    Wouldn’t govt job cuts be non inflationary and help balance some of this out. Business owners make quick adjustments it’s possible we are over thinking Trumps inflationary effects.

People shouldn’t have to lose their jobs for us to bring down prices and really if musk does what he did at X, that’s a lot of people just gone from government. I get he wants to cut cost and make things more efficient but I’m light concerned about their plans for the economy, government and foreign policy

      If those government jobs are translated to private payroll and at same pay rate it could decrease government spending but if those people remain jobless it reduces the tax revenue and increases the deficit and debt.

      @@Openminder321 I understand government overspends, I’m a Republican and fully stand behind cutting wasteful spending but Elon doesn’t strike me as the man with a plan. Beyond cool products his judgment and timeline is questionable at really come off as a power move rather than wanting to genuinely help society. And a lot of what Musk and Trump say regarding deregulation is concerning because every single time we decide to deregulate, companies/people abuse to system. Do we need more oversight and excessive regulation no, do we need common sense overall rules and consequences for those who break the rules yes. Long story short, I don’t think Musk is in position to bargain against himself or to run any official job with any quantatibe substance

      The bloated federal government is contributing to the labor shortage. The people hired to get their votes for tax and spend Democrats aren't productive. They'll be more useful in the main street economy. The party's over. Government debt is at the end of its rope.

    Bringing prices back down (other than energy) could be a challenge. But wage growth can be created. Exceeding wage growth 4-5% over inflation (2.5%) will do it.

    Tax cuts and tariffs are both inflationary, just through different routes. Tax cuts fuel demand, risking demand-pull inflation if the economy's already humming. Tariffs directly hike import prices, causing cost-push inflation. These two can easily team up to create a double-whammy of inflation, reminiscent of the 'guns and butter' policies of the 1970s that saw increased spending alongside trade restrictions.

If we don't make produce & market & sell something it doesn't any difference how many people voted for trump what matters is this enomous debt , the delollarization that LEGAL & no one can force a country to use dollars , most of the Global Southern countries don't have dollars in their central bank .

      investing through an advisor, and I don't have
      to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my
      finances remain secure. So I really don't blame
      people who panic.

    Scott is right that you can't have it both ways in that tax cuts are inflationary and tariffs are inflationary. Powell was set to do an interest rate cut before election results and now supposedly re-thinking that rate cut. Don't know what economic factors changed since a couple days ago, except that Trump won the election in a landslide.

    • @nikolailiev569
      @nikolailiev569 17 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      How could they not be inflationary? Increasing disposable income boosts spending (tax cuts), while reducing imports or making them more expensive (tariffs) only adds fuel to the fire by raising prices on imported goods. Together, it's a recipe for driving inflation even higher, especially when combined with falling interest rates. And if rates need to be raised again to control inflation, Trump's history of interfering with the Fed makes that extremely implausible.

He seems like a genuinely honest guy that has been put in a political situation in which he has to say things that he doesn't actually think are true. Not cut out for politics.
