Riiiiiiiiight. Then take your specious arguments to Joe Manchin who absolutely does recognize where the problem lies. And it’s not from Trump. Trump “spending money” did not result in crazy inflation. Simple point proven by the numbers. Throwing another $1.9 trillion in unneeded spending earlier this year when it was totally not required is the reason for this mess. Powell parroting the Administration that this inflation surge was “transitory” was a disgrace to economists. Manchin recognized that and thankfully stopped this madness in it’s tracks before the country bankrupted itself.
I understand the issues completely but it is impossible to get through to an Iron Curtained mind.

Your hilarious snipes at me grow wearisome. Too bad you are no fun to play with anymore. Move to Venenzuela where your crazy economic theories are more accepted.

The numbers are not from immediate policy. How many times does it need to be said before you get that thru your iron curtained brain of yours? Economists have differing views on how it happened but yet you seem to have all the answers because of your bias.

So if some Economists believe that too much money was spent during the previous Admin how does that excuse doubling down on that policy when the current POTUS has been around the Gov't for nearly 50 years? Seems he would've learned something or he's just plain incompetent.

I’m certainly not excusing the Biden administration. As stated earlier, I think both effed up. MOR just think it’s Biden’s fault because even though he didn’t vote for him, he will do everything to protect trumo and blame Biden for our country’s failures….which sounds very familiar

Ville, he's calling out other posters/media for blaming Trump relentlessly during his Presidency while ignoring Biden's failures. This really wasn't your fight.

Two wrongs don’t make a right. That was my point. He’s doing the exact same thing he was so annoyed by.
