Here’s an interesting chart from the American Enterprise Institute.
Does anything jump out at you? What jumps out at me is that the goods and services whose prices have increased the most are also the ones that are the most subsidized and managed by government. The goods and services whose prices have declined are those that participate more aggressively in the free market.
Despite what some folks like to champion, the free market works. Every time.
When government is not involved, market tends to keep prices steady or drive prices down.
When liberals screw up an industry, by heavily subdidizing it, the prices go crazy.
Another example of liberals hurting the poor.
Nonsense.
Nord,
I know math can be hard, but the inflation crazy industries in chart above are the industries with most government interference and government subsidy.
In other words, industries liberals have destroyed with socialist policies.
Kevin:
The nonsense comment was in response to your ”

example: The state of WI has less $$ in the UW system now then it did in 1996.
It’s really funny, even hysterical, for you to comment on anybodys math skills. Especially when you “select” which items to chart.
Nord,
Your little tidbit ignores the fact liberals kept raising tuition recklessly until Walker froze tuition !
Reckless tuition raising increased Federal government subsidy and burdened the already heavy yoke of student debt.
What I never got was: liberal students always protest tuition hikes. Liberal academia always screwed them. Walker freezes tuition and liberal students fail to celebrate.
It’s like liberals want to be slaves to liberal academic education slave masters.
Go figure.
“Your little tidbit ignores the fact liberals kept raising tuition recklessly until Walker froze tuition !
Reckless tuition raising increased Federal government subsidy and burdened the already heavy yoke of student debt”.
Most of that statement makes no sense. What can be deciphered isn’t true. The plot of college tuition is just as steep during periods of republican leadership as it is under “liberal” leadership.
If what you claim (“When liberals screw up an industry, by heavily subdidizing it, the prices go crazy”), is true, which it isn’t, explain the price of new cars. Thanks
