States predicted double-digit inflation: the reasons for the rise in prices in the world

34

The rise in prices is becoming a global problem. Yes, this is not a danger of terrorism or war, but the less its consequences should definitely not be underestimated. Every “extra” percentage of inflation means millions of people around the world who will not receive the opportunity to live in normal conditions - right down to food and water. Accordingly, the losses in terms of the population from the rise in prices may be at least comparable to the losses from one or another local conflict, and often even exceed them.

Saxo Bank made a forecast that inflation will overwhelm the United States. Yes, how it will overwhelm! The forecast is a two-digit number: 15 percent. As a joke? But prices in the US are also rising at an incredible rate. This is an unprecedented indicator for the American economy in recent years, demonstrating that the usual economic laws at least "rebelled", or even stopped working altogether against the backdrop of the crisis and pandemic.



Inflation rates in Russia are also hitting records of all recent years. So far they are talking about 9%, but not everyone believes ... Prices for metal and building materials in the country soared 2-3 times, some food products showed a price increase of 40-50 percent. Utilities tariffs are growing. At the same time, statesmen are already less and less likely to say that they are going to control the rise in prices.

Why did the prices seem to be off the chain? Why is inflation hitting even economies such as America's or Germany's today?

Oleg Komolov talks about the essence of the problem with modern prices in his program "Prime Numbers":

      Inflation in Russia is growing in leaps and bounds. For example cars:
      Prices compared to January 1, 2021:
      the grant was 488 900 became 587 900 (+ 20,24%)
      Vesta was 676 900 became 835 900 (+ 23,48%)
      hrey was 660 900 became 802 900 (+ 21,48%)
      largus was 653 900 now 812 900 (+ 24,31%)
      niva was 587 900 now 675 900 (+ 14,96%)
      shniva was 738 now 000 (+ 858%)
      Prices from the RRC plant have risen by a quarter in a year. Plus dealers hang up to a quarter of the price. In fact, we have a significant increase in prices since the beginning of the year.

        If now you show in which DC you can buy Grant for 587 and West for 835 today, then many who wish will firmly shake your hand))

          You are right, dealers do not have such prices. For now, I am arguing that inflation on the official RRP is more than 20%. The ruble got off the oil and gas needle and went on a free float, this is how it should be understood.

            One can think that it is possible, just the "middle class" cannot afford them. According to the GDP classification, the income of 18 thousand is considered the "middle class") (Garant recalled that the minimum wage in Russia is slightly more than 11 thousand rubles, which means that the middle class is people who receive from about 17 thousand rubles. quite a lot, more than 70% are confident, "the head of state said.)

            Nothing of the kind, VAZ has forbidden to sell to dealers without additional options. Thus, for Vesta, as empty as a drum, at least 950 thousand (if you find it), Grant from 800 tr for an empty one. If you're lucky. And so there are no less than 1.000 cars.

        Starting today, gasoline at Rosneft filling stations has risen in price by 30 kopecks, last month by almost a ruble.
        Eggs have risen in price by more than 100% since the beginning of the year, carrots at the beginning of the year 35 rubles, now around 90.
        Etc. etc.

      So the topic is about something else, about our dreams when a rich neighbor's cow dies. And not about our nag. It is necessary to understand the agenda.

      True, even the neighbor's third generation of our waiters is not dying, but nothing, we are in no hurry either, maybe at least our grandchildren will wait for this national holiday.

      To me, too, binomial Newton .. And what - someone seriously believed that you can print a few tricks of candy wrappers - and not get inflation? Another thing is that mattress makers seem to think that this time too they will be able to dump inflation onto the rest of the world. But it looks like it didn't work out, the sums are too large.

      The Russian Federation is like a part of the world market, subordinate to the liberals. Therefore, even in our country the prices for what we ourselves produce are hitting the ceiling. Well, how to make the bourgeois sell cheap domestically under such a model - when he can sell at exorbitant prices for the cordon? Capitalism, sir ... Say - the market will put everything in its place .. Maybe it will - only we will take a break from hunger by that moment. We will not fit into this market.

        This is not the reason for future inflation in the United States. And it is clearly different from ours. “The pandemic has contributed to the awakening of the workforce. Across different industries and income classes, they [workers] realize that they have more rights now than ever. They require better working conditions, higher wages, more flexibility and a sense of purpose from the job, ”the forecast says.

        As a result, by the fourth quarter of 2022, employers in the United States will have to sharply raise wages - for half of the population of the country with lower incomes, they will grow by an average of 15%. The consequence will be a jump in prices. "

          Oh sure. They demand an increase in wages precisely because of inflation - it is already banal not to live with old incomes. And what is the point of working if you still cannot feed yourself? And where, then, can the capital get labor force - if no one will do anything?

          It is only here that people are ready to work hard on the bourgeois for a pittance. And even then - people are gradually starting to take their heads.

I remembered an old and a bit sad anecdote about this: in 1948 the USSR Cinematography Committee bought the American film "Grapes of Wrath" (1940) to show our people all the ulcers and vices of capitalism.
        However, a few days later, the film was withdrawn from the box office because Soviet viewers drew attention to the fact that a poor, bankrupt farmer could buy a used truck.

      Inflation is taking place in Russia in a strange way. Against the background of a general rise in prices, a frenzied rise in prices for everything, Rosstat has reduced the cost of land in the Krasnodar Territory by exactly half. The population really began to blow into their ears that this is a blessing. They say you will pay less taxes. And the same version was presented as a blessing to the head of state. Driving around the settlements, the leadership is trying to calm the people down. They say it does not depend on us. But everyone knows that the lie is covered only by the fact that Rosstat is based on data from local BTI, and BTI is only executing the will of the leadership. This was the beginning of the land acquisition program for various needs. Build a road, Hotel on the coast,. In general, this whole situation with land markdowns in a very strange way coincided with the program of weaning land plots of the population.
