More inflation is coming our way:

This is the reaction to the election wipeout on Tuesday. It’s a reaction borne of fear and panic. There’s not an iota of thinking behind it.

Do not panic, the same thing will happen to these 2000-dollar checks as happened to Musk/DOGE 5000-dollar ones. (Yes, I am so old I remamber THAT time.)

Trump started the current inflation by mailing out COVID checks. He can do it again, unfortunately. But let’s remain hopeful that he won’t.

The national debt increased approximately $7.8 trillion only in his first presidency. He basically single-handedly increase our national debt by about 40%. Truly astounding. I see he’s trying to beat that number.
And yes yes democrats are not any better, but I still remember when Republicans were about reining in the national debt and fiscal conservatism.

Let’s not pretend that there wasn’t a completely abnormal situation that needed addressing.

He increased the national debt by $3.2 trillion between January 2017 and 2020. It’s not any better.

I’m definitely for tax decreases instead of crazy payouts. Let’s motivate those who actually pay into the system.
