reason10 Posted November 8, 2022 Author Report Posted November 8, 2022 And by the way, boys and girls, THE LAST group you want to consult as a source is the Federal Reserve. This is an entity that is responsible for the creation of the GREAT DEPRESSION. From one of the most brilliant economists of all time, (as well as a Fed Chairman himself) https://constitution.org/1-Activism/mon/greenspan_gold.htm https://apollofintech.medium.com/federal-reserve-the-real-cause-of-1930s-great-depression-part-1-164eb3ab18ab Quote History books falsely teach students that Great Depression of the 1930s was caused by the stock market crash of 1929, as well as, failure of businesses. It’s a dangerous myth that doesn’t blame the real culprit: The Federal Reserve. https://fee.org/articles/the-great-depression-according-to-milton-friedman/ Quote Friedman, the great free-market champion of the last 50 years and one of the most influential economists of the last 200 years, died in November 2006 at 94. He left us an immense intellectual legacy, including his explanation of the causes of the Great Depression, which, while persuading a majority of the economics profession, has yet to fully trickle down to the public. It is truly a great mystery why Friedman’s explanation has not been more widely recognized and accepted, especially given its influence among economists. Maybe the reason is that it does not lend itself to quick sound bites by politicians eager to justify more power. Or maybe it is usually presented in a way that makes it too difficult for the layperson to understand. Or maybe it is just that people find it easier to blame the “capitalists” rather than the hallowed Federal Reserve. Whatever the case, it would be beneficial to revisit Friedman’s argument. Quote

You posted NO HISTORY of inflation nor ANYTHING which refutes the history I posted. Quote

Those are the facts, and facts don't care about your feelings. No reason to believe ^this opinion. All the spending that Biden approved to recover from the pandemic, Trump did EARLIER. Of course Trump's tax cuts ALSO expanded the money supply. Inflation would have soared earlier if he had not BUNGLED the pandemic response. Quote

Those are the facts, and facts don't care about your feelings. Serious question, do you have some condition? This is your claim: "Biden is solely responsible for the massive EXPLOSION of M-1 dollar supply" This is reality: FRED You're utterly disconnected from reality, shouting that night is day and the sky is green. You're not even disagreeing about causes, but about plain, recorded facts. If you have some kind of condition or excuse for this behavior we can make accommodations. But if you're just an obstinate troll you deserve to be roundly mocked. Quote

Those are the facts, and facts don't care about your feelings. Do even get that all you do is state opinions as fact? A "fact" is something that is objectively true and measurable. For example, "There is inflation." That is a fact. "Inflation is Biden's fault" is not a fact. At least, not the way you state it. Why do you think that the current worldwide inflation Biden's fault? What US federal government policy, in your opinion, would change it? Quote @reason10: “Hitler had very little to do with the Holocaust.”

They are, after all, the definitive source for that information. You are arguing that people should ignore*actual* data, and instead slurp up opinion pieces. I see you're just tripling down on stupid. How Trumpian. We see you. Edited November 9, 2022 by Hodad 1 Quote

Since you cannot point to it, it doesn't exist. Here is what YOUR reason.com CITE SAYS: Quote The Consumer Price Index (CPI) tracks the cost of everyday items. It's jacked up a whopping 6.8 percent over the past year, the biggest increase in almost 40 years. Which beLIES your claim it is highest IN HISTORY. Go ahead and re-demonstrate your dishonesty by LYING AGAIN. Bye Bye ? Edited November 10, 2022 by robosmith Quote
