I think you can tie portions of inflation from COVID back to the supply chain issues coming out of China.


That's the obvious answer. Just look at the auto market. There are hundreds of thousands of new vehicles already built, just waiting on chips from China. Prices of limited supply of new vehicles skyrocket. Which makes used vehicles prices skyrocket.

But mainly because of all the stimulus packages. fricking assholes.


Agree here too. Remember Trump bucks?

The drop in the bucket relative to what the potato has given us, and was done during an actual time of uncertainty and sweeping shutdowns? Yea, what about them?

Uh, look at a money supply chart from COVID relief. I love the orange man and all, but knew we were in for a reckoning when I saw that.

The Russia sanctions are stupid and hurting the west. Squeezing a large food and energy producer will do that.

Biden's is about 4X what Trump's was. Biden took office when COVID was at its height.

So no, not a drop in the bucket.

We spent too much on shutting down the economy and sending out stimulus money to everyone, which caused our dollars to become less valuable. Putin might have had a slight influence on oil prices. Time to sell off some assets to retire some debt.

FIFY By the time he got in office, it was pretty obvious to most that covid was a political sham.

Which is fricking comical given he ran on ending covid, had full use of the vaccine by the time he took office, and could have chosen not to keep pushing with the covid hysteria. Trump's stimulus is defensible, Biden using covid as an excuse for nonstop printing isn't.

One of the easiest ways is to look up at the diesel prices each day when you pass the station. This morning here it was $5.20 per gallon. Like it not, the price of fuel touches most everything we buy, eat, and produce.


The most impactful input cost to produce and ship goods is the cost of energy/fuel. Since Whispering Joe was installed as president the cost of refined petroleum products (primarily gasoline/diesel/jet fuel/fertilizer) to the consumer is up a minimum of 90%……that is enough of an increase to seriously raise prices on nearly everything we consume.

Getting oil production cranking will lower inflation but Biden is going the other way and decreasing production.


Which is another indicator that these policies are intentional and not from incompetence.
