He said he made those comments before he knew who Trump was…He said he listened to the mainstream media’s accusations and went along with it… He then said he changed his tune when he actually witnessed Trump’s presidency, and how successful he was at running the country…He then realized he was nothing like the media had claimed… This makes a ton of sense, as this is how most people come to know people they are unfamiliar with…You have your predetermined assumptions, and then, as you get to know the person, you realize that they aren’t as bad as people made them out to be…👍

But didn’t we always know this was going to happen? When we saw Harris bring up hoax after hoax, and never get fact check, it was obvious “the fix” was in… And ABC News was the perfect a ally, as they were known to hate Trump and favor Harris…Many have suggested this is also why she would never do a debate hosted by FOX News… Meanwile Trump always goes into “enemy territory”… Dems have been known as cheaters since they first rigged their primary in 2016, and then Donna Brazile admitted to giving Clinton the questions before the debate with Trump…So this is nothing new…👍

I was told that my understanding of inflation was “fundamentally incorrect”…I provided evidence that it was, in fact, more correct than not…👍 Where I may have been slightly off, was with part of my original solution to fixing it…But that is why I had prefaced that I was no economist or expert… But it would appear that my suggestion of cutting government spending was a good start to fixing inflation…👍

“Am I Racist” movie is a masterpiece - right wing Borat

You having chest pains over satire is actually quite hilarious… Unfortunately, for you, it also proves that YOU have no sense of humor, and that the movie is doing its job…I can’t wait to see it…😉👍 -
I’m just saying that, from my understanding, the original definition of “inflation” referred to inflating the amount of currency into circulation…And that over time people took it to mean high prices because the two were related, and it was easier for people to understand…So, people accept that as the current definition… When you say that “inflation” is caused by many things, I think this is where we are having the biggest disconnect due to using two different definitions for “inflation”… I use the original version of inflation- increase of currency into circulation…Whereas you seem to be using the modern definition, which simply means high prices…But according to the original definition, high prices are the result of inflation…It might not sound like a big deal, but when we are trying to come up with a solution for “inflation”, it really makes a world of difference…👍 …The following is straight from Google on the original definition of inflation…. “The original meaning of the word "inflation" was a change in the ratio of currency in circulation to the amount of precious metal that made up a country's money. This was due to the depreciation of currency that occurred during the American Civil War, when the number of redeemable banknotes exceeded the amount of metal available to redeem them. So, in layman’s terms, what does this mean? Why did currency depreciate during the Civil War, causing the price of goods to increase? Google responded… “…During the Civil War, currency, particularly Confederate money, rapidly depreciated because the Confederate government printed excessive amounts of paper money to finance the war, which was not backed by any tangible assets like gold…” “…The term "inflation" has since come to be synonymous with a general increase in prices. This is because the word has evolved from being applied metaphorically to something, to being applied literally and consistently to prices.” 👍 So, now that we know that the increased currency into circulation has weakened the buying power of each dollar, causing prices on goods and services to increase, I came across two main options for fixing it… 1. Cut government spending Or 2. Raise taxes

Look I get it…Your not supposed to agree with a Trump supporter…I promise I won’t tell anyone…😉

Thats fine…I can buy this… Its really not that far off from what I said, so “fundamentally incorrect” seems a little dramatic, but whatever… I had heard from some economy people before, that because prices increased on things, that that was what the word “inflation” came to be known as- and that the original definition was more tied to “inflating” the currency, which in turn, diminishes the dollar, and leads to high prices… But I’m not going to split hairs, here…I think we both have a general idea of what it means…👍

“Money available to be spent in the system”? What does this even mean? Thats not how inflation works…Maybe you need to read my previous post again… All of your questions that you asked, in your response, are there in my post… I would love to see a minimum 5% tax cut to all tax payers, and a minimum 5% reduction in government spending in the first year… What is your definition?
-
Cutting spending is the key… As you know ”Infaltion” is simply artificially injecting more currency into circulation to pay for government spending…When you do this, it diminishes the value of each dollar currently in circulation…This causes the price of everything to increase, because each dollar is now worth less than it was before… So, while you can’t, technically, take currency out of circulation, cutting spending and giving tax cuts across the board will allow business to grow to a point where it will seem like the high prices aren’t as bad anymore- almost like the economy is catching up to the inflation… I don’t pretend to be an economist, but a tax break to everyone who pays taxes, and cutting government spending, is always a good start to getting the economy back on track… Unfortunately, politicians promise the world in order to get votes, so they are afraid to do it… But Trump’s policy of “no tax on tips” is a good start…👍 I would like to see a 5% reduction in government spending across the board…

It better be to cut spending and reduce everyone’s taxes…So simple and proven to work time and again…But Big Government will always fight not feeding themselves…👍

Well this is a first, I’ve never seen a person react to their own post, and then vomit at their response…🤣🤣

Did the U.S. help install dictator Sadam Hussein to act as a counter to Iran, and to do the bidding of the U.S. government? This is just one example of dozens of times our government has done this around the world… One could argue that blackmail and coups (from Europe, to Africa, to South America, and US) are our #1 foreign/domestic policy strategy…👍 And everyone who opposes, or even questions, this strategy is told (by the Security State/Intelligence agencies) that they are echoing Russian propaganda- just like the Hunter laptop…blah blah blah… After constantly getting debunked, our intelligence agencies can only “go to the well” so many times before people start laughing at how much of a joke it has become…👍

“Business incubators”? What is this?

Maybe our LBs are too small…Edmonds never really had injury issues and he was a big dude…
