Tone-Deaf Fortune Mag Headline: ‘Why You Should Be Happy About Inflation’
NewsBusters | 9/21/2022 | Joseph VazquezFortune magazine ran one of the dumbest liberal takes on inflation yet. Its propaganda piece even puts fraudulent economists like Paul Krugman to shame.
The liberal magazine had the audacity to publish a tone-deaf inflation story with the headline: “Why you should be happy about inflation and worried about something else, top economist Brad DeLong says.” The magazine pushed the insane propaganda of University of California, Berkeley Professor Brad DeLong who reportedly said that so-called “‘reopening inflation’” has “‘so far been a very good thing.’” The liberal rag continued: “DeLong argues that there is a major economic shift taking place that people should welcome. It all has to do with our strange but kind of wonderful post-pandemic economy.”

With my food budget, I can expect to lose thirty pounds over the next four months.
I am in much better physical shape than I used to be. When I was 19 it would have taken three trips to carry twenty dollars worth of groceries in from the car. Now I can do fifty in one trip without breaking a sweat.

Because you may now blame inflation caused by arbitrary blue state increases in minimum wage, and resource use restrictions on the effects of inflation caused by arbitrary blue state increases in minimum wage and resource use restrictions.
Now you can easily argue for a $50 minimum wage and less energy production because the cost of food and gas is so high.
