It\u2019s not going to happen, says the president. Or, at least, if it does happen, it\u2019ll be because the government wasn\u2019t permitted to spend enough of your cash. And anyhow, when you really think about it, inflation is a pretty \u201chigh-class problem\u201d to have, isn\u2019t it? In that sense, it\u2019s a little like \u00adsupply-chain disruptions, which you might well believe have the potential to seriously inconvenience you, but which, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg confirms, are \u00adreally just the positive byproducts of Biden\u2019s having \u201csuccessfully guided this economy out of the teeth of a terrifying recession.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Asked today about the potential impact that this successful economic guidance might have on the delivery of consumer products going forward, White House press secretary Jen Psaki explained that we don\u2019t really need a functioning market anyhow.

Instead, relax into what the Washington Post\u2019s Micheline Maynard submits should be your \u201cnew, more realistic expectations\u201d for the future. \u201cAmerican consumers,\u201d Maynard points out, have been \u201cpampered and catered to for decades,\u201d to such an extent that their first reaction to deteriorating economic conditions may well be to engage in an unacceptable and \u201cspoiled\u201d \u201cwhine\u201d rather than to simply \u201cmake adjustments\u201d so that the president\u2019s feelings might be spared.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/empty-shelves.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Inflation and supply-chain issues have been dismissed by the White House.\" class=\"wp-image-19871837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/empty-shelves.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/empty-shelves.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/10\/empty-shelves.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Inflation and supply-chain issues have been dismissed by the White House.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Gabriella Bass<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Oh, and while you\u2019re at it, you might take a moment to appreciate the sheer ingenuity of the alchemy by which this administration has managed to transmute $3.5 trillion into $0 through good intentions alone. Previous generations \u2014 the ones that sat around worrying about treadmills delayed in transit, no doubt \u2014 had to face hard questions, such as how best to raise the money they wanted to spend on public services. Our generation, by a striking piece of luck, can just insist those choices away with incantations. What a trick!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s so devilishly clever, in fact \u2014 and so terribly simple to boot \u2014 that one can\u2019t help but wonder why it hadn\u2019t been thought of until now.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All one must do to achieve the effect is respond to any criticisms whatsoever with an emphatic, \u201cNo, you absolute rotter, that isn\u2019t happening at all; and if it is happening, it\u2019s not too bad, \u00adreally; and if it is bad, it won\u2019t be bad for long; and if it is bad for long, well, that\u2019ll be your fault.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then, having handily dispatched one\u2019s enemies, one can simply move on to the next objection, which, yes, might be based on things that people are actually seeing, but which is equally ill-founded, for reasons that will be decided upon by <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> within the next few days.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alice, she says, is able to believe \u201csix impossible things before breakfast.\u201d Looks as if she\u2019ll get the job.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>From National Review\u00a0<\/em>\n                        <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
