Then why isn't inflation a huge problem in Switzerland?Covid messed up supply chains. Not that Covid is the only factor, mind. But it's not all to blame on Washington.

Why do you hate Milton Friedman?Then explain to me what's causes inflation.
Hint it isn't unions,greed,oil producers, corporations etc.
All economists agree that inflation is created by excess money supply and government spending.
I see you cherry picked Switzerland to make your point. Currently the Eurozone, Germany, UK, and the Netherland are all at 10%+. Amazing that those are all happening at the same time since there is no international influence.I'm talking about US inflation. All Bidens fault.
Inflation isn't an international thing. Eg Switzerland only has inflation of 3% .
I for one, am livid that Joe Biden is causing such inflation in the Netherlands. What a cnut!I see you cherry picked Switzerland to make your point.

It definitely makes sense to compare America to Switzerland, keep that one going.Then why isn't inflation a huge problem in Switzerland?
No. That's down to the clowns in the ECB who admitted they messed up.I for one, am livid that Joe Biden is causing such inflation in the Netherlands. What a cnut!
Really though, you can hardly blame the occassional troll in the CE forum. No place jumps on them like we do
We've had 14 years of quantitative easing.Then explain to me what's causes inflation.
Hint it isn't unions,greed,oil producers, corporations etc.

You can't make silly sweeping statements like inflation is ALL JOE BIDEN'S FAULT and all economists agree that government spend is the cause of inflation and then expect reasonable and nuanced debate debate. You are obviously not looking for that.No. That's down to the clowns in the ECB who admitted they messed up.

Wait, now it's the ECB? Janet Yellen (who has not been in the Fed since 2018)? I thought it was all Biden's fault?No. That's down to the clowns in the ECB who admitted they messed up.
https://ecaef.org/inflation-we-were-wrong/
That's simply not true. Many factors contribute to inflation, especially in this very specific economic environment.Inflation is made in one place and one only. Washington. Biden and the fed are to blame for inflation.
The only thing that can cause inflation is monetary policy and gov spend.
Turning this back on topic, I really want to know if this was a post by you in good faith or just part one of your troll the CE forum holiday.Tweet

Its absolutely disgraceful what went on pre the takeover. I hope the police have a full investigation.

Where is the Tesla factory?Wait, now it's the ECB? Janet Yellen (who has not been in the Fed since 2018)? I thought it was all Biden's fault?
You're a bit all over the place, and you're shooting yourself in the foot. When you mention the Fed and the ECB, that's monetary policy. If you want to blame the lax monetary policy since the financial crisis for the current levels on inflation, alright. Do you want to criticize them for their (lack of or slow) reaction to the rise of inflation? Ok. The Fed and the ECB are independent entities, Biden doesn't control either. So if you want to blame Biden by saying that this is because of the Fed, then you're wrong. You therefore have to allow for government spending to cause inflation, because you want to blame Biden:No. That's down to the clowns in the ECB who admitted they messed up.

I'm highlighting government spending here because you're opening the door to non-monetary sources of inflation. When you say that government spending can cause inflation, what you're saying is that government spending can increase demand, which can then cause inflation.Then explain to me what's causes inflation.

Oh dear.Inflation is made in one place and one only. Washington. Biden and the fed are to blame for inflation.

What evidence do you have that it wasn't?
When Elon brakes in a tesla do you also assume no one else ever slowed a car before?
Musk is taking a line straight out of the Q Anon/right wing mentalist playbook here. Barely stopping short of accusing the liberal elite of child sex trafficking. Obviously playing to his base (people like you) but a real worry considering the power he has in his current role.Tweet

Why wasn't this done before the takeover?
I think you have your answer. This feels like a new low for the Caf, but maybe I'm just naive.….. wait, you were joking, right?
An opinion piece which references a story they 'heard about' featuring John Doe#1 and John Doe#2 while painting Musk as a hero. Compelling stuff, tell me more.https://www.newsweek.com/while-blue...g-sexually-exploited-children-opinion-1761383
"Twitter refused to remove the illegal material and instead continued to promote and profit from the sexual abuse of the children," reads the lawsuit. Twitter even reported back to John Doe #1 that the video in question did not violate any of their policies.
Oh, you were actually serious...Tweet

That article itself says twitter was tackling it just not to the standard the writer would like. I'm not a twitter user but I had thought tweets had the report function for a very long time?https://www.newsweek.com/while-blue...g-sexually-exploited-children-opinion-1761383

they have an energy mix that means they're less exposed to oil and gas costsThen why isn't inflation a huge problem in Switzerland?
Elon invented brakes!!What evidence do you have that it wasn't?

That settles that then. No other possibilities for inflation exist. Got it.
Sept 28 (Reuters) - Some major advertisers including Dyson, Mazda, Forbes and PBS Kids have suspended their marketing campaigns or removed their ads from parts of Twitter because their promotions appeared alongside tweets soliciting child pornography, the companies told Reuters.An opinion piece which references a story they 'heard about' featuring John Doe#1 and John Doe#2 while painting Musk as a hero.

Excellent post. It's also worth noting that inflation can't be looked at as an insular phenomena. Many countries are experiencing inflation right now primarily as a result of the international dynamics of global aggregate supply, demand, and monetary policy.You're a bit all over the place, and you're shooting yourself in the foot. When you mention the Fed and the ECB, that's monetary policy. If you want to blame the lax monetary policy since the financial crisis for the current levels on inflation, alright. Do you want to criticize them for their (lack of or slow) reaction to the rise of inflation? Ok. The Fed and the ECB are independent entities, Biden doesn't control either. So if you want to blame Biden by saying that this is because of the Fed, then you're wrong. You therefore have to allow for government spending to cause inflation, because you want to blame Biden:
I'm highlighting government spending here because you're opening the door to non-monetary sources of inflation. When you say that government spending can cause inflation, what you're saying is that government spending can increase demand, which can then cause inflation.
You're saying that government spending can create a positive demand shock, shifting the AD curve outward. Of course, other things can shift the AD curve, which would then also cause changes in the price level, but that's not the most relevant part. As you can see, we have a supply thing going on as well here.
- What happens to the price level if the blue supply curve shifts inward?
- Can you think of any global factors the last two years that might have an impact on aggregate supply?

Unreal. His short resume on Wikipedia is quite something.Why are you posting tweets from a White Supremacist as if he's a trustworthy source of information?
I will have to research more on tariffs. Bidens continuing Trumps trade policy could also be a factor.That settles that then. No other possibilities for inflation exist. Got it.
I mean, he's fathered about half of them, so I guess it makes sense.It's crazy that Elon is the only one who seems to care about the kids.
This whole obsession with paedophilia is front and centre for right wing cranks at the moment. They’re weaponising it for political gain. Not ideal to see Musk has swallowed this agenda, hook line and sinker.It's crazy that Elon is the only one who seems to care about the kids.
While it's worrying that a member of the Caf seems to be engaging with or adhering to this guy, it's more troubling that the only people Elon Musk now engages with on Twitter are alt-right/white supremacist or similar individuals. He engages with vile racists in his mentions and takes their input as valid. It's incredibly dangerous for the wealthiest man in the world to be turning into Henry Ford.Unreal. His short resume on Wikipedia is quite something.
This is not the first time. Anyone alive in the US in the 80's will remember the Satanic Abuse "crisis" of the 80's and 90's, highlighted by the McMartin Preschool scandal. Nothing rials people up like the thought of their child being abused, it is why the tactic is so powerful, and so dangerous.This whole obsession with paedophilia is front and centre for right wing cranks at the moment. They’re weaponising it for political gain. Not ideal to see Musk has swallowed this agenda, hook line and sinker.
Are you serious right now? The current inflation is caused by a combination of post-COVID shipping issues and the Russian invasion which are massively disrupting global fuel prices and heavily driving global inflation. It has basically nothing to do with Biden at the moment. This is pretty much the consensus view.Then explain to me what's causes inflation.
Hint it isn't unions,greed,oil producers, corporations etc.

Would you rather have Boris Johnson or Elon Musk as your dad?I mean, he's fathered about half of them, so I guess it makes sense.

Please don’t rush to do it for my sake.I will have to research more on tariffs. Bidens continuing Trumps trade policy could also be a factor.
