Warren Buffet: Inflation is here.

Historically inflation has been very, very low since the 1970s. That doesn't mean shit when the price of gasoline doubles in a year or the price of groceries goes up by 60, 70, or 100%. No inflation for 30 years doesn't mean shit when it goes up. Ask the Germans or the Venezuelans.

The new tax law hasn't passed.

Bitten said yesterday that everyone making under $400,000 wouldn't pay any taxes!


If taxes are increased on .. grocery stores, Sam's, Walmart, Target, and Cosco .... the consumers will pay the increase.

Bitten lied again!

^^Right of course But some are to ignorant to understand the fact
an analyst at Bank of America

says transitory hyperinflation is a real possibility

https://www.economicpolicyjournal.co...ransitory.html

"at the very least transitory hyperinflation is ahead"

she didn't define "hyperinflation" but that is professionally considered to be 50% per month or more

Harvard professor Greg Mankiw, who has the top best-selling economics textbooks on the market, writes in his Principles of Economics (fifth edition) text that "hyperinflation is generally defined as inflation that exceeds 50% per month."

Paul Krugman in his macroeconomics textbook (third edition), written with his wife Robin Wells, states that hyperinflation occurs when "prices rise by thousands or hundreds of thousands of percent..."

of course krugman is krugman

buy your toilet paper and beans and rice and millet and sorghum and cheese and water now

Good post. Stephen Moore, the economist, says around 70% of the tax increase on corporations and businesses will be passed onto the consumer and taken out of employees wages.

Inflation has been around forever. Past 30 years it has arrived via asset bubbles and usually in oil and gas. Now we have lumber, housing, and manufacturing which are not necessarily bubbly but way above average appreciation
