It has nice bar graphs

And doesn’t have Trumps data but it wouldn’t help the bigger picture

That jobs and the GDP are better while D’S are in office not always by a lot . But clearly it’s not what you think

sorry, unemployment was just this low when trump
was in office and it didn’t take 9% inflation to accomplish. And GDP growth isn’t good, when again,it’s all
due to once in 30 year inflation.

nice try. the lips are clear in america’s view of democrat economic policies. The fact that you don’t like the result of those pills doesn’t change them.

40-year inflation is high... then you must also know that corporate profits are at a 50-year high.
Hmmm

At least the value of the dollar is going down to help balance things out.

Isn't one factor in inflation caused by rising prices?

if the price increases are nothing more than price gouging, yes. if the price increases are a function of wholesale costs going up, then the answer is more complicated. in that case,,the root cause is whatever is causing prices to go up.

Which do you think it is?

a variety of things. covid, the fed, supply chains, fewer workers, retirements, fewer immigrants, companies seeing other companies getting increases so they think they can get them, people buying goods instead of trips/services, etc.

Did someone else just post this question as you didn't throw around insults?
