Yea your are right about the unemployment back in the 80's. A high school kid couldn't find a job at a fast food restaurant because the responsible adults were filling all the positions to put food on the table and try to make the house payment.Major difference is the current employment numbers. Double digit unemployment in the early 80s and near 3% now. In the 80s once the unemployment numbers started to improve the hourly earnings bottomed out. The hourly earnings are at a record pace over the past 14 months. No two events are identical, can only hope to learn from each one.
I'm glad things are better for you than a couple years ago. The rest of us don't have that luxury.Right wing propaganda film. Do you really believe any of that garbage?
Here's what I don't understand. People complain when our government runs massive debts (28 trillion over the last 20 years). But when the Fed announces last year that they will attempt to raise rates and reduce it's balance sheet people are mad because the market has adjusted and things are more expensive. Either you want the government to control our economy and support every industry or GTF out of the way and let capitalism run it's course. If people were living check to check when we were running 2 trillion dollar yearly deficits, then yes, things are going to be more difficult going forward.I'm glad things are better for you than a couple years ago.

More expensive, inflation isn't even at its normal rate of 2 percentHere's what I don't understand. People complain when our government runs massive debts (28 trillion over the last 20 years).

You want raises but you don't want inflation to eat it all wayNobody knows what they want. They just want to complain
So you want the government to be the stop gap? Wages are one of the leading inflation factors.You want raises but you don't want inflation to eat it all way
Inflation is supposed to be at a 2 percent levelSo you want the government to be the stop gap? Wages are one of the leading inflation factors.

Ok thanks. I have new perspective- I hope gas goes to ten dollars per gallon. And I hope groceries triple in price. I see more clearly now.Here's what I don't understand.

2% isn't even the normal rate, it's the target rate.You want raises but you don't want inflation to eat it all way
That is incorrect2% isn't even the normal rate, it's the target rate.
Ideally it would be zero or less.
MmmmmmmSo if a pt worker is making 15.33 right now. Going up to 15.83 August 1st will get 16.65 with the new cola raise?
Sounds like you got the cost of living adjustment raise last year so, if that's the case I guess the answer would be yesSo if a pt worker is making 15.33 right now. Going up to 15.83 August 1st will get 16.65 with the new cola raise?
No it's not.That is incorrect
Yes it is you do not want deflation.No it's not.
Japan ended up where they are by printing money just like we have been. We're literally becoming like Japan is right now. LmfaoYes it is you do not want deflation.
You want to controlled inflation environment or you'll be stuck like Japan has been for last 30 years
