LOL......whatever.......maybe I should depend on the Dems to fix everything (aka pay all my bills)?

Hey......they it did if (well, for alot of them anyway) over the Student Debt issue.

Will the next election come with a promise to pay CC bills?

Aloha, Mark
 
The number of dollars in circulation (Money Supply) is only one part of the equation. The other is the velocity of those dollars, meaning how often they are used. A dollar used five times stimulates the economy far more than a dollar used once. The quoted article doesn't seem to address the fact that consumers now have credit cards, and are using them to keep spending. This spending is what is keeping inflation high, and so the Federal Reserve is raising interest rates to slow things down.

Inflation is caused by too many dollars chasing the current supply of goods and services. If the dollars are not available, there is less demand, so prices should fall. But if credit is available, it is like having more dollars in circulation, and the prices keep rising.

Comparing the money supply between the Great Depression and now is not going to be valuable information for predicting future financial stability unless velocity of money is also considered.
