#Inflation soared under President #Biden in 2021 & 2022, as the #economy emerged from the #pandemic recession [that began under Trump]. Its causes were complex, including snarled #SupplyChains, stimulative policies by the #FederalReserve &, to a degree, federal fiscal policies incl’ing #Covid relief bills signed by #Trump &…Biden.

Erwartete Zinssenkung: "EZB spielt Inflationsgefahr herunter"

Obwohl die Inflation im Mai wieder angezogen hat und sich hartnäckig hält, wird die Europäische Zentralbank wohl heute die Leitzinsen senken. Kritiker halten den Schritt für verfrüht. Klaus-Rainer Jackisch erklärt, welche Risiken drohen.

From ChartR:
"...the majority of Americans believe the nation is currently in a recession (it’s not), 49% think the S&P 500 is down for the year (it’s up 11%), and the same percentage believe unemployment is at a 50-year high (again, it’s not).

...if a significant number of Americans feel the economy isn’t working for them, we have to ask: what’s going on?

The simplest explanation is that most of us are bad at gauging [economics]. ...We focus on our own...situation — and on a personal level, many people are feeling the strain b/c of the one elephant in the room...inflation. Indeed, a Gallup poll from March found that inflation continued to outrank crime, healthcare, terrorism, energy, the environment, drug use, and...other topics as America’s top concern...."

No, the main reason is GOP disinformation - to protect Wall St, get rid of regulations, and deny climate collapse.

Just wait till they see what crop failures will do to food prices.
