Inflation 101

Inflation 101

by coordi P

I love the idea of making America great

I don’t see how deportations, inflation, religion, or reduced education funding contribute to making America great though

Are you trying to blame inflation on trump or repubs? It seems like you are, but I think it is fairly common knowledge that inflation is too much money chasing too few goods and trump and repubs fought against most of the free money that still sloshes around the economy that dems worked hard to throw around after Covid and trump and repubs fought dems on trying to shut the economy down as little as possible.

Freedom of religion is bad? Or what are you saying?

The 3 expenses that have consistently gone up in price and outpaced inflation are also the 3 things that the govt is most involved with and have done the most to keep prices down - education, health care and home prices. Many Repubs are fighting for school choice which gives parents essentially a voucher to choose which school to send their kids to. So public schools will have to work like private schools have for so long to compete with other schools to attract students and their parents. This will force public schools to either catch up to private schools or shut down and be replaced by more private schools.

He is saying republicans want to force their brand of Christian fundamentalism down everyone's throats. But you knew that.

inflation is when the prices of goods go up

thats it.


A car costs $10k

the next year the exact same car costs $11,000


that car experienced 10% inflation

Does that make sense?

Trump was so against giving people money he used all his power to impose his name on those checks to make sure everyone knew where it came from ….
Baham is the inverse correlation of what reality is …

The Treasury Department has ordered President Trump’s name printed on stimulus checks the Internal Revenue Service is rushing to send to tens of millions of Americans, a process that could slow their delivery by a few days, senior IRS officials said.

Shame on you baham to be such a consistency liar .
No wonder u praise a liar like trump .

Ps: that money is long gone , been spend couple years ago .
But funny u believe this money could still be « sloshing » around but not create Infiation years later, like u always refute lol.
You are so mess up with your lies you can’t even see all the contradictions u do .


Elon Musk is a beyond brilliant man who deserves to be in Trump’s cabinet.

Or at least in his armoire.

But seriously he’s quite worthy.

I’m not sure why you felt the need to explain inflation to me. I was pointing out why we have seen inflation and not necessarily what it is.

Montreal, after dems won the fight in making sure the govt would throw money at people trump decided that if checks were going out they mine as well have his name on them.

Are you denying that through Covid dems fought to maximize the amount of money they would shove into the economy while repubs wanted a lower amount of dollars thrown out?


Personally I enjoyed the lesson on inflation. I needed a refresher from ECON 101 which honestly I mostly napped through.


Bahbah's posts always remind me fondly of that gunk that comes up from under your toenails.

This sounds like it's related to sportsball. As you can probably tell, I do not sportsball.

No idea what you are talking about. You should get that checked out.

Hold on a sec, I just did some research, as I am not currently napping, and I found out that inflation is a reduction in purchasing power.

So is that right? Or am I wrong? Is PW wrong? Perhaps we have an ECON major in the thread who can chime in and contribute.

Sounds like you might need to attend to some fairly urgent matters of personal hygiene.


can we start a thread called inflation 101?

Inflation is an increase in price. As a result you have less purchasing power. Less purchasing power doesn’t = inflation tho


There is (usually) only one party that can change the price, the seller of the good. So when prices go up, and everything else stays the same, inflation goes up

So the people making the price go up are responsible for inflation


But what if a poker coach starts charging more money?

Is that inflation?


I literally napped thru 70% of ECON 101 classes. One time they couldn’t even wake me up LOL.


by All-inMcLovin P

Obviously yes?


I think it is an increase in price spread across an entire economy or sector. Not simply the price of a single good or service going up. Could be wrong.


Is there an ECON major in the thread??? Is there?

We have an economic crisis!!!

Trump made 8 trillions deficit , covid check wasn’t even half of it ….

Btw :

https://www.reuters.com/article/world/us...

WASHINGTON/PALM BEACH, Fla. (Reuters) -The Democratic-led U.S. House of Representatives voted 275-134 to meet President Donald Trump's demand for $2,000 COVID-19 relief checks on Monday, sending the measure on to an uncertain future in the Republican-controlled Senate.
But even as Democrats helped secure approval for what the Republican president sought on stimulus payments, they spearheaded a House vote just a short time later to override his veto of a separate $740 billion defense policy bill. The rebuke, in Trump's final weeks in office, would be the first veto override of his presidency if seconded by the Senate this week.

Come again baham ?
I was sure trump was Republican ….

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/07/01/coro...

President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he supports another round of direct payments to Americans – and claims he wants to give out more money than Democrats have already proposed.
"I do, I support it, but it has to be done properly," Trump said when asked during a Fox Business Network interview at the White House whether he was in favor of sending another round of stimulus checks.
"I support actually larger numbers than the Democrats," Trump added.

If that’s the case then he surely is an expert on the topic of inflation.
