Rand Paul report on inflation, it's going to get worse!

[McRocket]

Let's see if we can get you past this diversion.
In the post in question, I first quoted your exact words.


Shortly after I say -

I have already quoted you so the fact that my sentence doesn't include mostly could be a problem if it was my only statement. Most readers would have read your complete statement first before reading mine. They would know about the word mostly. If this was the end of my argument then it could be a case of my changing your argument but I am not arguing that you said all instead of mostly. I am arguing that your actual statement that I provided a quote for is false because Powell's use of the word generally shows that inflation is mostly being caused by supply side issues.

Let me correct my statement so we can continue on with the actual discussion.

I should have said.

You clearly claim that inflation is mostly NOT being caused by supply-side problems. You do understand the meaning of the word "not", correct?.

Now perhaps you can deal with the rest of my argument.

Read none of that after the first sentence.
I am not wasting my time on your blather if you cannot even answer the simplest of my questions.

I will try this ONE more time.

If your first word is not either 'true' or 'false'?

I am going to assume that you are just not capable of answering even the most INCREDIBLY, simple question.

And move on.


Once again...

'Here is what I typed that you quoted.

'What I meant was that the inflation causes are now mostly NOT being caused by supply-side problems due to economic recovery from the Covid Depression.
But due to systemic weaknesses brought on by government lockdowns/Covid-19 meddling all over the world.'

So...you are claiming that I said that 'inflation is NOT being caused by supply-side problems'?

True or false?'

I assume reading comprehension was not your thing..

We know it's not yours because you wouldn't have posted a link where the Fed Chair told the Senate supply-side issues are the main cause of inflation.

And then you wouldn't have altered that post 4 hours later.

[Poor Richard Saunders]

FALSE

In reality I already answered you and you have stated you have refused to read it. Not only did I answer your question, I clarified my statement for those who are at a 10th grade reading level so they would know my sentence wasn't the claim you allege. Do I need to start writing as if you are at the 6th grade reading level?

[LV426]

Wrong, actually.

The Fed says that the current inflation is no longer 'transitory'.

'Generally, the higher prices we’re seeing are related to the supply and demand imbalances that can be traced directly back to the pandemic and the reopening of the economy,” he said. “But it’s also the case that price increases have spread much more broadly in the recent few months across the economy, and I think the risk of higher inflation has increased.”

Then where is your retraction and apology for erroneously stating the following?

'You clearly claim that inflation is NOT being caused by supply-side problems. You do understand the meaning of the word "not", correct?.'

Don't worry...I will not hold my breath waiting for it.

Bye now.

I told you Pol Pot?

No answers to half-ass quotes.

Since you already stated you agree with me on current inflation (that it is NOT transitory).

And you cannot follow the simplest of instructions?

We are done here...for now.

Have a nice day...Pol Pot.

Because you stupidly thought it could be used as a weapon in your ongoing (and pretty pathetic) attempts to shirk responsibility for the pandemic you and your Nazi pals caused by blaming Biden or Democrats or whatever.

You were so sure of it based on the headline alone that you posted it at 6:30AM...but then you changed the post four hours later, after I had already started going after you for it.

In fact, I responded to your post at 9:15AM...then at 10:30AM, you changed the post.

So something must have happened between 9:15 and 10:30 that caused you to go back into your original post and change shit.

So what was it? What prompted you to take that action? It was because I was giving you shit for it, wasn't it? That's why you changed the post around and altered it...because I fucking caught you bullshitting everyone.

See...and you just altered another post!

How many posts have you altered on this thread?

Your spatial skills must be so out of this world maybe you should start building sand castles one grain at a time.

Why should I have to apologize for something I didn't claim? I already corrected what I wrote for those that don't have a high enough IQ to understand context. Because you didn't read it is on you, not me.

Meanwhile back at the real discussion:
Your claim about inflation was false and is still false and rather than admit it you want to troll with diversions.

Edited for typo

Sen. Paul blames the 7% spike in consumer prices – a 40-year high – on excessive coronavirus relief spending by Congress

yes thats partly correct but not nearly all of it.

best get ready for the big "correction". and it wont bounce back till donkeys are out of the White House.

Oh well...no retraction.
No conversation.
Until I feel like it.

BTW.
I do not even begin to care what you or almost anyone thinks about macroeconomics.
All I care about are statistics/data/trends that are ALL from unbiased sources.
Everything else is nonsense.

I don't even give a shit what the Fed thinks.
They are beyond useless and overrated.
But I know many of you people think they are semi-Gods on economics.
So I use them as a source, sometimes.

As for inflation?
Time will tell.

It was Powell that removed the word 'transitory'.

If you disagree?
I suggest you contact him.

It is not the term I am discussing but the fact that "through the middle of next year" (1.5 years) is not that long in economic cycles/trends.

[Flash]

But there is far less Covid-19 relief spending from Congress now, so wouldn't inflation start falling? If it does not start falling, then his claim is false.

It will start falling when productivity and supply catch up with demand and the Fed increases interest rates. The positive is that people are spending.

And naturally they will find a way to blame republicans!

Impeach Slow Joe for his out of control inflation...and everything else he and Kam have gotten wrong.
