CNN economic analyst says in order to have a 'kinder' economy, inflation needs to occur

Listen to this article 0:00 / 4:06 1X BeyondWords The New York Times published a new episode of "The Ezra Klein Show" on Friday featuring an interview with Rana Foroohar, CNN’s global economic analyst and a Financial Times columnist. In the interview, Foroohar called for a ‘kinder’ and more environmentally friendly economy, and said inflation must occur in the short term to achieve those goals. Foroohar also heavily criticized the Federal Reserve for creating what she describes as the ‘everything bubble’ in financial markets. "What’s the cost of something if you actually have a real price on carbon, and then you have to tally in how much it costs to tote it over tens of thousands of miles from the South China Seas? What’s the cost if you have proper environmental and labor standards?" Foroohar asked. "This is the conversation happening right now. And once you start pricing all those costs in, and you start really thinking of the economy in a different way, then yeah, it is certainly is inflationary."

She noted how Democrats don't want to admit that inflation might be necessary to transform the economy with the midterms fast approaching.

Prices of goods will not go down. The increase in wages under Trump have already been wiped out by inflation. Lower and middle class workers have returned to struggling just to keep their heads above water. It was good while it lasted (for those brief couple of years).

Pretty sure that inflation is just as cruel, if not crueler, to the poor.

A kinder gentler tax on the poor. I’m not surprised they worked in the Global Warming Scam into this latest alternative version of reality. The sad thing is the amount of liberals who will believe it because they want to stay in tune with the hive mind.

The left loves redefining words. Cruel means kind according to them. Heck there is even a song that says so.

Where are you from the government and we’re here to help. They’ve already destroyed trust in. everything why would we trust CNN, the government, the church, Or anybody? Whoever planned this thinks They will be able to just walk in and take control by saying things like what this person is saying. But the reality of it is what’s going to happen is the entire government is going to collapse nobody will be able to control it. People these days just don’t think things through to the end.

The economy was REALLY kind in the 1700’s. And if you were lucky, you could live to the ripe old age of 45.

Inflation is theft.

The columnist is providing the story line used to distract and deceive the people who will be robbed.

"It's good for you".
