We all can bitch, but most people want solutions.
My favorite solution to eliminate Democrats isn't going to happen, so
I'll dig down deeper.
Simply, quit playing the game.  go Galt.
What is the bare minimum you need to live?
That is all you do.  Quit spending.
save your money. for a few months.
Kind of a passive-aggressive strike.
Our money system is designed to inflate at about 2.5% per year.
WHY? To pay off past debts, with future inflated dollars.
Democrat designed monetary system depends on the flow
of funds through the system.
stop the flow and we will get attention.

Someone understands the cause of our money losing buying power, unlike some other people.

And how all these government stimulus is spending our way to debt for generations to come.

Nothing to see here though.  Look the other way.
I think, therefore I am armed.

At the very least dump all the debt you can, Bidens spending and massive  inflation WILL force the Fed to increase interest rates also the idiot Republicans who helped Dems spend all that money just threatened to stop raising the debt ceiling, that is going to trash bond rates and force interest way WAY higher. Every point in interest rate hike is going to add 1 Trillion more dollars to US annual debt, you are about to watch a massive spiral in pricing and the collapse of the petrodollar.

Russia and China are already dumping US currency, everyone knows what's coming except for Sleepy Joe.

Not really.   If there is inflation having fixed intrest debt is amazing.  I would purchase the most expensive house you can afford.  Your mortgage payments won't go up but your salary will cause of the inflation.

Do you have a mortgage, or are you a renter??  I surmise you rent, since you obviously don't understand what a mortgage means.

Mortgage payments include: Principal, Interest, Taxes and Insurance.  Realtors abbreviate it PITI.

While you might see your interest remain static, inflation will affect your insurance and tax payments.  In short, your mortgage payment will increase ... peroid.

On top of that, if inflation results in an increase in your take-home pay since most government agencies apply wage increases based on the inflation rate, your gross income would go up, but so would the taxes you pay.  A $200/month increase may only net you an additional $40 take home.  Then, when you file a 1040 itemized return to take advantage of the interest deduction, you'll see that you don't get an increase in your tax refund since your interest paid that year is not increasing.

If you are using that home as a rental property, the interest payments are not important if you can get enough rental income to make those mortgage payments.  The higher the interest charged, the slower equity is built.  But, as long as you keep it as a rental, there's no cash flow problem, and the additional interest helps at tax time as a write-off on your personal total income -- i.e. less taxes you owe.

You live in a simpleton's world.  That's mainly because you speak of so many things with which you have zero experience.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;
the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

That's why I wrote "if" there's is.   

Still think it's under control.   Inflation decreased from last month I think.

I just got a mortgage.  I disagree with you.  Your mortgage remains static, this is the largest chunk of your bill.  Its over 90% of my total payment.  I don’t have mortgage insurance or anything like that.  Home insurance is cheap, property taxes would increase.  But not enough to matter to me. 
Like you said your salary would keep up with the raising inflation.  Since 90% of what you pay on your house is static, you would gain more than you lose.  IDK how you get taxed that high that 80% of your check goes to taxes...might want to speak with an accountant.  I pay around 30% effective tax rate.  Which means on $200 raise I would net $140.

I make 5k a month.  My mortgage is 2k (200 taxes and insurance)
If inflation goes up 10%, I make 5.5k a month and my mortgage will still be around 2.1k and that's if my taxes and insurance goes up 50%....

Remember flapp adults admit when they are wrong.  :shaka:
