Wow, Now Even CBS Is Realizing There Is No Inflation From Tariffs

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

LOL, typical internet tough guy.

your only success is probably moving into your mom's basement.

Marty, I am sorry you are a loser. I have done very well due to hard work, solid education, and some good fortune.

Don't resent your betters.

Well then just don't care and not post bs.

I wanted that watch for my birthday, but will go without, because there is no way in hell I'm paying that $600 on top.

You do realize if the greatest complaint you can come up with is Swiss luxury watches, you are making our point for us. Obviously things aren't so bad if you must dig into a niche realm to pull examples.

The only thing you are better than is Moroner, and that isn't saying much.

The persona you project on this board is of a useless credentialed SJW drone.

Trump broad tarrifs went into effect in April (what administration called Liberation Day)

Comodity inflation minus food and energy since then has gone up up and up every month, reaching 3.1% in July.

The only thing causing only moderate increases in CPI is fall of speculative oil prices based on the weak consumer demand outlook.

We will see in over a week if this is so.

Powell said that tariffs are pushing inflation. Clear as day.

But the rubes have been told that Powell is an evil commie who hates America, so he must have been lying.

When are you going to start using that 'solid education' to make a legitimate point? The fact remains, months of doom and gloom BlueAnon conspiracy theories have not materialized. Instead the only lame example is a niche luxury item with limited production that does not impact the nation as a whole. It does however highlight the elitist liberal attitude that lost you folks the working class. Good job!

Yet the highest inflation this century occurred without said tariffs, thanks to Biden and friends. There is valid reason for skepticism, particularly given Powell's favorable actions towards the last administration that did not appear to follow historic norms.

Lol ok self proclaimed rich upper class lol

It was Marty that accused me of being "upper class twit" for god forbid bring up the astronomical price increase Trump has caused on what is essentially an upper-middle-class priced swiss watch.


And so I have a question for you: What would you have to post if not for constant bullshit?

 

[martybegan]

Oh c'mon he's upper class

Like this?

 

[struth]

Dumbass do you understand there is difference between inflation soaring and NO inflation at all?

Inflation is up, even if not soaring yet.

No inflation at all wouldn't be a good thing, that would mean a deflation, which happens often in a depression.

Inflation is suppose to be around the 2 percent range.

Inflation today, is lower then what Trum inherited from Xiden in Jan.

12-month percentage change, Consumer Price Index, selected categories

You mad now "lower class"? LoL

Marty, stop being an underclass twit, please.

It's 2.7% CPI and 3.1% for commodities minus food and energy in July, all up since April and heading in the wrong direction.

You mad now "lower class"? LoL

....how am I mad at lower class? Wtf are you saying?

I forgot the comma, think hard

A duty is a fee. There is a difference.

Just like a sales tax, except its at the federal level.

um, it was 3.0% CPI in Jan, so, you know it's lower now, right?

It's a fee, similar but not the same.
