The smugness of liberals, a classic.

Kelly, nooo!! 
Oh no, i failed to think about how the libs are going to simp for biden extra hard this year
Hey, if we're lucky this might at least give us another four years to pack our shit and leave until the 'more competent fascist' steps in.....
Who am I kidding? Biden is the more competent fascist. He literally has the public begging for MORE austerity, moving MORE to the right, and they want to vote him out because he's not fascist enough. That's a more competent fascist if I ever heard one.
I think we'll be talking about the 2021-2022 inflation for the rest of our lives as the COVID era is incorporated into textbooks etc. Fundamentally it was a supply shock from the initial wave of tightening in 2020. I believe doing nothing would've gotten us the same result with inflation "plummeting" to 3.2% YoY as supply caught up with the disruption. Increasing interest rates is simply bloodletting that hasn't killed us yet - quacks are patting themselves on the back but we're not out of their grasp yet. Sometime in the future the intervention will be disproven.
I laugh at those who think that our government gives the slightest shit about them and their wellbeing as citizens.
To mis-quote Bill Clinton. "It's the inflation, stupid."

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
