You are not missing anything and your observations are grounded in reality and rational throught.  Only a complete fool would think $3.5T in new spending costs $0...especially since it's really closer to $5T.  Only a complete fool would think the inflation is happening because of an overheated economy, as if that was actually happening, rather than the trillions in new money the Fed has created.  Only a complete fool would think that going from less then $2 per gallon for gas to $4 per gallon in some places and 50%+ increases in heating oil is really a good thing. 

Only a complete fool would think that the Biden admin is doing anything competently.....as of today that accounts for around 36% of the population and dropping.  Biden is literally accomplishing something I thought not possible and prayed would enver happen....making Jimmy Carter seem almost competent.  Like I said a while ago, we're partying like it's the 1970's all over again and given consumer sentiment we are truly headed for stagflation just like we had with Carter.  Those were dark days for this country and I remember them well....our national malaise has returned with a vengence.  But hey, no mean tweets, right?
