IndyColtsFan 299 Posted August 16 3 hours ago, jerryskids said: At the risk of interrupting the "master class" you are putting on... Inflation is the result of a reduction in buying power for your currency. Spending in and of itself doesn't cause inflation. If you don't print more money, but rather move around where that money is spent, that shouldn't cause net inflation. If you print more money to do any of the things you listed, or to give $25K to homebuyers, or pass the $2T Inflation Increase Act, then that causes inflation. OMG. Inflation isn't the result of a reduction in buying power for your currency. Inflation IS reduced buying power for your currency. Inflation in general is the result of supply and demand. Gas prices plunge in 2020 because everyone is quarantined and not moving around. Gas prices soar because everyone is making up for lost time while COVID compromised the supply chain. Gouging mixed with compromised supply and other factors caused grocery prices to go up. For fock's sake took down to the community and take a basic focking economics class.

Strike 4,429 Posted August 17 8 hours ago, The Real timschochet said: A more recent example than 1945: Prop 13 in California stabilized property taxes in this state ever since and created a huge demand in new homes here because it “artificially” allowed new buyers to afford houses by keeping the taxes low. Virtually every Republican supported it and still do; liberals hated it (and most still do.) The result of the new demand in homes was many more homes, stability, prosperity, and an economic dominance here that has lasted nearly 50 years. But that was a government investment that conservatives like, so words like “Marxism” never came up. Just getting back to this thread. you seem to have minimal understanding of proposition 13. It doesn't keep taxes low. When you buy the house you are taxed at the prevailing rate at that time. Prop 13 limits how much it can increase after that. if you can't afford the property taxes at the time you purchase it you can't afford the house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDC 6,435 Posted August 17 UAW sues Donald Trump and Elon Musk, accusing them of pushing to fire striking workers Charlie Langton(FOX 2) - UAW files federal labor charges against Trump, Musk Donald Trump and Elon Musk had a 2 hour conversation Monday night, where they touched on several subjects from immigration to Ukraine. At one point, the two talked punishing workers who are on strike. The United Auto Workers Union has filed complaints against Donald Trump and Elon Musk, alleging the two advocated for firing striking workers. The former President and the owner of X held a conversation on Musk's social media platform Monday night, where they touched on several subjects from immigration to Ukraine. At one point, Trump and Musk were talking about workers who go on strike for better wages. Trump said if workers "go on strike, and you say ‘that’s okay, you're all gone. You're all gone.' So everyone is gone." Under federal law, a company can not fire its employees if they are on strike. The Unfair Labor Practices charges were filed with the National Labor Relations Board, the UAW said Tuesday, just hours after the discussion. More than a million people tuned into the session. "When we say Donald Trump is a scab, this is what we mean. When we say Trump stands against everything our union stands for, this is what we mean," said UAW President Shawn Fain in a news release.

IndyColtsFan 299 Posted August 17 Here's the CNN link: https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/16/business/harris-price-gouging-ban-inflation/index.html So the article asserts that doing nothing is the best thing to do, even though MAGAturds blame the executive branch for the high prices and whine that it isn't doing enough to counter them, but then Harris proposes something, and they pivot to slim grocery profit margits and then bring up CNN - which they previously refused to accept as a valid news source and lump it into their weird MSM bucket - as a valid information source. SUDDENLY CNN! For fock's sake pick something and stick to it. Y'all like a flock of birds that can't decide which direction to go. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
