Friday, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen advised that “there will be some continued shortages” heading into the holiday season as a result of inflation.
“CNN Newsroom” anchor Wolf Blitzer asked Yellen if inflation is “going to get worse Yellen predicted energy prices would “begin to moderate in the months ahead,” and price increases across the board would “subside.”
“Well, there will be some continued shortages,” Yellen stated. “Semiconductors are in very short supply. That’s caused the prices of both new and used vehicles to surge. Energy prices have gone up, but I believe energy prices will begin to moderate in the months ahead. That’s what market signals and fundamentals suggest.before it gets better.”

Inflation is a general rise in the price level, not the result of shortages in particular areas. It’s because of lose money policies [eg overheating the printing press paying Paul by devaluing the currency for every Tom Dick and Harry]. More money spent on, say, gasoline or steel means less money to spend at the grocery store. All prices going up is inflation.

She doesn’t care. She has enough money to withstand any inflation increase in prices which will crush the middle income families.

Yeah, a severe shortage of intelligence at The Fed.
If you think it’s bad now, just wait.

These were the heroes who saved us
sixteen cents on our 4th of July cookouts, after all. That would be enough to pay for the plastic bag you take your groceries home in if those weren't already illegal. Wait for: "If you had some stuffing you could have turkey and stuffing for Thanksgiving. If you had some turkey."
