I have noticed that. Even vax “safety and effectiveness” to my chagrin.

But that is the hallmark of a good leader.

I know Trump also had some stimulus bills but it seemed to me inflation really hit “overdrive” after Biden’s bill. I think the difference was Trumps bill was a direct payment to ALL Americans so the economy was stimulated and we had money to spend. (After saying that let’s be honest—frugality wasn’t Trumps best quality)

Also Biden has spent more in his first year than any year Trump was in office (2020 6.6 trillion, 2021 6.8 Trillion). So that’s a reason for much of the inflation, printing money. IMO.

Just for farts and giggles I also noticed in my search the last year the US had a surplus was 2001. Imagine if you had been going deeper in debt every year for 21 consecutive years….
