And yet the dollar is stronger than its ever been.
And the inflation is global. In fact? The U.S. is faring better than most other countries.
And inflation is even worse if you were using a deflationary currency like Bitcoin.
The fact that someone can go through the last few years and see inflation clearly driven by war, inflation clearly driven by supply chain problems due to COVID, inflation clearly driven by Brexit when looking at the UK, and comment “inflation is always and everywhere a result of printing” is just ideological blinkerism at its finest.
