Economy
Buckle Up: Inflation Set to Drive Consumer Prices Even Higher in 2022
2021-12-30
[Townhall] Despite President Biden's assurances to the contrary, inflationary pressure is apparently here to stay as his administration looks toward the start of his second year in office and may hope for some relief from the negative "Democrats in disarray" narrative swirling around the White House.

Made in USA - TC5 Top Load Washer with Speed Queen® Classic Clean™ | No Lid Lock or Chinese chips| 5-Year Warranty
Product Code: TC5003WN

After last two price increases, now only $1,449 MSRP
(Matching DC5 dryer sold separately, same price)

However badly Biden may want the economy to improve, Americans surely wish so more fervently. With the most expensive Thanksgiving and Christmas in memory in the rear-view mirror, there are unfortunately more price hikes to come as manufacturers and producers pass the costs of lasting inflation on to consumers. As The Wall Street Journal announced, "Everything from coffee to mustard is getting more expensive next year."

Why, yes.

#2  This will the the third time the Fed has presided over a depression (that was no Great Recession). Time well past the termination of the Fed which was suppose to oversee the end to 19th Century "crashes". Instead it fuels them.
