One sure way to fix inflation fast is a deep recession.

F that.

Lower taxes and raise import tariffs. Hold govt. spendng at present levels. Drill baby, drill. WE DONT NEED NO STINKING RECESSION.

next story down on my newsfeed here:

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/09/12/stock-futures-are-higher-as-wall-street-awaits-key-inflation-report-.html

said the market DROPPED 400 pts on inflation news.

Traditionally, “CORE INFLATION” is reported WITHOUT including “energy costs.”

All of a sudden they’re being used to fudge the numbers.

Where real inflation is: groceries. Our grocery bill, just the two of us, has more than doubled in the past year.

a freaking bag of corn chips is over $5 now, a $2 pot pie (comfort food) is a few cents short of $4, hamburger $8 a pound (I buy bison instead for another $2, lower fat, tastes better). Romaine lettuce? price doubled. And so on.

Diesel is STILL $4.50/gal locally.

In the words of Resident Alien “this is some bull$hit!”

That must’ve been too embarassing, even for AP. Here’s the new headline =>


“US inflation slows for 2nd month but remains stubbornly high”

Recession is the sure way to fix inflation quick, and that is the tool the Fed has in its box. They can’t drill, change tax/spend/sanctions laws, but they are assigned the duty on inflation, so I’m guessing they’ll get inflation down via credit defaults and then job losses. We shall see.

Gas prices are falling because Biden is depleting our Strategic Oil Reserves. Once empty, then in order to refill them the Biden Admin will compete with the American Citizen for the new oil driving the price higher.

The only thing more evil than Democrats destroying the Trump economy is the “conservatives” wanting a recession to fix things.

And now for the news from the DAP*, Inflation is still bad but not quite as bad as it was in the previous two months! Big Brother says for everybody to cheer the good news. In other news, the chocolate ration is now 20 grains!

* - DAP - Democratically Asinine Presstitutes!

LMAO but painfully.

Just under this posting is another saying the dow is down 400 on another bad inflation report.

Which is it? Up or down? The world wonders.

All we get now are lies and dam lies from the gooberment.

Would be swell if republican leadership could put a coherent message together about Biden trying to influence an election by draining the SPR. There hasn’t even been a hurricane this year, there is no excuse for the SPR to be at 40 year lows.

Eventually the Strategic Petroleum Reserve will be depleted. It’s not like gas, oil, and coal in nature. So “eventually” is not thousands of years. Perhaps one year, admittedly just a guess.
