I feel like I'm back to my freshman year in college with Jimmy Carter in the WH.  Inflation, long gas lines, Middle East in flames, etc. All we're missing is high interest rates....oh wait, with inflation you can be sure the Fed will raise rates.  And when they do it will not be good for the stock markets as we have seen over the last week. Meanwhile Dementia Joe put a lid on his day yesterday at 3:45pm.  SMH.  

On a positive note, employers in Florida said they are getting flooded with job applicants after DeSantis announced an end to the additional unemployment benefits.  Reminds me of what happened in WI when they changed their welfare program.  Half a million dropped off the rolls even before the changes took place.  Lots of states are following his lead and people will flood the market to get a job before someone else takes it.  Human nature.
