Rand Paul said something about economic opportunity zones.

” Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon in the sense that it is and can be produced only by a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output.”

Milton Friedman

Thanks for posting that famous Friedman explanation of the root cause of inflation. The politicians will point you in a dozen directions on who is to blame and never get close to naming the U.S. Government and the Fed. But they can’t fool the Freepers.

Is he?

The U.S. has been running trillion dollar deficits for the past few years, and massive billion dollar deficits for many years before that and now it's suddenly impacting food prices?

About a buck and a half per dozen.

But they sell several types of eggs....including duck eggs.

Everything they eat over there involves wheat and eggs. Lots of pasta.

“Of course, Milton meant ‘debt’ when he said ‘money’. Dollars are debt. M2 is debt, for the most part - 99% of it.”

No. That’s just you linking his name to the credit theory of money, which if anything is connected to Modern Modern Theory and not the Monetarism that he’s famous for.

[Lurker]

You have all the emotional maturity of a 13 year old girl.

No, check that. An 11 year old girl.

Okay, sure... let me rephrase then:

Where Milton said ‘money’, replace that with me saying ‘debt’. Dollars are debt. M2 is debt, for the most part - 99% of it.

I certainly didn’t and don’t mean to put words into Milton’s mouth.

ROBERTS. where did that come from 🤨

[Lurker]

You have a very strange fixation.

I suggest you seek competent psychiatric help.

[Seruzawa]

[JonPreston]

ROBERTS. Tell us more.

[JonPreston]

Yes, his full pirate name is Iron Jack Roberts, as per his Homepage.

Because how men most Russians have already learned a lesson about what happens when you embrace communism and Socialism. Did you know that one thing they used to do in Soviet Russia was to tell people something that was obviously untrue and get them to agree to the lie. It’s kind of hard to come back from that And it takes real effort and a certain embrace of the truth.

All parties need to commit to doing everything possible to ensure the free flow of fuel, fertilizer, and food.

[Arcadian Empire]

Increase the amount of goods.

While printing money won’t help inflation, it’s the oil.

It affects every single thing we do.

Transportation
Food
Supplies
You can’t double or triple the prices of fuel, and not
toss the economy into a tailspin.

This bastard isn’t done either.
