Worse Than Expected,’ Inflation May Be Coming

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 5/7/2021 11:22:30 AM

With the creation of multiple vaccines in historic time, the COVID-19 pandemic seemed close to being over, paving the way for rapid economic growth. Unfortunately, the economy appears to be struggling under Joe Biden, based on the latest jobs report released Friday morning. The unemployment was expected to fall to 5.8% and the economy was predicted to add 978,000 jobs, but that didn’t happen despite mass vaccinations and government stimulus…. not by a long shot. “The numbers are out, and on the top line they are way worse than expected,” reported Bloomberg. “Something seems very off:

One thing is for sure. It will ALL be blamed on Trump. Of course the 4-6 Trillion dollar Biden spending spree and the XL pipeline shut down didn't help - - - but it's all Trumps fault.

Stop paying people to stay at home and the numbers will go back up out of necessity. Help wanted signs are everywhere but no one thinks they should make entry level wages for entry level work.

Inflation MAY be coming ? If you liked the Carter years, gasoline line ups, 15% mortgages, you are going to LOVE Biden. If you're younger than 50 you may have to Google Carter.

Biden & Democrats will now claim that more stimulus like the American Jobs Bill and his Infrastructure Bill are needed more than ever now. Too much stimulus money will cause inflation. The jobs bill will create very few jobs that would not have been created anyway. The infrastructure bill has very little in the way of actual infrastructure in it. It does have a lot of social programs and social engineering in it. They will spend a lot of money to look like they are doing something but will actually do little to nothing to improve the lives of people it pretends to help. But, it will make liberals feel good about themselves.

Lock in those mortgage rates. Get you auto while you can. Interest rates will have to increase. As #1 said, beyond Jimmy Carter bad. The belt tightening that President Reagan did sent interest rates as high as they ever were until the economy got back on its feet. It was painful for borrowers, but a bounty for savers. I remember my grandmother getting CDs that were anywhere from 17%-22% rate of return. Then, sanity returned. It was painful as hell though.

I think a lot of employers run help wanted ads just in case a potentially great employee is out so they can snag him or her. Also, there is always natural employee turnover too - people moving, pregnancies, illnesses, even deaths create unexpected job openings. Few companies actually want to expand payrolls with massive tax hikes and regulations in the pipeline.

Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has revealed he has Asperger's syndrome while appearing on the US comedy sketch series Saturday Night Live (SNL). The 49-year-old told viewers he was "the first person with Asperger's" to host the long-running programme - to loud cheers from the audience. People with Asperger's interpret the environment around them differently to other people. It is thought to be the first time Mr Musk has spoken about his condition. The tech boss was guest hosting the sketch show - a coveted role that has been filled by an array of celebrities since SNL's inception in the 1970s. These include Adele, Chris Rock, Ringo Starr, and Will Ferrell.

It’s not getting much play right now, but Canada is an absolute mess. In some parts of the country, the tyrannical mitigation measures put in place by the government to supposedly combat COVID-19 are so bad that they’d make New York blush. A dramatic new video has just been released by independent, conservative journalist Ezra Levant of Rebel News showing the arrest of a Christian pastor for “inciting” people to go to church. Apparently, a SWAT team was used to arrest him after he left his church service. The churchgoers had initially expelled the police from the church building, but they returned in force.

Going back to the late 1920s, every single child raised in America has intersected in some way with products from Walt Disney: We’ve watched the movies and TV shows, sung the songs, worn the clothes, and visited the theme parks. Through it all, Disney stood for wholesome family entertainment. That is no longer the case. Disney is a hardcore leftists corporation that is pushing its politics on children and training its employees to be white-hating racists or self-loathing white people. It’s time to give up Disney.

KABUL, Afghanistan — A bomb exploded near a girl’s school in a majority Shiite district of west Kabul on Saturday, killing at least 30 people, many them young pupils between 11 and 15 years old, Afghan government spokesmen said. The Taliban condemned the attack apparently aimed at civilians, and denied any responsibility. The explosion is being investigated, said Interior Ministry spokesman Tariq Arian who added the death toll could rise further. Ambulances were rushing to evacuate wounded from the scene of the blast near Syed Al-Shahda school, in the Shiite majority neighborhood of Dasht-e-Barchi, Interior Ministry spokesman Tariq Arian said.

"Now more than ever, we need policies that bring us closer together – not rip us apart. As governor, I firmly believe that not one cent of taxpayer money should be used to define and divide young Oklahomans by their race or sex," Stitt, a Republican, said in a statement obtained by the Washington Examiner. The measure prohibits schools from teaching students that "one race or sex is inherently superior to another" and that "an individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, is inherently racist

LONDON — Britain's governing Conservative Party made further inroads in the north of England on Friday, winning a special election in the post-industrial town of Hartlepool for a parliamentary seat that the main opposition Labour Party had held since 1974. Managing to present themselves as the party of change despite having led the U.K. for 11 years, Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Conservatives extended their grip on parts of England that had been Labour strongholds for decades, if not a century. Many of these seats that have flipped from red to blue voted heavily in 2016 for Britain’s departure from the European Union.

On Wednesday, Rep. Mark Green (R-TN), a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and a combat veteran, introduced new legislation to ban critical race theory (CRT) from being taught at military service academies. “Critical Race Theory is based on a massive and purposeful misunderstanding of the American founding, American history, and America as it exists today,” Green said in a press statement. “This is a Marxist ideology created to tear American institutions down. It teaches Americans and members of the Armed Services to judge one another by the color of their skin instead of by the ‘content of their character.’

The Tennessee General Assembly has banned the teaching of critical race theory, passing a law at the very end of the legislative session to withhold funding from public schools that teach about white privilege. Republicans in the House made the legislation a last-minute priority, introducing provisions that ban schools from instructing students that one race bears responsibility for the past actions against another, that the United States is fundamentally racist or that a person is inherently privileged or oppressive due to their race. Similar proposals surfaced in other states this year, including one in Idaho that has been signed into law by the governor. Texas Republicans

Not only was it bad, it was so much lower than what they’d predicted it would be, Axios described it as the biggest miss in the history of the report. Their reactions to it immediately showed they had no understanding of what the problem was or why it was so bad — that at least in part, one has to consider that people are not returning to work because of the extension of the unemployment benefits.
