Quote:I can tell you didn't read the article on all the theories explaining inflation and I am also pretty sure you have been and will be screwed out of some money that could have been yours when either selling or buying real estate. The kind of people who defend Trump are not the kind of people who understand that capitalism is a selfish contest between greedy people for prize money. When they mention supply-demand curves as the main explanation for prices, you know they will not be winning the prize.

You picked a stupid example, bc home buying (demand) is highly multiplied by interest rates. Household purchases (food, gas, electricity, clothes, etc), usually paid for in cash, don't depend on interest rates. Demand is SOMEWHAT elastic, but you can't squeeze people below starvation levels without flirting with revolt.

Quote:The joke is on you, 6ix. Inflation will slow once sellers can see their price increases have taken all the money that suckers have. The Federal Reserve Bank keeps these helpful statistics so that sellers know what the limits are on their greed, since successful businesses understand that they can accidentally destroy themselves if they are too greedy with price increases and kill the geese (people who buy too much) that lay the golden eggs:

I understand that this is a simplistic, 100,000 foot view of things. But if it's wrong, I'd sure like to see a more detailed exposition of where inflationary pressures are supposed to come from.

Nope. Can't say I feel like there's any joke on me right now.
A lot of Jokers like you out there though, Arthur.

Just another day of things getting worse price-wise for The People in Democrat Dystopia.
November is going to be hilarious.
There's not enough "educated" whites in the country to offset all the people who will jump ship and either not vote or vote against you.

It's the economy, Stupid.
And nobody but rich white Democrats care what Biden*'s Cock-holster Steven Colbert has to say about it.
But keep pandering to the Extremists on the Left, Joe* and make sure you keep telling transgendered people how brave they are while your administration is fucking the rest of the country over.
See where it gets you.

Nobel economists were dead wrong on inflation: Don’t expect an apology

-wrong-on-inflation-dont-expect-an-apology/
Yeah. Probably aren't going to see an apology. I'm still waiting on one from Fauci, Democrat politicians and the Lying Legacy Media about Covid.
Also, The Hill joined the censorship team and removed their comment section on their articles altogether.

Congress is currently trying to suss out why gasoline prices are so high. Here's the answer:
When the price of oil goes up, so does the price of gasoline. To get the price of gasoline, just divide the real price (adjusted for inflation to 2022 prices) of a barrel of West Texas Intermediate crude oil by 38 and then add $1.10 to get the real price of gasoline. That's the dashed gray line. The actual price of gasoline is shown by the red line. For you nerds out there, this regression has an R-squared of .95. For you non-nerds, this means that the price of oil explains 95% of the variation in the price of gasoline.
https://jabberwocking.com/oil-is-up-gasoline-is-up-any-other-questions/
Why are there 42 gallons in a barrel of oil? Soon after America's first commercial oil well of 1859, a small group met in northwestern Pennsylvania and decided a 42-gallon barrel was best for transporting their oil. When filled with oil instead of fish or other commodities, a 42-gallon “tierce” weighed 300 pounds.
Red Line - US Regular Conventional Gas Price, NOT adjusted for inflation
Black Line - Crude Oil Prices: West Texas Intermediate

Quote:Inflation rates in Canada/United States/Mexico are close to the same, which shoots down the argument that inflation in the US was uniquely/solely/exclusively caused by injecting an additional $2.4 trillion into the economy on top of the $4.1 trillion committed to the American Rescue Plan and the Cares Act:

The Capitalists in all three countries keep track of the prices in the other two and they use that knowledge to decide how much they can gouge the citizens of their own country. Too bad the governments of Mexico and Canada have exactly the same control of prices, zero, cero, nothing, as the government of the United States.
