A recent “Today’s Cryptogram” was this Milton Friedman quote:

“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.”

Until they acknowledge that creating money out of nothing caused the problem, they will never be able to fix it. Not that they really want to.

He keeps saying it's his top priority, and that it's not his fault. And he hasn't actually done anything to lower gas prices, like reopen the Keystone project or backing off sanctions that are contributing to high energy prices.

It's not even the Russian invasion of Ukraine that is driving up oil prices, it's the sanctions on Russia that is driving up oil prices. Biden controls that, but he won't.

The bottom line is that Biden just doesn't want to be blamed for inflation. He doesn't care that it is here to stay for a while.

Slow Joe, The Hoe, and their large gang of criminal co-conspirators “top priority” is to keep getting richer and more powerful.

If, along the way, they destroy America, well, that is just the way the cookie crumbles.

Throughout our history, EVERY SINGLE economic downturn has been caused, some would say intentionally, by misguided and corrupt “public servants!”

The buck stops at the top, and the man at the top is incapable of doing his job for the Americn people......it’s obvious they have no respect at all for Biden, which isn’t surprising given his record and his mental state.

So, the government should just keep expanding the money supply?

ABC News has a rotating sidebar with a quote from Joe’s AFL-CIO speech:

“My plan for the economy made extraordinary progress.”

So the entire economy is going down the tubes and we have a “commission” in Washington focused on a former President for political gain instead of focusing on really important stuff for Americans. What an EPIC FAIL.

Joe B: “ “My plan for the economy made extraordinary.”

This is one time that the left’s just saying something is not enough to have their supporters believe it. Everyone goes to the Grocery store.
