none of their “plans@ would address inflation; they would make it worse by increasing the national debt, further tightening the job market and acting as a fiscal stimulus in an already overheated economy. https://t.co/3DhzGMxlae

Wish the media would change the narrative on inflation to Katie Porter's, but suppose their advertisers won't allow it.
From Crooks and Liars:
By Susie Madrak — October 19, 2022
During a House hearing this week, Katie Porter interviewed Mike Konczal, a director at the Roosevelt Institute, the progressive economic think tank , over the primary current cause of inflation. And of course she had visual aids.
"According to this chart, what is the biggest driver of inflation during the pandemic? The blue – the dark blue is the recent period," Porter said.
"It would be corporate profits," he said.
She asked what percentage.
"It is 54 percent, and that number does stay that level of high if you update that number to more recent numbers as well," he said.
"So over half of the increased prices people are paying are coming from increases in corporate profits?"
Konczal said yes. "The unit price index is reflected in corporate profits as opposed to other costs."
"How does that compare to, historically, other periods of inflation or over other periods of economic time?"
"It is significantly higher in this recovery – 11.5 percent."
