The Frankish Reich Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 1 hour ago, SoCal Deek said: I’m certainly no genius when it comes to macro economics but you don’t have to be one to realize that the Biden Administration’s policies were NEVER designed to curb inflation. Why? Because for the longest time they refused to admit there even any inflation even happening! Remember the infamous 18 cent Fourth of July? So instead they just kept spending. The motto was “We can’t be out of money…we still have checks!” Like everything else, this issue isn’t complicated! True. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 House #3 Democrat: "All of us knew" House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D., S.C.) on Thursday said congressional Democrats knew when they signed off on President Joe Biden’s multitrillion-dollar legislative plans that the laws would lead to increased inflation. “Let me make it very clear. All of us are concerned about these rising costs, and all of us knew this would be the case when we put in place this recovery program,” Clyburn said on MSNBC after host José Díaz-Balart asked about Americans’ struggles with surging food and energy prices. “Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise.” https://hotair.com/headlines/2022/10/21/house-3-dem-all-of-us-knew-n505038 .

You can do that with a topic like climate change, where the repercussions are decades away, but not with the price of gas and groceries, which people experience every week. We’re going to see if they pay a political price for that mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are nominated by the President but I don't think the administration dictates what they do. If so The Fed would not be raising interest rates seeing the Administration says inflation is supply chain (which is MUCH better that it was) issues, transitory so it was going away, Putin's war which The Fed can do nothing about.

I’m not actually paying much attention to either. My point was that the Biden Administration really miscalculated here (politically speaking) and chose to believe that the American people either wouldn’t notice or wouldn’t care if the cost of everything they buy went up. Was it that hard to say ‘we feel your pain’? Really bad move on their part…not that anyone behind the curtain will get fired over that unforced error.
