> "Seems to be snowballing." So you're going by "feeling?" [url=https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/current-inflation-rates/]Inflation 2013 - 2023 [/url]= 3.7% despite crude oil prices and the war in Ukraine. 1) 3.7 is not that bad. Its one of the lowest rates in the past 50 years. I've seen a lot worse, like after Vietnam. Inflation is how governments pay for wars. GZERO 2) The fed is intentionally making it worse to suppress buying and encourage saving. The fed members have been appointed by both demo and repub administrations. 3) We spent 10 trillion on two useless wars in the middle east that just made things worse there. Someone has to pay for them = CONSUMERS. I was opposed to the wars from the start. 4) We're about to spend 1.1 trillion for manned space propaganda. Somebody's gotta pay for that too... and its not going to be the people who benefit, like the spoiled kids of the ultra-wealthy who wanna go on a space joyride in Musk or Bezo's spaceships.
