GET READY: ECONOMISTS ARE PREDICTING MAJOR INFLATION NOT SEEN IN DECADES IN MAJOR HIT ON U.S. ECONOMY


You weren’t one of those Americans who believed the Biden regime when they told us some weeks ago that “inflation is transitory,” were you?

Good, because the regime lied to us.

New figures (not including ‘volatile’ food and gasoline because those would make inflation numbers even worse) show that price hikes are real, and they’re spectacular.'Americans should brace themselves for several years of higher inflation than they've seen in decades, according to economists who expect the robust post-pandemic economic recovery to fuel brisk price increases for a while,' The Wall Street Journal reported.

'The respondents on average now expect a widely followed measure of inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy components, to be up 3.2% in the fourth quarter of 2021 from a year before. They forecast the annual rise to recede to slightly less than 2.3% a year in 2022 and 2023. That would mean an average annual increase of 2.58% from 2021 through 2023, putting inflation at levels last seen in 1993.'

I'm not saying hyperinflation is around the corner, just that a lot of things have come together in the last year, and the overall trend of costs across the board is growing faster than in the last five or 10 years.'

— Swift noted the havoc that inflation is having on the construction industry, saying: 'It's disruptive—you can't be sure of what your costs are, whether you can get supplies or what the costs will be six months from now. I'd hate to be in the construction business trying to bid on a job when you don't know what the cost of steel will be 18 months from now.'
CNN confessed that 'Americans have witnessed some wild price hikes over the past few months. Shortages and supply chain issues across the world have sent the cost to make and move goods soaring and...

  1. Notice that they say, (not including ‘volatile’ food and gasoline because those would make inflation numbers even worse) so what they're saying is still painting it much prettier than it is.

    They said "Meats, poultry, fish, and eggs, 0.1%" Anyone that goes shopping knows it's far, far more than that.
