        I’m pretty sure the context of the fed saying that is inflation was partly due to there being too many people who have jobs with disposable income. I’m pretty sure nowadays there unfortunately more people with underpaying jobs.

    To be fair, we do keep voting for people who want inflation all the time on purpose.

    Republicans: hey let’s make saving Kafkaesque so it’s harder to strike.

    Democrats: this is actually good for “the economy” so we’re cool with that.

    “Rising wages causes inflation! Increasing minimum wages causes inflation!”

    8 months later:

    “Inflation caused by corporations increasing their profit margins.”

    Nothing to see here folks

    I like the inflation much better than the 08 recession unemployment

    Of course for a lot of people the 08 recession was great because labour was so cheap.

      Yeah, back then it took me 6 months of applying to minimum wage jobs every day to finally get a job at McDonald’s.

      I mean up to certain point… If the job you don’t lose… doesn’t provide you enough to live…might as well be unemployed.

    Is inflation caused by the fed keeping the money printer on? No, it’s your fault!
