Commissar SFLUFAN Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Now for inflation to not erode those gains. Fed influence, shaky forecasts, delayed decisions: How the Biden administration misread the inflation threat WWW.CNBC.COM The Biden administration misread the rising threat of inflation for a variety of reasons, according to several economists and current and former officials. Quote When President Joe Biden nominated former Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen to run the Treasury Department, his rationale was simple: “No one is better prepared to deal with this crisis.” The crisis to which he referred was a “K-shaped” economic recovery that had exacerbated inequality in the wake of a once-in-a-generation pandemic. The administration had a simple plan, and Yellen would help carry it out. Once hundreds of millions of Americans would get vaccinated against Covid-19, and trillions of dollars in new government spending flowed into the economy, the world would return to normal under a supercharged recovery. One year later, a different problem – inflation – is dampening the recovery, sucking the oxygen out of strategy sessions, angering voters and threatening Democrats’ razor-thin governing margins. This, despite warnings from economists and months of vows from the Fed and the White House it would be short-lived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I think the core issue we have is that our tools are very poor for a scenario with massive job churn. As an example, many states have near instantaneous systems for capturing lost jobs, but very delayed reporting of hiring. In a labor market where people are mostly staying put this isn’t as big of an issue. The velocity of job churn is just incredibly high over the last 18 months. We need better systems.

b_m_b_m_b_m Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Trump appointees are poison and I doubt that a republican president wouldn’t have the authority to fire the bls leader given what we know about scotus and the power of the president to fire whomever in their branch of government Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the commissioner BLS is the one giving undercounting numbers who is responsible for the revised numbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
