I didnt think for myself like you did,,

I researched it and went out and sought a professionals opinion,,

Yet somehow despite all your research, you don’t have any idea how inflation is calculated.

Nope. You found a simplistic answer that satisfied your simplistic narrative.

Then you stopped thinking.

Merely asking questions that challenge your narrative.

Your failure to answer demonstrates your lack of critical thinking.

True. You lack the critical thinking and knowledge to come up with a narrative. That’s the narrative that conservatism requires you to adopt.

Even when it makes you look stupid.

That’s what it means to think for yourself.

You’ve not stated facts. You won’t even discuss how inflation is calculated.

You don’t know and you don’t want to know.

It’s frustrating to see someone so unwilling to think for themselves.

And sad to see them look so foolish doing so.

Overly simplistic. Good for a one liner but clearly not true in every circumstance.

I wouldn’t take that statement to be literally true. One can imagine many circumstances where inflation occurs that is not caused by monetary supply or government spending.

Please, spell out some of those circumstances.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Overly simplistic statements are easy to disprove.

There exists such a thing as supply shock.

What Is a Supply Shock and What Causes It?

A supply shock is an unexpected event that changes the supply of a product or commodity, resulting in a sudden change in its price.

I doubt he meant that literally but since he’s dead I can’t argue with him. There’s just you and as previously stated, you don’t know what you’re talking about.

A product or commodity, not all of them. DURR.

 

[Marener]

Please, spell out some of those circumstances.

Any kind of supply shock. For example when eggs were limited due to bird flu. A hack of energy companies shutting down refineries.

Inflation is the sum of all the changes. Inflation does not mean that every item has increased in cost.

Post your definition of inflation.

 

[Marener]

Post your definition of inflation.

Inflation is when things get more expensive. The real question is how you calculate it. Earlier I said it was simple and that was wrong. It’s far from simple. To start, people from the government literally go out and check the prices or products in stores.
