[quote=Anonymous]I believe that we're at a tipping point economically - not just US but globally. I'm with Buffett when he talks about how we're at the tail end of the good life as we've known it. I think that this inflation is about greed. It's about everyone who can raise prices because everything is expensive and if you can make more money, you better do it now! It's about setting the bar higher than we used to because ultimately, people who have money will spend it and if you can take their money, why not? It's just a higher plateau of spending we are all at so no reason to drop. The only thing that will level this rise is a disaster of epic proportions that wipe those with money out so that the gap is narrowed. I also think that climate change drives some of the inflation and in the near future, it will get really bad with food and material prices. Textiles, groceries, everything will rise because it won't be as easy as it's been with shipping, growing, finding, etc. everything. I see it in all the flight prices. It's so hard to vacation the way we used to even though there's so many places we can go. Everything has risen obnoxiously. I think the Fed will lower rates, the market will stabilize, the job outlook will maybe downturn a bit but not too badly. I just think that long term prices will never be where we are used to - it's a new world order come about. Esp in the next 2-3 years, it'll be really different. [/quote]
