If history is any indicator... you won’t have to wait too much longer.

Sure, you had to bring Jimma' Carter into it didn't you!

“If history is any indicator... you won’t have to wait too much longer.”

If history is any indicator you may have to wait twenty years... and counting. Take a look at Japan’s history over the past 20 years... essentially zero inflation, and they pumped way more money into the economy than we have so far.

I personally don’t think that we’re going to see inflation any time soon - yes the fed may be printing money, but the fed isn’t the only thing that prints money.

When your house was “appreciating” 20,30 50% a year for 5 years in a row, you think that wasn’t a printing press? Well, that printing press has turned into a shredder, and so far it’s shredded a few TRILLION dollars. The fed’s press has a way to go to catch up with that shredder.
