On Friday’s “PBS NewsHour,” New York Times columnist David Brooks stated that we are “probably overheating” the economy and causing inflation, but he has “high tolerance for inflation in this kind of economy. Because I think we need it as a society to heal.”

The elites in our country are absolutely killing us. They must be neutralized once and for all so we can start over.

I get it now - doubling the money I pay at the pump and for food and electricity is an act of healing. I feel much better now. Think how great I’m going to feel when I’m broke, freezing, and starving!

Making the mediocre and poor even more mediocre and poorer.

He’s always been stupid.
Their whole show with Shields was so pathetic in 2008 I never watched it again.
And turned it off quickly back then.

That’s right you private sector peons, paying nearly double for everything since the rigged stolen election, is a healing process for you.

These people never studied economics.
The theories they put forward have never worked in the real world.

More proof (if needed) that there is no such thing as a Democrat who understands anything at all about economics.

Inflation used to be too many employers chasing too few employees with the government printing more money to try to hold off the moment when some employers had to drop out of the bidding and go out of business.
Now you also have government bidding more for many to be non-employees and simultaneously causing supply shocks in energy production, thus increasing inflation from at least three directions at once. That's not healing, that's economic suicide.

If inflation is needed to somehow “heal” then should we go back to applying live leaches on our skin?
Ayurvedic alternate medicine from India includes several remedies including drinking urine mixed with herbs and salts. Depending upon your “dosha” (your ratio of vata, kapha, and pitta defining your body type).

That is the second incredibly stupid quote I’ve read today. The other was about Ebola-strength Covid or some such nonsense.

In other words we need to enrich government leeches at the expense of everyone who has done anything besides pi$$ all of their earnings away on hookers and blow.
