The cost of living has gone through the roof. Inflation is hurting all of us with the high cost of everything from essentials to entertainment. Why has it gotten so bad? The Federal Reserve caused inflation with its monetary policies. The Federal Reserve dumped $3 trillion - yes, trillion - dollars into the economy within a few months during the COVID crisis. Of course that is the main cause of inflation.

The cost of health care in the United States is far more than in other similar countries around the world. This endless price inflation is straining peoples' budget to the breaking point. There are heartrending stories of families being driven to homelessness due to the overwhelming cost of medical care. Does anyone think this is the best way to run a health care system?
