and black markets. Inflation will start to be runaway, meaning the Fed will start jacking up interest rates (the only real tool in their toolbox), exactly the opposit of what King Fuckwit wants them to do. Plus, there will still be shortages of lowprofit items, like mass market, throwaway fashion clothing.

We're heading into a very frustrating time and no one is going to be happy about what's coming.
