Biden Regime's economic policy: completely wrong

The author does make one glaring mistake when it says that "inflation is the result of demand exceeding supply." It is not. Inflation is caused by printing money and the devaluation of existing money by the government. You get rising prices and/or supply shortages if it is just a result of demand exceeding supply. The difference is whether the rising prices affect only certain products and services or the entire economy. Inflation affects the entire economy - the laws of supply and demand apply to specific goods/services.

The author isn't wrong, however, when he says that the problem lies in the crushing energy prices and government handouts. Those two factors are economic killers but combined with a failure to protect our borders, rampant crime which goes unprosecuted, and a thoroughly corrupt administrative state all bode ill for the future of this nation.

    All the "wars" have been failures since 1945, both military and peaceful.
    The federal government has destroyed American prosperity at every turn in order to reward themselves and the companies that help to increase government power.

    How about the reparations, Even Detroit MI is discussing the implementation of hand outs. The 25 trillion spent on the "war on poverty" clearly is not enough to keep a segment of the populace happy. Our national debt would be manageable and inflation reasonable if not for this waste of money.
