A Johns Hopkins study says 'ill-founded' COVID lockdowns did more harm than good https://health.wusf.usf.edu/health-news-florida/2022-02-02/a-johns-hopkins-study-says-ill-founded-lockdowns-did-little-to-limit-covid-deaths The researchers say lockdowns had no noticeable effect on reducing COVID-related deaths and a "devastating effect" on economies and social ills

Please show me the science that proves shutdowns worked. CHAPTERS OCT. 30, 2023 COVID Lockdowns Were a Giant Experiment. It Was a Failure. A key lesson of the pandemic. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/covid-lockdowns-big-fail-joe-nocera-bethany-mclean-book-excerpt.html

The COVID shutdowns were draconian.

If you were an economist, you would objectively examine inflation.

Krugman is nothing but a left-wing pundit for the NY Times. I still laughed at his hissing comment.

You are not an economist.

The Federalist Papers are right-wing?

He is the dude who said the housing bubble was not a big deal.

You can't even handle resizing while posting screen captures from a phone.

It's easy for jobs to return when the states end the shutdowns.

You suck at the internet.

Joe Biden is more responsible for high inflation than for abundant jobs The main effect of the president’s economic policies has been to boost prices https://www.economist.com/leaders/2023/05/11/joe-biden-is-more-responsible-for-high-inflation-than-for-abundant-jobs Mr Biden’s stimulus did, however, put a rocket under inflation. In April “core” consumer prices, which exclude energy and food, were 13.4% higher than when he came to office. They have risen more than in other g7 countries, and their acceleration coincided with the introduction of Mr Biden’s stimulus. Research suggests that, even by September 2022, the largesse was pushing up core inflation by about four percentage points.

Are you?

I wonder if he has even has a GED.

The OP is dumber than you are.

Why?

You have demonstrated zero understanding of economics.

Excess demand caused US inflation, while energy prices caused European inflation.

The OP made a fact-free claim.

I call BS on this.

This is false. You live in an alternate universe.

The fed lowered the rate of inflation via interest rate hikes. The high rates were put in place to combat Biden’s inflationary policies.

You support candidates who bring forth inflationary polices.
