70% of the inflation number over the last year has gone exclusively to increases in corporate profits....

Why on Earth is this thread now talking about inflation?

Because some people just can't help themselves.

The intellectual dishonesty of describing 8% inflation as a “bit” high is a travesty to basic math and economic principles.

It’s also insulting that you believe the general public is dumb enough to entertain such an idea.

Bernie is that you? Take an Econ class.

AppState Econ major here.... You are suggesting that an economist take an econ class. I do regularly.

Maybe you should venture out of your echo chamber....

This thread will now be deleted because another opinion was voiced and therefore it is now "political"....

I was not referring to current inflation in the original post, but making a comment about having some inflation is considered desirable compared to having other situations such as deflation. I only brought up current numbers in a rebuttal. It is possible I could have been clearer with a bit longer post but I was on a phone and thought it clear enough for someone that, I assume, passed some English classes at App State. You are twisting around way more than needs to be twisted with my words.

For the record I do appreciate not having the same levels of inflation as the UK is going through right now, and most of the other advanced economies of the world. But I also appreciate not having deflation as an ongoing concern.

I'll try and restate for a GaSo graduate.

Some inflation - not so bad. Deflation - generally bad. 8% inflation not an ideal situation, though it could be good for the environment. (My apologies for using a 4 syllable word on the last sentence.)

40 year high inflation, no amount of spin can save you.

Low blow on the GS comment, but that’s what you need to do once the argument is lost.

You are describing a symptom of inflation not the disease. This is certainly not political, this is basic economics.

Your post about 70% of corporate profits is straight from a political echo chamber versus using basic principles you claim to have studied.

No. It is from economic data research from majority of economists.

I've noticed there has been a 27% increase in the inflation rate of egos on the board this year. I'm not sure how we can control it. We tried raising the interest in the board, but the highly inflated egos just inflated more, forcing the interest to drop back down. We tried getting a loan from ESPN to pay off our debts and help our interest rates, but that just caused higher ego inflation rates which caused a mini-recession. We just keep building up so much inflation we are losing sight of what made us who we are. I just hope we are ready when the bubble eventually bursts.

Heck, many up here on this board think they are better coaches than the actual football coaches....ehh, diversify your pretend expertise..be econ experts as well.

These corporations just realized they could raise prices and increase profits? Brilliant, wonder why that didn’t try that earlier?

Saying 70% is from corporate pricing is lazy quite honestly.

- Supply chains are broken from policies from the past two decades.

- we locked down everything for far too long (both parties, although one took it further)

- we provided too many rounds of stimulus (both parties), this also occurred globally

- we then threw a match on it with our energy and foreign policy decisions

There is a lot of blame to go around and to downplay how bad it is for the general public is troubling, inflation and increased energy costs hit the poorest of our citizens the hardest.

A couple of your points are correct. Good job.

When you’re able to call out both sides you’ll be surprised how accurate you can become. Try it sometime.

I have been given some details on the Legends project.As described it will be a huge positive for the U, and the town. Something much needed for a long time.My opinion.

Is it the full service hotel/meeting area similar to Broyhill? If so, I guess I can see the benefits, but the Broyhill has been gone for how many years now, and seems to be going fine?

Is that Legends area large enough for a hotel and conference center?

That is my question as well. Perhaps the developer bought up more property in that block. I don’t know.

Can y’all imagine how a hotel beside DBI will work? The lines will extend all the way to the Turchin Center.

If they build up there is plenty.
