Clown School’s Good Inflation Finance by Yahoo Inequality Expert

Yahoo Finance is no place for financial news unless the name Yahoo didn’t already give it away. If you thought inflation was harmful, an inequality expert said it’s good for the rich and middle class.  And if you thought inflation was a hidden tax, Yahoo says it’s the opposite. Don’t believe your lying eyes.

The good news is that real estate goes up, and the real debt burden goes down.

So, there you have it. Inflation is good for you.

Don’t go to Yahoo Finance for your financial advice.

The inequality expert’s voodoo for you:

But now, new research has added a wrinkle to the popular view of inflation as nothing but a downer. In a new working paper whose title asks, “Is There Really an Inflation Tax?” New York University economist Edward Nathan Wolff, an expert on inequality with nearly 40 years of research to his name, breaks down the effects of inflation on Americans’ overall wealth between 1983 and 2019.

His answer? The “inflation tax” does exist, but not for everybody. The middle class and the top 1% of Americans actually benefited from periods of high inflation in recent decades. “With regard to the issue of whether there is really a net inflation tax, the answer is that it is true for some groups only,” Wolff wrote.

Not everyone or anyone with an IQ above a brain-damaged Simian agrees:

Inequality experts are not experts at all and that is pseudo science. Why didn’t Africa advance like Europe prior to colonization? What is the the reason, not being racist here asking an honest question.

I have condemned Yahoo for some time now, because it has tripped all over itself scrambling to evoke Radical Leftist ideology. Even one simple word in a comment and its algorithms won’t let you post. Its WOKENESS is so over the top it is apparent that nothing it does or its people speak to should be listened to.

It has become just like the MSM and FOX cable news all leaning so far left it appears they are about to fall off a cliff in their radicalized idiocy !
