In my previous blog post, I analyzed the recent inflation episode. Inflation, which was and remains a broad-based phenomenon, peaked in mid-2022 and has since declined sharply, though progress toward the Federal Reserve’s 2% target may have recently stalled. Five years after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, prices are 10% above their prepandemic trend. In this post, I will argue that inflation was primarily the product of the fiscal deficits incurred in response to the pandemic.

Inflation peaked in mid-2022 and has since declined sharply, though progress towards the Federal Reserve’s 2% target may have stalled recently.

Years ago, I was looking for a Bible study group. While taking a walk, I came across a sign advertising exactly that!I had to check it out. It turned out to be a Neocatechumenal way meeting, a catholic cult that follows a charismatic leader. The priest gave a long speech about the founder and refused to answer my questions. When I was asked, I said I wouldn't meet them again. They said God wanted me to be there and that their lives had improved by joining the cult. I never went back.

Something we know it's right, but that demands we sacrifice something dear. We've been running away from it. Immersing ourselves in all kinds of distractions to not remember it for so long, that we've forgotten it. Work, the News, relationship drama.

This way you'll leave enough time for your body to get rid of the cortisol it produces when waking up, and you won't crash in the afternoon.
