Higher prices for basketballs, lipstick, pacemakers and automobiles

I'm good so far.

All these new TV ads featuring minorities and sexual deviants can get expensive.

...and the immoral actions of Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

The immoral actions of the Bernanke/Yellen/Powell Fed have had a lot more to do with it.

We appear to have launched all out economic war on Russia.

However, it doesn’t appear that the National Security Council has representation from the US business and finance sectors other than Janet Yellen, and I doubt that she can hold her own in the large group of foreign policy, intelligence and defense experts.

There is considerable risk that the US can screw up as badly in our economic attack on Russia as the Russian’s are in their military attack on Ukraine.

If the dollar is no longer the reserve currency of the world, thanks to our messing around with SWIFT, think Zimbabwe when it comes to inflation, given our debt and deficit spending.

But in a way, I’d be happy - because the only way to keep Americans from starving will be to listen to what the World Bank demands, which is what we SHOULD have been doing all along, which is running budget surpluses to pay down our debt. Basically saying if we want a bloated welfare state, we will now be required to pay for it, real-time, and beyond that, we’ll also have to start paying down the debt.

Fortunately, I already stocked up on basketballs. Oh, they laughed and called me a “basketball hoarder.” But who’s laughing now!

We are headed toward a “Hunger Games” style of society.

The rich, powerful, self-important will remain in their walled “Capital” living in luxury, practicing their weird, twisted entertainments while the rest of the general public live in squalor and are forced to PRODUCE in order to keep them in their luxury.

We’re watching this in real time - RIGHT NOW.

Democrats and some Republicans WANT inflation so they can “fix” it.

FYI:

Potassium iodide (KI) is the same form of iodine used to iodize table salt. KI floods the thyroid with iodine, thus preventing radioactive iodine from being absorbed.

The real blame should go right to the Xi Dung regime. It was well underway before the first Russian crossed the border.

But the fake news will now be putting 100% of the blame on Putin and vast numbers of sheeple will happily swallow that lie.
