US inflation falls to 3%, lowest level in more than 2 years, as price pressures ease

You can't handle the truth. Inflation has slightly lagged energy prices for the past 3 years. Do you think that's a coincidence? Inflation has also leveled out more quickly since the debt ceiling / spending cap agreement. Do you think that's a coincidence?
MEthinks the Fed raising interest rates had far more to do with slowing inflation than any energy policy changes. There is probably a 6 month lag in rate hikes and inflation affect. The past couple of tax cuts, artificially low interest rates and Covid are the primary causes for the last slow-down. We have allowed our infrastructure to age, we have become dependent on others for our supply needs and not tended to our needs at ome…..then got caugt with out collective pants down.
 
Inflation is running at twice the rate in Florida. Why isn’t DeSantis fixing this?
 
Supply chain issues created by the economy restarting had nothing to do with inflation?

Inflation was caused by the increase in money supply. Disinflation is the result of a contraction in the money supply. Unfortunately, the money supply increased last month. If the money supply grows too quickly from here, then re-inflation will be the result.

Their "policies" were so bad that they caused global inflation, didn't they?


Better not mess with Brandon, or else.
Other countries increased their money supply just like the US did.
 
God Damn you're an idiot. JFC man. It's absolutely astonishing how dumb you are.
Remember, just because 99.9% of people have an IQ > 55, that doesn’t mean there still aren’t a lot of people further down in that tail.

Lower and stable energy prices combined with a GOP House putting a brake on federal spending are helping. Hopefully Biden won't say or do something stupid, and the GOP House won't cave in to Graham and go crazy with more military spending.
This is dumb af. Rs get zero credit for this.
