Let's fix inflation by raising the prices for everything

4 years of the worst inflation in US history driving the price of everything up, while the fed hands over hundreds of billions to foreign governments, and slowing oil drilling, and ordering livestock to be killed, all for no reason

this is fine chud, just learn to code or something. the economy is fine because mr shekelstein is the expert and he said so, you're probably just broke because you're an inbred redneck. should have gone to college, teehee!

okay for these 4 years we're going to implement some protectionist policies which could affect prices in the short term but will eventually boost domestic industry and raise wages to cancel it out, and in the meanwhile we're going to deport all the illegal aliens that have been driving wages lower so some of the stuff companies have been paying them pennies to harvest or manufacture could also raise in price before they start hiring actual americans at fair wages

WHAT THE FUCKING FUCKKKKK!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS LITERALLY THE MOST INSANE ECONOMIC POLICY EVER IMAGINED, THE WORLD IS GOING TO END!!!! EVERY COUNTRY THAT HAS EVER TRIED TO IMPLEMENT TARIFFS OR STOP ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION HAS BEEN DESTROYED BY NUCLEAR HELLFIRE 2 MINUTES AFTER!!!! WHAT HAPPENED TO GROCERY PRICES, CHUD?? YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO LOWER MY GROCERY BILLS AFTER I CAMPAIGNED TO MAKE IT LEGAL FOR MINORITIES TO KILL YOU!!!!!

I don't care about gdp, please cry about it

years of the worst inflation in US history
immediate obvious bold faced lie, stopped reading there

Republicans are bad-faith, bald-faced liars. That's the party identity. If you're not a fucking liar and you're conservative, you're a RINO. What else is new?

The meme works but the format is so tired, uncreative, and unoriginal.

No the robots are like this too
Go talk to this chrischen chadptg bot:

Okay now do demonrats

I'm moving to Thailand at the end of the year. Any country in SEA would be ideal. Maybe not Laos or Malaysia if you don't wanna be bored outta your mind. Singapore is pretty shitty too. But Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Philippines, and Indonesia are all pretty valid. Beautiful women (excluding Indonesia), beautiful weather and scenery, good nightlife (excluding Cambodia), and its so fucking cheap there.

What caused the inflation we need to fix?

Democrats are the Stupid party Republicans are the Evil party
Choosing Kamala Harris was stupid. Choosing Donald Trump was evil

Based future Thailandbro

I'm that guy from the other thread

tfw no Paetongtarn gf

trump did

Why do rightoids feel the need to make a shitty pun out of every word they can think of? Does it make you feel clever or something?

prices are dropping

implying any price raising due to tariffs won't decrease national debt and therefore inflation

implying industry won't just come to the US ti avoid tariffs, leading to more jobs and less expensive products

implying the absolutely massive amounts of cost-cutting going on under the current administration won't lead to people being richer

The amount of nonsense cope is absolutely wild. Trump and his admin are doing basically everything people have been calling on for the country to do for years.

less global interferance

more self sufficiency

cutting out beureaucracy

stopping the immigration crisis

Hey delete this!

NO WAY IT WAS OBONGO

Why yes, keeping third worlders enslaved overseas and America dependant on foreign nations for manufacturing is a good thing

covid happens

prices decrease

liquid money increases

biden takes office

prices soar

liquid money decreases

prices continue to soar

liquid money lower than pre-covid

prices continue to stay high

trump takes office

prices decrease

The axis on this chart seems very strange. 12-month rate of change %?

raising prices is going to solve inflation, I swear

reddit said breathing good so I'm going to stop-ACK

Why yes, keeping third worlders enslaved overseas and America dependant on foreign nations for manufacturing is a good thing

I mean, it's what made you guys an economic and military superpower. Would you rather somebody else reap those benefits?

being the world's largest importer that suddenly cripples imports for no reason won't have any repercussions, Fox News told me so

Huge tariffs have been just a shit idea historically. What do you know about Herbert Hoover's tariffs? Nothing I assume.

too stupid for Anon Babble

too stupid to realize inflation is caused my money supply

too stupid to understand how tariffs actually work

Glowie, glowie shining bright
Light a beacon in the night
Glowie, glowie go away
You aint getting paid today

The reason those jobs are overseas is because they ruin the fucking environment and cause health problems. Kekkyroooooooooo

go to grocery store

eggs are still $9.99

Do Trump shills think that if they lie hard enough reality will magically change to fit their narrative?

Do they think that when they say retarded crap like ACKTUALLY DA PRICES IS FALLING!!! That people can't see right through that every time they go to buy something?

What has changed?

2% of the grift has ended

Stop crying

Then why do China and the EU have huge tariffs?
How did the USA have budget surpluses when we had zero income tax but did have tariffs?

The only thing I've seen go down is gas by 10 pennies

genuinely insane shit here in east europe we have analysts on tv going shizo trying to explain what trump is doing and why.

on one of the smaller channels they just gave up and called in a priest to say its probably american freemasons trying to kill european globalists and everyone in the studio nodded.

Then why do China and the EU have huge tariffs?

Now? China's import tariffs are going down yearly. They were at 2.3% two years ago.

How did the USA have budget surpluses when we had zero income tax but did have tariffs?

Time frame? When did the US have zero income tax?

you can't "fix" inflation in the first place except by stopping printing money
reciprocal tarrifs are not only the correct thing to do, but doing anything else is COMPLETELY retarded and shafting your own country for the benefit of anothers
if you wan't to not be tarrifed, then stop tarrifing other countries in the first place retards

nooo we can tarrif american cheese at 290% but you can't do anything back!!!!!

Shut the fuck up man, it's a completely level and even playing field of trade or nothing at all, there is no in between

I'm sure once all the Mexicans are gone, farmers will gladly pay you $33/hr to work a third as hard as Jose did

They will, or they will go bankrupt and close, take your pick either outcome works for us lad.
Your business does not deserve to exist if it cannot attract the local citizenry as a workforce with standards they will accept
It is unnecessary and the government should absolutely stop propping it up and let nature take its course

Yeah, it's funny when countries get a taste of their own medicine and get uppity about it.

worker exploitation is OK because brownoids are the ones affected

Seek help.

i just bought 18 eggs for $5 tho

I can't imagine being as fucking retarded as you are.
A HS dropout can easily make $25/hour to start at a factory NOW. If you can show up to work and not be drunk on the job after 3-5 years you can *easily* make $40/hour in factories RIGHT NOW.
Your impossible pipe dream can be had down the street, you retard

Literally begging the EU for eggs while imposing tariffs

Why don't we just destroy money then?

JFC, you retards are literally retarded.

"ZOMFG! The US is doing to other nations what those nations do to it to warp trade! AMERICA IS ANNIHILATED IN JUST -"

*checks notes*

"-SEVENTY-THREE DAYS OF-"

*checks notes*

"-TALKING ABOUT STUFF! REEEEEEEEEEE!"

Finally someone that didn't sleep through ECON 215

I take it back - you're too stupid even for a glowie

No such factory jobs exist in my state

Literally no argument huh?

doing to other nations what those nations do to it to warp trade

That's not what's happening at all. The US is imposing tariffs even on countries that have free trade agreements with it. Chile eliminated the overwhelming majority of tariffs on US imports over 20 years ago and it just randomly got tariffed. Territories and islands with 0 inhabitants got slapped with tariffs. This shit was literally crafted with ChatGPT.

Just raise prices even higher, let's kill inflation by paying $50 for a dozen eggs

nigger you arent like other nations lol thats the point you are driving a truck with the mentality of a bicycle,you are a monkey with a caliper.

I voted for Trump because I'm an accelerationist, not because I like him and truly believe his policies are what's best for America. The sooner we touch the stove, the better. It's the only way we'll learn.

thats a horrible price for regular eggs. in canada the highest quality eggs are $3/CAD per dozen. and $3 Cad is like $2 USD

Price goes up.

This is inflation.

Price goes down.

This is a recession/depression/crash.

Price stay the same.

This is stagnation.

What exactly do (((economists))) want?

2-3% inflation. There's no chance were deflating the post-COVID inflation that affected every other g7 nation.

you're fucking lying, I'm a leaf too and the cheapest kind of egg you can get is going to hover between between 3.50$ to 4.00$. If you get the fancy quality ones they easily go to 7$ for a dozen. That's in Ontario and Quebec.

That's not how any model in economics works. I don't think you're making a good faith argument.

let's kill inflation by paying $50 for a dozen eggs

Your mind has been utterly raped by legacy media and social media bandwagons. The world's too fast for you, and if it wasn't, maybe you would learn that America is a food exporter and not an importer.

the overwhelming majority

Translation

YES, Chile still has tariffs on US goods

Moron

Do you think that prior to today the US had zero tariffs on trading partners whatsoever?

blah blah blah blah blah

So you are just admitting that what Trump is doing is not unusual?

No, I'm pointing out that the US already had tariffs on Chile that they considered proportional, and this blanket tarrif of 10% is a retarded policy that will hurt the US. But by all means, continue being a retard if you'd like.

point flew completely over his head

smartest conservative.

The tariffs were negotiated directly with the US brainlet, they're not arbitrary, and the US is free to ask to renegotiate the terms of the deal at any moment. Like Trump himself did by renegotiating NAFTA, replacing it with USMCA, claiming it was the best trade deal ever and then randomly backtracking and saying Canada and Mexico are totally being meanies without ever going into any specifics or admitting to any flaws in the terms that he personally negotiated, signed and praised.

Btw these are wholesale prices. You'll be hard-pressed to find eggs for less than $5 a dozen right now at any store. Plus, this is entirely due to recovery from bird flu causing price surges. Trump himself hasn't made a dent in the prices.
