And This is a Good Thing?
2021-07-16
[Breitbart via Bongino] On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s "Situation Room," Senate Budget Committee Chairman Bernie Sanders (I-VT) argued that the $3.5 trillion spending bill won’t add to inflation issues because it will be paid for "significantly by higher taxes on the wealthy and large corporations."
Because taxing businesses never causes inflation

#6  Bernie, socialist, who never really had a job except in government is making recommendations about a $3.5 trillion spending bill? And people in Congress see nothing wrong with this? We are in trouble.

The only people who get rich in a Marxist/Communist society are the ruling class, bourgeoisie. Bernie has bought into that deal.

We're heading towards Jimmie Carter double digit inflation numbers.

#3  In the 5 months since the Obamiden cabal seized power, inflation (.4% + .6% + .8% + .8% + .9% monthly Feb-June) has risen 3.5% or 8.7% annualized. But inflation is accelerating and in the last 3 month has risen 2.5% or 10.5% annualized.

Compare with 2019 and 2020 inflation of 2.3% and 1.4%.

#1  REVEALED: White House has quietly met with economists fearing inflation could last YEARS - not months - despite publicly saying it would be a 'temporary bottleneck' after the largest surge in prices in 13 years
