I’m alright with his analysis here. It is technically sound in my opinion. We are not facing a structural inflation problem. Get ready… hold on to your hat… this inflation we are facing… is…

…

transitory.

Sure, anything is transitory if you want to play around disingenuously with timeframes. What a joke.

We need to spend money to fight inflation! Give everyone 100k, that ought to be enough.

Yeah, the statement doesn't make sense. But snark is so much easier than explaining what you are trying to say.

My statement isn’t confounding, money is not the issue - it’s supply disruptions and shifting service demand to goods. Add to that the war in Ukraine too.
