      Things are strange right now. The US dollar is becoming less valuable because of inflation, and other powerful nations waking up to trade in their own currencies. Good thing is, a lot of people still turn to the Dollar because of the safety is somehow assures. I'm worried about my retirement savings of about $420,000 losing value because of these factors and more. Where else can we keep our money?

    Steve is correct, there's two Econ 101 ways to bring down inflation, 1) raise interest rates to crush the economy, and 2) increase supply by lowering taxes and regulations, which lowers prices. The current regime picked the former, and we're all suffering as a result.

      Inflation is worldwide and the result of the failure of Capitalism. The President of Kroger is bragging about how inflation is good for profits. As a result, a new word has been coined, "greedlation".
      Oil companies are making record profits. CEOs and Boards of Directors are getting record bonuses. Chevron was paying dividends of $1.00 per share at the end of the pandemic. Now it is paying $1.60.
      The UK passed a windfall profit tax on oil companies to help ordinary Britains. The GOP would never allow that in the US. So it is not Biden who is making prices rise. It is billionaires protected by the Grand Oligarchy Party.
      Consolidation of wealth is the biggest threat to the country. It is the result of Republican trickle down tax policies. While the rich get richer. Millions of Americans are forced out of the middle class. A Republic cannot survive when 10% of the population ownes 70% of the wealth.

      The Democrat strategy is trickle down taxation.. It works for them because the majority of Dem voters don't pay significant federal taxes. There is no so-called federal wealth tax, funds that are construed as income can be taxed. A federal wealth tax could open the way to a national property tax. Billionaires like Bezos don't pay income tax - they can afford to donate to the left as a kind of bribe : no wealth tax for them
