I thought we were talking about economic growth. You said stagflation.

Apparently without knowing what the word means. The current unemployment rate is 3.8%. Stagflation is persistently high inflation, no growth, and high unemployment. I guess you can redefine the terms, like you're attempting to redefine your own argument.

When you calculate inflation with meaningless metrics, inflation is low.

That's the million dollar question right now. Do we want 5 more years of 3% inflation or a recession?

I think it's stagflation for many years to come. Nothing is allowed to fail now.

Except for the fact that the economy is growing, sure.

Yes. All these layoffs and revenue decreases are screaming growth.

It's like you're totally unaware of how economic growth is calculated.

It's like you're totally unaware of how the CPI is manipulated.

Thanks Don for your part in artificially and juicing the wealth growth and

I agree. And now it's being accelerated by Biden.

That's always been the relationship to purchasing power vs inflation though. That's not different today vs before.

They lie about the actual inflation numbers

Maybe just maybe inflation is a function of capital markets

Or maybe it's an out of control central bank and federal government.

What caused inflation before 1913 when the FED was created? Or did it exist?

Apr 9, 6:07pm

But money supply!

The actual figure is the average family has 17% less spending power since 2021
