    Economists Say Inflation, Deficits Will Be Higher Under Trump Than
    Harris

    In WSJ survey, economists see Donald Trump's plans as more
    inflationary by a larger margin than in July when President Biden was
    on the ticket

    Updated Oct. 14, 2024

    WASHINGTON--Most economists think inflation, interest rates and
    deficits would be higher under the policies former President Donald
    Trump would pursue in a second administration than under those
    proposed by Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a quarterly
    survey by The Wall Street Journal.

    Starting to feel like we're about to find out, aren't we.

    Welp America - Democracy is the theory that Americans know what's best
    and deserve to get it good and hard. Bend over, America.

    Several factors can bring about inflation, but sooner or later,
    deficit spending will ramp up inflation.

    I quizzed a younger person the other day, and he was clueless as to
    why inflation happens. So, he blames the current POTUS.

    Ignorance is the problem, and many people are in the same boat.

    Wise man! It is due to Xidenomics. Trump will fix that. We must pray hard,
    and once he is coronated, the world will finally know eternal peace!

    I 100% agree. So, it seems the political and financial elite have done
    a successful job of undermining public schools and dumbing the public
    down to the point where they can be conveniently manipulated with cheap
    slogans and empty promises. Well done.

    "Make Americans Gargle Ass" is I think what it stands for?

    Sidebar: Paul Krugman


    Is Elon Musk implicitly proposing large cuts to SS and Medicare? Or
    just ignorant of the reality that you can't cut federal spending by a
    third without touching the biggest budget items? My guess is that he
    really is that ignorant
