Inflation at its highest in 40 years…

supply chain is only as strong as its weakest link

 

Back by popular demand

 

Oh yeah! You tell 'em, Henry!

 

I was wrong about the shortage driving up prices. That being said it's not 600, it was 600 a week.

 

$600 a week isn't a lot of money. But...if you look at prices and their sources - it is due to high labor costs and shortages in the supply chain. The cost of silicon isn't because there's a run on the stuff - it's because there's a shortage expecially with all those bitcoin miners. How many people getting $600 a week are running bitcoin mining operations @tinman?

look, it certainly is inflationary, but to say it's the cause of inflation is disingenuous at best when you have economics - not liberal ones and not trumpster ones - articulating the factors of why we are seeing this sudden spike in prices

 

Like I said I was wrong. I didn't realize how much supply shortages are driving up prices. When seeing news on inflation I hadn't heard the causes and now that I have I don't disagree

 

Both. People went home rethought wtf am I going to an office every day for, double checked their accounts and said I’m done.

 

If you say so

 

Don’t forget people buying those $1000 video cards to play Fortnite or league of legends

Pay goes up but you're still left behind.

Or maybe people think prices going off the charts, but shipments and imports are well below 2018 levels.

If oil prices stay high and people can not afford anything else, is that really inflation? Generally people could eat that up to a certain point...

There were four years of Trump pulling stuff from his arse every other day or sometimes multiple monthly streaks and that's the best you can come up with?

 

Well they can't taco bout it during the Beijing Olympics.

Taco Tuesday isn't gonna work...timezone issues.

 

Twisted logics to blame Biden for Trump's failure.

Trump pushed back against a wave of criticism against steel tariffs with a tweet saying'
"trade wars are good, and easy to win" https://bloom.bg/2FcEkgX
