(Un) Intended Consequences

 It's inconceivable to anyone with a brain that adding tens of millions of immigrants (both legal and not) into a country which has a housing shortage left over from the 2008 housing crash, and into a country which has legislated/regulated affordable housing out of existence, wasn't going to cause an increase in housing prices.   It's supply and demand.  The only question is whether or not Biden even cared about this inevitable consequence or was he just interested in importing potential DFL voters?

 Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers warned in early 2021 that Biden’s $1.9 trillion stimulus, passed as the economy was reopening, risked unleashing inflation unlike anything America had seen in a generation. He was right. By June 2022, inflation hit 9.1%, the worst 12-month increase in 40 years. 21.5% cumulative inflation over Biden’s term that permanently increased the cost of living by $14,300 PER YEAR.

 "Cry me a river." 

 

 That's how the allegedly compassionate DFL responds to the pain they caused.
