    Joe Manchin 

     

    Manchin recounted how he tried to convince Biden to work across the aisle on the American Rescue Plan and how he warned about the dangers of inflation if Democrats went through with plans to extend unemployment benefits through October 2021, but was ignored thanks to the advice of 17 Nobel laureates.

    "I warned of that, and I got criticized, as you recall, they told me they had 17 Nobel laureates," Manchin said, later arguing that they were "17 educated idiots" that were telling Biden "what you want to hear because you paid them."

    Presidents have little control over inflation which is largely driven by supply disruption and excess demand.  Polls show broad public support for American rescue plan which lead to the best economic recovery from pandemic and recession of any country in the world.  Plan prevented recession which would have been harder to manage.  In addition, plan assisted local governments, vaccine distribution, schools, unemployment benefits, housing, transportation, child tax credit, Obamacare and medicaid subsidies.

    The Federal Reserve’s favored inflation gauge just moved in the wrong direction!   It comes as President-elect Donald Trump promises massive tariffs that could push the cost of living even higher!

    Trump’s lies about tariffs

     

    CNN -
    Trump falsely claimed of the tariffs he imposed during his first presidency:

                  “They cost Americans nothing.”

     

    Study after study, including one from the federal government’s bipartisan US International Trade Commission, found that Americans bore almost the entire cost of Trump’s tariffs on Chinese products! The tariffs are paid by US importers, not foreign exporters as Trump regularly claims, and it’s easy to find specific examples of companies that passed along the cost of the tariffs to US consumers.

    Soon after the convicted criminal found liable for sexual assault who is the leader of the maga fascist party was declared victor in the election inflation began rising again

    It was falling over most of the past year leading to a fed rate cut and probability for more  

    That's up in the air now

    On the New Republic, Nobel economist Klugman warns that many Trump voters will be brutally scammed.  Biggest threat to US economy is Trump's bad policies.  Higher tariffs, tax cuts for the rich and mass deportation.  He has a history of hiring small business people  as contractors and not paying them.  Not a good bet to blindly assume second term would be the same as first term.

    On Jan. 20, President Biden will hand over to Trump with a very good economy with GDP growing at 3.1%, low 3.2% annual prices increase and low unemployment rate of 4.1%.

    Nicely done, Pres. Biden!

    Titlecp of the tread "16 NOBEL PRIZE WINNING ECONOMISTS SEE A TRUMP INFLATION BOMB!"

    Then there's talk of Biden era inflation and suddenly it's;

    "PRESIDENTS HAVE LITTLE CONTROL OVER INFLATION WHICH IS LARGELY DRIVEN BY SUPPLY DISRUPTION AND EXCESS DEMAND." "A FACT DELIBERATELY OVERLOOKED BY FASCISM SUPPORTERS."

    If that is the case then I guess those 16 economists and the Op, his supporters, are fascists for claiming a president will cause an inflation bomb. an_roll_laugh
