Earlier, we reported on the deranged, confused, false ramblings of a senile old man who is so out of his depth in running the world’s biggest economy, the catastrophic results will soon be obvious to even his most die-hard fans. Now, it’s time for his nemesis on the world scene, Russia’s Vladimir Putin to respond.
Speaking in a TV interview on Friday evening, following a meeting with African leaders in Sochi, Putin accused Western leaders of trying “to shift the responsibility for what is happening in the world food market” and said that “restrictions imposed by the US and its allies against Russia and Belarus will only exacerbate the looming global food crisis by affecting fertilizer trade and sending the food prices further up.”
Instead of looking toward Russian, Putin said that the root causes of the crisis lie with the US decision to print record amounts of money which led to an increase in global food prices, as well as Europe’s over-reliance on renewables and short-term gas contracts

Rand Paul said something about economic opportunity zones.
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?
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.
As much of a murderous thug as Vlad is, he’s a way better than Brandon will ever be.

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.
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.

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.
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

toss the economy into a tailspin.
This bastard isn’t done either.
