People are still feeling high prices in daily life, so downplaying the concern doesn’t match reality.

disingenuous bullshit.

Every day now, one of these dumbasses makes an out-of-touch “Let them eat cake" statement like this, and I really have to wonder who they even think they’re fooling at this point.

excluding Stephen Miller, of course.

I'm calling BS

higher prices means more revenue for the same amount of goods and services. So inflation has been raising stock prices. Who knows how long that will last.

Until consumers cut back on purchases. Then the house of cards comes falling down. America's economy is driven by consumer demand.

with insider stock trading and all the other scams this gang is operating?

"wages were up 3.6% for the year and inflation was up 3.8%."

And we just know how fudged and how massaged those numbers are, don't we?

The Man in the Street looks at his pay packet, then the price of things, and calls 'Baloney!' real loud.

Same in Australia, the official numbers don't match reality.

...pretty much sums up his job description.

To make more money. They thing when regular working folk use a credit card for everyday purchases it's a good thing. Even though credit card defaults are at it's highest level ever. People used to pay off their balances every month. Now they carry balances and have large interest rates. With gas prices so high and so many people traveling more than 20 miles to work every day those defaults are going to surge.

There isn't anyone in trumps treasury or cabinet positions that have a clue how everyday Americans live and just think we can just go out and borrow money on high interest revolving accounts. What's the big deal is what they think.
