Try not to stroke to that picture of Trump you have too hard you are bound to get chaffing. Maybe you are just practicing Mini Strokes (get it), in fact, you and Trump may have something in common. Bah, who am I kidding of course the double meaning to that joke is lost on Elizondo's understanding.

Speaking of something Elizondo won't even hope to understand:

Now,

Lets give the real explanation for the inflation into a short compact video.

Wrong again. About everything. As usual.
I am quite aware of the silicon shortage. But you aren't aware of basic economics.

Chip shortage is also causing an increase in gas prices?
Chip shortage is also causing an increase in food prices?

Most things are getting more expensive. Learn economics, fool. Try again.

Lol, "raising minimum wage will fix rising prices", that one really got me in my funny bone. Can only see Botten messages that are quoted. Every time it makes me thankful I blocked him.

First I don’t really care if Castle ignores me. Often he gives off feelings of a conMan; a used car salesman with get rich schemes. His account is fairly old been probably pedaling them for sometime while telling others to join him. Pyramid

I too was Skeptical until I saw the wages of those paid in the past and the wealth distribution of the past.

For example boomers have no problem owning a home and paying for their education.
An education equals more often a larger salary.
But what if the larger salaries of the past were worth more than majority of the larger wages paid out today.

In 1972 $6 dollars an hour paid to a simple construction worker was equivalent to $39 an hour today.

https://www.in2013dollars.com/us/inf...1972?amount=39

Year after year the Inequality of Wealth distribution of the rich and the poor is getting larger and larger

https://rwer.wordpress.com/2018/11/1...united-states/

Usually It is advantageous for workers to get an education. This is why social programs for education are funded. IE Putting money in to educating your workers yields more wealth for the rich.

https://www.epi.org/publication/stat...h-foundations/

The economy is self healing and the minimum wage does need to go up.

And even without the minimum wage increase.

Salaries are already on the rise and they are the new norm. Starbucks by next year will be paying a new Barista $23 an hour.

https://chainstoreage.com/starbucks-...ing-recruiters

Until the lower class is paid more of a fare share the inflation will keep growing and will not settle.

Those with rich retirement savings just expect what you have to be worth less as it should rightly go to the newer generation that has been robbed year over year by the older generation.

There is a bit to unpack up there but I really should be working in the lab and may come back to this.

Video is accurate up to about 30 seconds.

Then he says "great resignation" (myth) and supply chain (not the biggest driver of cost of goods increases.)

In typical charlatan fashion he:
  1. Successfully identifies a real and felt problem using solid facts
  2. Jumps to conclusion on the causes of the problem and the solution - both which are total BS

Another gem

Quote:
Higher prices... actually affect the ultra-wealthy the most
LOL.

Who spends a larger portion of their income on gas, food, and other daily necessities? The poor or the ultra-wealthy?

Who holds a larger portion of their wealth in cash instead of assets? The poor or the ultra-wealthy?

Inflation drives up prices of scarce assets. These assets are typically owned by... the poor or the ultra-wealthy?

Who does inflation really hurt more? *facepalm*

Later he goes to admit the wealthy have increased their net worth and are buying stocks... This man successfully talked out of both sides of his mouth to declare he is an imbecile. Well done.

Nothing against the ultra-wealthy, I'm on my way to joining the gang. I am against inflation. It hurts people on fixed incomes and people on lower incomes.
