When politicians make changes to things, the changes affect the future. 🤔

So the good economy during Trump's administration was Obama's accomplishment, and the inflation during Biden's presidency was Trump's fault? Works for me.

Unironically yes.

And as for San Francisco, its problem is rapid and astronomical increase in wealth without sufficient accommodation. If my city became the hotbed of the new it industry I’d be screaming about the need for massive investment in affordable housing and public transit because otherwise it’s gonna wind up filled with homeless locals

The inflation was the result of our pandemic response including:

  • Printing tons of new money, which was given to corporations and the upper middle class
  • Forcibly shutting down small businesses, leaving the large survivors with less competition
