Bloomberg News reports: Summers Faults Biden for Tying Inflation to Putin, Company Greed. Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers criticized the Biden administration’s emphasis on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and on price gouging by companies in ascribing causes for the surge in U.S. inflation.

You have to admit,

 

(and as the whole thread shows)

 

That inflation has been rising before, during, and will be after Biden's response to "Putin's war"

Yes, but Putin's war made it way worse. 

 

Also, kind of strange that the Saudis are not helping us by pumping more oil. Is there a foreign policy problem here? The GOP and the dictators conspiring to raise prices?

I blame inflation on what covid did to the world economy , destroyed the supply chain and causing millions to retire or leave the job market.  25 million in Shanghai  locked down today will hurt the supply chain even more.

Oil prices have been in a steady rise since Biden took office.  His first action was to cancel Keystone.  If he didn't that pipeline would be in production today and the price shock to crude would have been much less to perhaps nothing.  And also to align with activists pressuring banks to withdraw or withhold capital from the oil & gas exploration and development sector.  Then informing the industry their services will no longer be needed in the near future.  Who would invest given those conditions?  Now Congress is doing their standard "not my fault" grilling of industry executives.  Its a real hoot.

If the administration was more focused on  long term strategic planning, like our enemies are, instead of appeasing the fringe left we wouldn't be in the current mess.   My advice is to build more solar panels and pray for sunny days.

Might be better to pump more here rather than rely on others. Not sure why it’s ok to buy but not produce. I’m sure in some unusual minds this line of thinking makes me a Putin apologist in one way or another.

Or move quicker on green energy. Yes, we can step up the pumping here, too. Those stopped because of low prices in the past

How much did Keyston's death cause oil prices to rise?

I was simply copying Tibsy's "you have to admit" from the start of his post.

 

As you say, I certainly did not expect him to admit to anything, but divert.

 

And I was correct.

Is this dipshlt comparing 2021 profits from 2020 full on pandemic profits?  

[B-Man]

2020: "Inflation is Trump's fault!"

2021: "Inflation is transitory."
2021: "Inflation is actually a good thing!"

2022: "Inflation is Putin's fault."
