Nice thoughtful response! What a pleasant change from what gets posted here so often 🙂 Thank you!

Yes, I agree with you - in the US economy there are significant inflationary signs. Will be very interesting to see if this actually results in inflation though - as there have been a lot of these signs over the years... and still nothing. It should, don't get me wrong! But, so far... nada.

There are a lot of countries in Europe which have used quantitative easing (yeah I know about that phrase being made up since 2008 - printing money!) - also showing little to no inflation, yet lots and lots of inflationary pressures. It's just that the deflationary pressures are greater - still. Although very hard to quantify!

BTW - not to nit pick, but Buffett actually said he was seeing inflation in what his businesses were doing... everything was costing more (was at his last Annual Report for Berkshire Hathaway...). Not that he was expecting more inflation. I have a lot of time for that man (obviously... super successful!) and so I tend to make sure I don't 'read between the lines' with him, as he's normally super precise in what he's saying. I think he was probably making a more painful comment that inflation isn't measured very well if lots of the things that people buy are getting more expensive, but that's not showing in the inflationary numbers (something I would tend to agree with... inflationary numbers being rather political beasts and tied to so much related to how the government functions!).

@calatar

Calling you a liberal is an insult? I thought you people thought it was a badge of honor.

Wrong, you have ignored your buddies doing exactly what you complain about me doing. I start a thread about Biden and the very first reply is whataboutism dragging Trump into it. Later in that thread, you accuse me of whataboutism.

Why should I strive to be better than the people that claim to be so much better than me?

You are making excuses for why you are going after me, while ignoring your fellow liberals. That makes you a typical liberal.

@bi4smooth Typical.. you just can't keep a liberal from their daily diet of ground up children and deep state lies! It's their bread and butter!

@tobert0

BLM is based on lies and its leaders use it for their own personal gain. "Hands up, don't shoot" was proven to be a total lie.

BLM ignored the case I mentioned because they could not racialize it. They get butt hurt when people say "all lives matter" because they don't care about any lives except black lives.

BLM doesn't care when blacks kill blacks.

PS: Your post was good, even though I disagree with you.

@chanelkokoro

Dems have been promising us ENDA (or one of its 5 other names) since 1971 and still nothing.

RFRA is still the bigoted law of the land and the Dems have done nothing to reverse it.

Dems have given us nothing good, but they have given us homophobia.

Anyone see the 2 videos of machete fights in London from last week?

It's a common occurrence in the UK, especially London. It's multiculturalism at its finest.

It's more proof that black lives only matter when liberals can blame honkies.

Just last week, Governor Ron Desantis of Florida passed an anti-riot law and was harshly criticized for it. Apparently, passing laws against terrorism and rioting is RACIST.

Even if the USA did not exist - the Climate would not be affected. The climate is only affected by major factors such as population growth, active volcanoes, China, India, Mexico and other major polluters.

It's not nice to refer to the Chicago Mayor as being Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice isn't that ugly! You should apologize to Beetlejuice for saying he looks like that zombie from hell in Chicago.

"right-wing propaganda", says the RINO swampy, Dem voter.

Why didn't they speak up when Trump was President?

I don't know which 'they' you are referring to here but the 'liberal media' has been pushing nothing else for 4 years during Trump. It's called Russia-Gate!

@bi4smooth said in National Debt Exceeds $123 Trillion, or Nearly $800,000 per Taxpayer:

Just to set the record straight here:

Biden didn't kill the $15 minimum wage, the Parliamentarian of the Senate did when they ruled that that part of the legislation couldn't pass through the "budget reconciliation" rule - which is how they passed it without the "danger" of a filibuster.

Biden is a "tax and spend Liberal - the same as he was in the '70's... the biggest differences are

he is dreaming much bigger now! Who, in the 1970's, would have had the balls to propose spending at these levels! Not even the most daring liberal or socialist! he is targeting his tax increases solely at "boogey men" - corporations and the "ultra-rich"

But, don't be fooled: it's still "tax and spend" liberalism!

Remind me again who you voted for, despite knowing this.

TDS is a powerful mental illness.

You remind me of the guy who nearly chopped off his dick trying to cut off his foreskin because his golddigger said she wouldn't have sex with him because he was uncut.

@raphjd said in Chauvin trial judge blasts 'abhorrent' Democrat for calling for riots if no conviction:

@bi4smooth

Your posting history is defending Dems and spewing TDS crap.

You love the RINOs and swampies.

You are self-delusional...

@bi4smooth

Nope, I'm just pointing out that your extreme TDS explains everything you post.

@bi4smooth

Sorry, but everything you post screams extreme TDS.

Also, the only "Republicans" you like are RINOs and swampies, yet you voted for Honest Joe and his pro-China, anti-American agenda because Trump told a few fibs about how great he is.
