Rand Paul report on inflation, it's going to get worse!

Yes.
The spending from Feb-Dec of 2020 was $3.3 trillion. If your argument is correct, shouldn't we have seen much higher inflation in 2020 than we are currently?

1) It takes time for government funds to move into the economy. It is not instant.
Or are you saying otherwise?
And the economy did not even start up again until Q3 2020.

I will ask again, simpler this time - has government spending over the ENTIRE last 80 years come remotely close to averaging over $2.6 trillion (inflation adjusted) per year - as it did in 2021?

Yes or no, please?

2) and what exactly is my 'argument' in this regard?
 
Yeah, only after everyone piled on top of you for it.

1) Then why did you type the following:

'No you didn't.

You didn't admit you were wrong...you said that you "weren't clear"...about what?'


When the post that you quoted had me saying I had 'wrongly' within it?

https://www.justplainpolitics.com/s...t-s-going-to-get-worse!&p=4905219#post4905219



2) So...you did not modify - IN ANY WAY - even one of the 8 posts your made that I quoted in Post 95 of this thread?

Yes or no?


You are making such an INSANE whacko of yourself on this ridiculously, childish point.
I KNOW YOU DID IT.
It's RIDICULOUSLY OBVIOUS, ignoramus.
All the links no longer work.


And I am NEVER going to let you forget it until you admit it.
You freak, whom wishes horrible deaths to specific people for mere political differences.
 
Maybe you like being in shit?

You drink piss, after all...

Skipped the questions again.

"Waaah waaahhh I want accommodation of my bad faith"

Thing is, sockey sockerson, when your demand for accommadation is met, as it was when I posted the thread of Anatta's mail ballot lies, you refuse to do any work for yourself.

So that's a bad habit of yours.

You stated at the beginning that "The Fed says that the current inflation is no longer 'transitory'."

But in the article you posted, Jerome Powell said that inflation WAS transitory because of supply side issues:

“I think what we missed about inflation,” Powell responded, “was we didn’t predict the supply-side problems, and those are highly unusual and very difficult, very non-linear, and it’s really hard to predict those things, but that’s really what we missed, and that’s why all of the professional forecasters had much lower inflation projections.”

And then your own source editorialized that he was blaming supply-side issues for it:

"Despite his attempt to blame high prices on supply chain backlogs"

When you were confronted with this, both by me and by Poor Richard Saunders, you refused to answer for yourself.

Instead, you said, very vaguely, "Oh, the end of my post was erroneous".

No..

Your WHOLE POST was erroneous.

Those are your words, man:

Wrong, actually.

The Fed says that the current inflation is no longer 'transitory'.

Have a nice day.

And what's even worse is that YOU MODIFIED THAT POST FOUR HOURS AFTER YOU MADE IT:

"Last edited by McRocket; Today at 10:29 AM."

So you lied when you said you didn't remember what you read from that Post link...you clearly did, which is why you altered your post four hours later.

And this comes after you screeched and whined and bleated and moaned about ME somehow changing or modifying my posts, when you did that very thing yourself at 10:30 this morning.

Do you really, truly think no one will bother to check the record?????
 
If that were the case, none of you clowns would be copying my zingers, mangling them, and vomiting them back out like some third-rate designer knockoff you'd see on Canal Street.

You are the one who changes 8 of your old posts to avoid answering simple questions/being proven wrong.

Now THAT is PATHETIC.
 
And what's even worse is that YOU MODIFIED THAT POST FOUR HOURS AFTER YOU MADE IT:

I freely admit I modified it.
I made a mistake and I wanted to rectify it.
So I did.

You see...I have the maturity to admit when I make a mistake.

Unlike you.
You changed EIGHT of your posts.
And you do not have the courage to admit you did it.

Now that is BIZARRE behavior.

:laugh:

1) Then why did you type the following:

'No you didn't.

Yeah, you started backtracking the moment I held your claim to scrutiny.

A claim that you modified and altered 4 hours after originally posting it.

Check the thread.

So that also sounds like a violent threat, so I'm going to report it and send it to the FBI and they can deal with you.


Yeah, I'm sure they'll be real interested in how crackers in Florida have to kill and have killed a lot of snakes. :laugh:

What about gators, though? :eek:
 
I already said that what I originally stated at the end of my post was erroneous.
https://www.justplainpolitics.com/s...t-s-going-to-get-worse!&p=4904834#post4904834
That the Fed did not say 'most of....'.
I had read that article a while ago and wrongly recalled that the Fed had said something else.
But the rest of it was accurate.

So...what's your problem?


And when are you going to answer my other question to you?

Let's look at your clarification where you claim you corrected your mistake.

Wow...you really freak out easily. You must not be a very happy person.

1) the above was my mistake...I should have been clearer.

What I meant was that the inflation causes are now mostly NOT being caused by supply-side problems due to economic recovery from the Covid Depression.
But due to systemic weaknesses brought on by government lockdowns/Covid-19 meddling all over the world.

You clearly claim that inflation is NOT being caused by supply-side problems. You do understand the meaning of the word "not", correct?.

Let's compare that to the quotes you used from Powell
'Generally, the higher prices we’re seeing are related to the supply and demand imbalances that can be traced directly back to the pandemic and the reopening of the economy,” he said. “But it’s also the case that price increases have spread much more broadly in the recent few months across the economy, and I think the risk of higher inflation has increased.”
That quote doesn't support your claim. In fact it would seem to indicate your claim to be false. 'Generally, the higher prices we’re seeing are related to the supply and demand imbalances' clearly means that the higher prices are related to the the supply-side issues. That doesn't make it the only reason as evidenced by the rest of his statement. So Powell is saying part of the inflation we are seeing is due to supply side issues but that is not the only factor. "Generally" is a qualifier that would seem to indicate that the majority of the inflation is coming from the supply side issues. Your claim is not supported by Powell unless one completely ignores how the English language is generally interpreted.

As to your original post where you claimed the Fed said inflation was no longer transitory. That statement is no true either.
Wrong, actually.

The Fed says that the current inflation is no longer 'transitory'.

https://nypost.com/2021/11/30/jerome-powell-its-time-to-retire-term-transitory-inflation/ Your link doesn't support that claim either. Instead there is an exchange where Powell says transitory means different things to different people so maybe they should retire the term. That is not the same thing as him stating inflation is no longer transitory. So the NYPost headline is highly misleading when it says "Jerome Powell suggests it’s time to stop describing inflation as ‘transitory’ ." It seems you didn't read past the headline. Powell didn't say that inflation is no longer transitory, he said that the word transitory shouldn't be used when describing inflation because it confuses people.
 
You are the one who changes 8 of your old posts to avoid answering simple questions/being proven wrong.

I didn't change any of my posts, much less 8 of them.

And if I did alter them, they would say something like..."Last edited by McRocket; Today at 10:29 AM", like you did when you changed your post at 10:30 this morning, after posting it at 6:30 this morning.

Why did you alter your post four hours after? Because you were getting shit for it.
 
I freely admit I modified it.

Sure, NOW you do, that you've been called to the mat for it.

So this is just like you saying you were erroneous in the last part of your post, and thinking you deserve some kind of credit for acknowledging something that has already been pointed out to you.

Like...seriously...you think you deserve credit for admitting you were wrong after everyone already told you?????

And you don't even know what you were wrong about!

What is it that you think you said in error?

Sorry...I don't believe you.
But if you did not change them?
Then why do you refuse to answer the questions?
Because you are gutless.

Here they are again...answer them or stop wasting my time:

1) So you are actually saying that if someone says 'I don't care if you believe me'?

That automatically means they must be lying?

Yes or no, please?


2) https://www.justplainpolitics.com/sh...09#post4904709

From above - 'That is NOT 'precisely' (word-for-word) what I typed.

Once again...where did Powell say 'precisely' what I did.
Precisely means 'exactly'.

So...can you post a link to prove that Powell said 'PRECISELY/word-for-word' what I typed'?
Yes or no, please?


3) you said:
'Nice to know you will never hold yourself to any standard on JPP or elsewhere.'
https://www.justplainpolitics.com/sh...38#post4904838

(i) Where is your link to unbiased, factual proof of this?
(ii)Or did you just make it up?

(i) or (ii)?


4) Really?
You KNOW this?
https://www.justplainpolitics.com/sh...91#post4904891

Can you post a link that proves that I have posted on this site before December of 2021?

Yes or no, please?


5) Your post - 'What is 100% clear is McRocket has no fucking clue what he's talking about.

Stimulus didn't cause inflation, the pandemic did because of the havoc it wreaked on supply chains and shipping containers.

McRocket is a partisan hack who wants to blame all his poor decisions and instincts on Joe Biden'.
https://www.justplainpolitics.com/sh...09#post4904909

b) Where is your link to unbiased, factual proof that 'stimulus did not cause inflation'?

6) 'No, Powell didn't say the words YOU CLAIM HE DID.'
https://www.justplainpolitics.com/sh...07#post4904907

And where EXACTLY did I claim that Powell said an EXACT statement that I attributed to him...that he did - in fact - not say?


7) ' This isn't my first rodeo and you're not half as clever as you think you are.'
https://www.justplainpolitics.com/sh...19#post4904919

And where is the post I made that stated how clever I think I am?


8) 'You said at the start that supply-side issues weren't the cause of inflation,'
https://www.justplainpolitics.com/sh...77#post4904877

Where EXACTLY did I type that 'supply-side issues were not the cause of inflation?

I said they are not - at present - the principle cause.
I said nowhere that there nothing to do with inflation.

So...where did I type what you are accusing me of typing?
 
I made a mistake and I wanted to rectify it.

You don't even know what mistake you made, pal!

The first mistake you made was claiming the Fed said current inflation isn't transitory.

That was a mistake on your part because you misread the NY Post link.

You only corrected yourself after several posts of you being defensive, and only when it became too impossible or difficult for you to defend.

You don't get credit for that, you only get derision.
 
Let's look at your clarification where you claim you corrected your mistake.



You clearly claim that inflation is NOT being caused by supply-side problems.

If my admittance of a mistake is not good enough for you...for some bizarre reason.
Tough.
I am done with you on it.

Now...

Here is what I typed that you quoted.

'What I meant was that the inflation causes are now mostly NOT being caused by supply-side problems due to economic recovery from the Covid Depression.
But due to systemic weaknesses brought on by government lockdowns/Covid-19 meddling all over the world.'


So...you are claiming that I said that 'inflation is NOT being caused by supply-side problems'?

True or false?
