Inflation? Who cares?

It stands to reason if you print enough money and throw it away you are going to get inflation. (Along with plenty of other potentiality negative economic side effects) The only way to deal with that especially since interest rates are about as low as they could possibly go, is to raise them somewhat.

Pretty much the same guy and pretty much the same story. The price of riding the free shit express is going up quickly.

Anyone building a new home will feel the pinch.
Lumber prices have more than tripled in less than a year.

yep. Our close friend who lost husband bought the last house in a beautiful development, "phase one"...
before new home prices went up 30,000 dollars automatically. and "phase 3" is far worse an increase.
It's all about control. They have to screw stuff up - to control it. The repercussions are going to hit every single America, despite their emotional knee-jerk denials.
Our national debt is...28 TRILLION.
check this out:
Biden’s agenda to cost $36 trillion, up to $49K per family ...
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington...
so add 28 trillion to 36 trillion....
the sum adds up to devastating crash, debt, despair and failure as a country.
We are now like a freight train rampaging downhill toward a bridge that has collapsed.

Biden American Families Plan’s $700B mistake will cost Americans, Huckabee warns
When people say, ‘Oh, they're going to tax the big corporations, but Joe Biden's not going to tax me because I don't make $400,000 a year,’ they don't get it. It's real simple. When you raise the cost of doing business and you tax a corporation – corporations ultimately don't pay tax. They collect the tax for the government and they send it in. But in order to make up for what they had to collect, they simply raise their prices or they cut their expenses. Some of the expenses they cut will be the jobs of the people who are sitting there with a smug look on their face saying, ‘Well, he's not coming after me. Old Joe Biden isn't.’ Yes, he is, because you ultimately will pay for it.
…
It'll cost more to buy a loaf of bread, a gallon of gas. It'll cost more to buy a car, a house or a board of lumber. And that's where the cost goes up.

Some inflation is not a terrible thing, hyperinflation is.
Thr high cost of building materials is a supply vs demand issue, not an inflation one.

Did I say that lumber was due to inflation? Lumbers due to short supply supposedly because of some rainy weather but mostly as I understand from a decimated labour force.
More of a direct result of the free shit train running off the track.
As far as hyper inflation the democrats aren't going to worry about it until it arrives. Kind of the way the republicans aren't going to worry about global warming Until it's 107 in February

Nope, Canton did and that’s why my post didn’t quote you.

The rising cost of goods & services is the textbook definition of inflation.
BTW, the CPI is the metric for inflation. . .

On that we agree but as you can see the CPI is slightly higher. Using the building material example is disingenuous because supply is what has caused those prices to skyrocket. Automobile prices are increasing due to a microchip shortage, not hyperinflation.

I have a friend in Florida that told me that a sheet of plywood costs $22 a sheet (this was several years back) and when a hurricane is tracking nearby, that same sheet of plywood goes to $85 a sheet. After the hurricane passes, it reverts back to $22 a sheet.
The point being, is the demand for all building materials have been climbing for nearly a year not a short term spike.

Completely agree but that is a very different conversation from government spending and inflation.
