The Florida Blueprint: Inflation

[SectionC3]

Maybe one of our newly-minted MAGA Commies (I think that's @Big Blitz) can pop in and explain how, just like Biden should have taken control of the economy, De Santis should do the same in Florida to address this free market issue.  I believe that this is one of the ups and downs of capitalism.  Our MAGA colleagues, however, do not.  Sad.

I think you're gonna lose everyone at "MAGA commies"

 

As that name calling far left tactic is a full on commie tactic. 

 

Maybe you'll get someone intelligent to try to dissect what else is wrong with your post, who knows?

Hoax.  Apparently satire is not something with which my MAGA commie colleagues, such as you, are familiar.  It's a sad indictment maybe of our schools, perhaps of your parents, and definitely of you.

Insurance costs are out of control in Florida. That's a huge tax on the people of that state. No leadership from "Let them eat cake" DeSantis

Maybe the commie left can tell us how a two plus year trend is temporary and transitory, first?

 

Cue marxist tactic of redefining what words actually mean.

I’m sorry what about Florida inflation?  
 

I was just buying an undersized shrinkflated sandwich at a local diner here in Virginia for $10.

 

 

The fear is real.  You morons want nothing to do with him in a general and state run news in coordination with Trump surrogates (they are absolutely in communication even tho I’m told Trump is a criminal) are trying to take him out.  
 

Trump’s media friends are trying desperately to do the same.   
 

It ain’t happening.  

 

Carry on.

It’s a problem, but not exactly one I’d really lay at the feet of the Governor. 
 

Given the hurricanes, smaller companies can’t afford to absorb losses, therefore the only companies that can insure Florida are the big ones .. and even they have insane loss ratios.  
 

They can file for rate increases with the state DOI, but then it’s up to the DOI to approve (and everyone’s rates go up) or deny (and then more companies leave or have a new business freeze). 
 

For instance multiple companies have left both Florida and California recently .. and in California, even big companies have announced a new business freeze on certain lines of business because they won’t approve the requested rate increases and tell insurance companies to spread the rate increases for loss ratios onto other states (that’s their attempt at protecting Cali consumers) but then you get new business freezes and threats to leave the state.

And for the record - look it up I’ve said it repeatedly - there is no fixing this inflation disaster for a decade.  
 

A DECADE.  Enjoy your retirement everyone over 55 - it’s gonna hurt.  Make them pay at the ballot box by never voting commie ever.  
 

 

Fate sealed with Covid.  A flu we sacrificed the Constitution, freedom, and prosperity for.  
 

Except one man called it the overblown sham that it was.

Hoax.  You think Biden should take control of the national economy to stifle inflation.  Yet you don't feel the same about De Santis commanding the Florida economy.  You must be a selective commie, then.  Which is even worse than being a regular commie.  At least the full-time commies are principled.

This is what happens when you have an almost libertarian approach to economic issues.  Personally, I'm somewhere in the middle.  I like it when I turn my car on and it doesn't explode because we have regulations and standards for matters of such nature.  But the flip side is that people pay more in the absence of such things as rate controls for insurance products.  And I'm generally OK with that (except, perhaps, in an area like health coverage that is susceptible to gouging).  Such is life.

Hoax.  Good thing we didn't privatize social security 25 years ago like Republicans wanted.  Nobody thought about a black swan like the WTC or COVID.  And if social security was privatized, people trying to retire in 2021 would have been in a tough spot.  Not me, because I'm not a hand-to-mouth MAGA whiner and I work smartly for a living.  But some other people.

Student loans: Looming payments put spotlight on ‘real danger’ for borrowers

 

Americans with student loans could see thousands of dollars in interest added to their tabs as part of President Biden’s backup relief proposal.

 

The Biden administration is attempting to use a proposed aid program to help millions of student debt holders handle the dual blow of payments resuming in October and the Supreme Court striking down a sweeping debt forgiveness plan.

 

Biden’s “on-ramp” repayment plan allows borrowers in financial distress to delay payments from Oct. 2023 to Sept. 2024 without the threat of default or credit score decline.
 

But unlike the current pause on student loans, interest will still accrue on those loans and give borrowers a steeper hill to climb when they begin payments again.

This whole thread is insane, you actually believe that a single state can stop the federal government from doing something? Or do you want to admit you don't have the slightest clue why this inflation is happening?

Expensive tastes. We've been through this before. 

They can price it at that absurd level because they will find buyers at that absurd level.

Hoax.  Inflation has occurred because of free money (a MAGA policy idea) and pent up demand.  And, your pal Ron could promote such things as rent control measures (like in New York City) to help curb inflation in his home state—a species of governmental involvement in the economy that MAGA commies wish to conduct on the federal level.  But he hasn’t.  So MAGA now is at an interesting crossroads - it can choose a path of intellectual honesty and fault De Santis (as it has Biden) for failing to intercede in the free market economy.  Or it can use MAGA logic, fault Biden for failing to take the MAGA commie approach that MAGA now seems to espouse, and continue to look the other way as Ron diddles around trying to use the levers of government to mess with a cartoon mouse with whom he disagrees.

Hoax.  I’m a capitalist.  Supply and demand, big boy.  This is what it costs if you want to buy a wasteful SUV.  And, apparently, there are people who buy this car at that price.  You keep on being a MAGA commie.  I’m going to be keep on being a capitalist.
