    And they blame Joe for gas prices and inflation. I’m surrounded by dolts who went Trump 16, Biden 20 and now are saying dumb shit like “I can live with mean tweets at 3.09 a gallon.”

    fuck this world

    they are trying to raise rates so people stop spending, which lowers demand and thus lowers costs (stops "inflation")

    the issue is that spending is not the issue, it's that the costs of things went up regardless (due to product shortages, labor reduction, companies wanting more profits, etc)

    so in theory, this *could be* doubly bad

    Tl;dr government spending is decreasing while taxes are (effectively) going up which slows the economy down. Fed raising interest rates also slows the economy down. Doing both together can slow it too much while driving inflation higher due to reduced investment. End result? Stagflation.

    Demand is just a small part of the current inflation equation. The interest rate does nothing to address supply. In many ways makes it worse. We have a housing crunch, causing rent and mortgage to soar. High interest rates makes it more expensive to build. More expensive for companies to expand capacity and supply.

    Biden is bragging about the deficit decreasing, which puts us into austerity measures. We are going to crash hard, and have little options for those who will need it.

    We're going to crash hard. And instead of spending like we should (and still should be), we will fear monger about how the stimmy's were 100% responsible for inflation and wont do it.

    I used to think the US was a blend of mostly European cultures with South American elements. We are like 80% South America without the ability to elect socialist leaders at this point.

    Unlike the rest of South and Central America, the US government overthrows our socialist leaders before the election.

    Basically the gov is slowing down growth by cutting the stimulus payments and stopping tax breaks which will lower GDP. The fed is also aggressively raising rates which will slow GDP. Real reason for inflation is global supply side so neither of things will stop inflation but they will drive us quickly into recession.

    I don’t follow closely and even if I did, I doubt I’d understand - but has the Fed ever done a good job during these precarious situations? Seems like they generally do more harm than good

    On top of overturning the existing 50 year precedent, the anti-science aspect of it is especially scary. Just a bunch of hick state legislators decided that women never need abortions. Simple as that.
