We don’t have inflation, but food is up 45%, meat is double.

Gas is up $2.

Clothing is way up for much cheaper made Chinese goods and cheap threads.

BUT, we have no inflation?

Russia, China...What about domestic socialism? You can’t have a $15 minimal wage unless your dollar is as cheap as peso.

“Inflation is obviously contributing to the ... rapid rise in food and energy prices”

DUH
Inflation IS a rise in prices.

There are a lot of contributing factors but the bottom line is that the US got rich rebuilding the rest of the civilized world after WW II.

But the party’s over.

Would that be a positive or negative for the dollar?

obama grew up with people that told him “White America” raped and pillaged the world. He had a long time to contemplate how “White America” would be corrected and made to pay for it’s “crimes”.

No clue. All I know is that he and his doings can have an effect on the currency market.

On the bright side, once we’re destroyed, people will stop immigrating here and maybe even go home. After all, if we’re just as poor as Mexico, and colder, why stay?

I’ll be in Greece again in a couple of weeks and will see how we will look soon.
Was there before and a third worked the real world, a third were on the dole and a third did noting getting paid in government jobs. Kind of a lot like California.

I knew we were in trouble especially in CA when I stopped in Tunisia Africa and told them how much we paid in taxes and they felt sorry for us. They had a revolution over taxes going up to 11% from 5.5%.
CA you have 10% in just sales tax. You can give the majority of your pay in taxes to the government and so on.

So IMO part if the USA dollar death bed is what the growing government has done to force the need to remove many more dollars from the pockets of families in order to sustain it’s behemoth size.

So far the rumor on Soros is pretty contained. Coming from some people clued into European dealings. Not finding much on it yet.

When the world stops trading oil in dollars we are toast. I think that is coming soon.

As the media would define it borrowing money from countries is the only way Obama can make the country stronger with the help of illegals.
