Inflation skyrocketed because Washington spent like drunken sailors. Under Biden, HHS ballooned from $1.2T to $1.7T annually - your tax dollars funding bureaucracy, not solutions. The Treasury's budget DOUBLED to $1.3T while defense only grew 26%. This isn't economics - it's looting. Real inflation comes from politicians treating your wallet as their piggy bank for vote-buying schemes and global handouts. The numbers don't lie: 51.7% spending increase since 2019 proves DC's the inflation engine.

The people who dispute this fact couldn't run a lemonade stand located at a desert crossroads to profitability!

Just like Biden and his cronies did! It’s like having a wife that thinks as long as there are checks left in the ole checkbook, there MUST be money in the checking account! Ridiculous….

Yeh, I agree, but as we saw in the GFC market conditions created by financial instruments gone amok can cause the Govt to HAVE to step in and solve the over leveraged positions. Yes, by printing more money. But we need a two pronged approach. Balanced budgets and stopping these banks and hedge funds from over leveraging. We have a big risk ongoing now. Hedges and banks buy 20+% of treasuries now, before GFC was 0%. Then they use as collateral to pick up pieces on a carry trade at 50 to 200 times leverage. We saw cracks in that system after Liberation Day. They are not solved. It’s the single biggest risk to interest rates, inflation and the market today. We are whistling past the grave yard if Treasury and the Fed don’t get on the same page fast!
