retired about 18 months ago and part of the reason was I am starving the beast. I collect SS and pay no taxes. I paid off all my real estate and am living quite comfortably on SS. In fact, my monthly cost of living is 1/3 of my monthly SS payment. Where the rest is going is a secret...

But yes, I’m starving the beast. And by “beast”, I mean our grossly consumerist and cancelling culture.

What a warped article. Working seniors prevents inflation? Just how does that work?

There are plenty of beaners and welfare kings and queens. Put their sorry asses to work. No work, no eat, no house.
