Inflation – Has it arrived?

[jeeman]

I am making the prediction of biflation. Basically a reversal on what has happened in the last 15-20 years.

The percentage of income devoted to housing went from 25% to 40%, while the percentage of income devoted to food and energy went down.

The last few years, the housing value has gone down while food and energy has gone up. Other goods have stayed flat, or have gone down a little bit.

What this means is that we are in stagflation (as Rich has predicted), while our standard of living decreases. Cheap energy has increased our standard of living, allowing for more money to flow into other assets, but this gravy train has come to an end with the rise of China, Obama’s drilling moratorium and his war on oil, and the fact that solar energy production isn’t cheap *YET*.

Once solar technology reaches its renaissance, our standard of living will rise again, but this isn’t going to be for a while. We could have done this a while ago with nuclear, but there are enough nutjobs in this country that stymied the path that France took.

Hmmm sounds to me like these steps that the Fed and Treasury take/took to save us all from total collapse in reality are just steps that enabled large institution and those with money to benefit and make even more money…Good thing we were able to be saved!

Sounds like a good case for taxing the large institutions and those with money who made even more money. Maybe they should share the proportionately greater benefits they received from government intervention?

Of course that would be a good idea. Let me know when it happens. My money is on continued manipulation and spending including rewarding those who contributed to your ascent in power.
