Inflation is down!

No, inflation is still up almost 4% from last year, where it was up almost 7% from two years ago, where it was………

These people are sick.

Well, if we're actually being honest isn't nearly every first world country around the entier globe experiencing record inflation through those years with the exception of a very select few.

Regardless of country or leader chances are at this moment you would be facing high inflationary years through that period.

Even the countries people love to flaunt such Luxembourg and Singapore are are experiencing nearly 7% inflation YoY.

US dollar is the global principal reserve currency

US dollar gets heavily inflated = the whole world experiences it

While there's some obvious impact from the US dollar it's not the primary cause of the rest of the world's inflation. Almost every first world country engaged in fiscal responses during COVID, you may agree or disagree with the responses but the majority of them can be better correlated with the rise in inflation.

I'm not here to say Biden good Trump bad, the fact is regardless of leadership there would have been fiscal responses that lead to inflation.

There isn't some merical leader that would have sought the best line of action that everyone missed during that time period.

i have to laugh when people think some perfect leader could have threaded the needle and steered us through the storm with far more grace.

-keep everything open, no lockdowns
-make old people stay inside, but not by law, just convince them in millions
-no masks, TYRANNY
-no money printing, let businesses fail if need be, muh free market!
-J&J vaccine only, any maybe not that, tis just a flu afterall
-much success, merica wins


many mistakes were made but holy fuck none of that would have ever worked.
