Just an idiot spitballing here, but, wouldn't the inflation we see now be caused by a combination of low interest rates, a drop in production of goods due to a pandemic and an increased demand for goods with the stimulus money that was given out? 

Idk. Seems like that'd be the case to me. Pretty sure all that started under the last Xi Xinping puppets administration.

 

The fix isn't going to be pretty either. So hold onto your hats fuckwads. The fed will raise interest rates soon to offset the demand and the spigot will cut off on this inflated economy that was created by the last administration.

How are they funded?

The Taliban fund themselves largely through the opium trade, with Afghanistan supplying the vast majority of illicit heroin across the globe. Insurgents impose a tax at every stage of the drug production process, from poppy farmers to traders who transport the heroin to neighbouring countries.

The group also makes money through illegal mining and trading minerals.

According to a confidential report commissioned by Nato and obtained by Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, the group earned $1.6bn (£1.15bn) in the financial year ending March 2020. 

“That financial independence enables the Afghan Taliban to self-fund its insurgency without the need for support from governments or citizens of other countries,” the report states.

The Taliban also tax local industries and impose the Islamic taxes ushr, a 10 per cent tax on the harvests of irrigated land and 10 per cent tax on harvest from rain-watered land and 5 per cent on land dependent on well water, and zakat, a 2.5 per cent wealth tax.

Inflation, gas prices, etc. are due to the rapid increase in demand and the cash stimulus supercharging the purchasing power of the general public.

Anybody who's reasonable and willing to read could understand this.

Therefore, nobody at the beginning of this thread.

Wrong. This was a trickle down effect. No one is cutting lumber. No one is packing and shipping lumber. A lot of people want lumber. But there isn’t enough to go around. So the supply and demand gets kicked into high gear. Now the cost of lumber has inflated because Biden has kept everyone home with welfare incentives. 
 

Now change the word lumber to (insert any other good that has skyrocketed)

The price of lumber is down 71%

Lumber Drops to Nine-Month Low, Extending Retreat From Record

September futures in Chicago fell as much as 4.4% to $482.90 per thousand board feet, the lowest for a most-active contract since Oct. 30. Prices have dropped more than 70% from the record high reached just three months ago.

Joe Biden has nothing to do with the price of lumber. If you think so then you're an idiot.

It continues to be embarrassing to read you opine on economic issues. You have such an obvious misunderstanding of how things work.

Carter … on an accelerated path

Here's someone named *checks notes* Bormio lauding Trump's move to pull our troops from Afghanistan as a "courageous and right" decision.

A few days old - but no less important.  Even if ignored by the press.  Long past time to end nation-building there and bring our young men and women home alive.  Against the pushback from the usual national security bureaucracy.  A courageous decision - and the right one.

The deal with lumber was the big producers made a miscalculation. They thought that demand would drop due to the pandemic, but, thanks to stimulus and people bored at home coupled with a weird housing market due to low interest rates, people took to doing DIY projects at home or noticing things more since staying at home which heated the building market even more than I already was.

Basically the lumber producers got caught by surprise and the demand extremely outpaced the production. They've now caught up for the most part. 

Oddly enough most builders didn't see a decline in people shopping for homes due the the low rates, even though the material costs went through the roof. Seems like that's created an equity problem for people building while the materials were up to me, but, that's yet to be seen. 

None of it will matter soon when the fed raises the interest rates to curtail the inflation anyway. Lumber will be dirt cheap again because people won't be building as much. 

We could still be on a nice steady gradual growth but thanks to the Don pouring kerosene onto everything the burnout is coming sooner than later. Get your real estate investments done inside the next 12 months. Home purchases etc., before the rate increase. 

 

 

I feel pretty confident that yall can go back and read Allenfan's and my posts back ahead of the election of DJT where we are now starting to look like Nostradamus having foreseen all of these things. Even said you fools would say basically what you're saying now too. xD

It's basic common sense.

Of which the usual suspects of dumbasses have none.

This question proves that you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the world.

First, we all remember when everybody was buying toilet paper and the shelves were empty. That was because of COVID-19 dipshit.

But your wording proves your ignorance as well.

There was no toilet paper shortage. There was a toilet paper supply issue. Learn the difference.
