Similarly, money is "destroyed" when people default on debt. This is why a bunch of stimulus didn't cause inflation in 2008.
The elephant in the room is that from a debt perspective, when you consider both public and private debt we're in a worse situation than we were in 2008. |
|
Date: October 31st, 2024 12:16 PM Author: indulgent What Im trying to figure out is how the inflation can be pinned on Biden.
The Inflation Reduction Act was basically an infrastructure bill that could increase inflation. But was it all due to that?
The stimuluses during covid and post covid were at the end of Trumps term and the beginning of Bidens term. There was also stimulus during Obama.
The fed also printed a lot more money during the Trump admin and Biden admin.
Trump did Tax cuts and they have largely remained for Biden admin.
How do all those things work together were you can point to someone and say 'that caused inflation.' |

When you send Ukraine several hundred billion and then Israel another hundred billion and Taiwan and others another however many billions all while also spending on other bs and allowing in a ton of illegal immigrants who we also fund it is really hard not to blame the administration for the resulting inflation.
People are far more sympathetic to tax cuts which is ultimately letting people keep the money they earned as opposed to giving it to a bunch of foreigners on dubious grounds. |
