I learned that the cause of all inflation is energy prices, according to the pro Trump propaganda.

If you let the dirty hippies do anything to protect any inch of the environment it raises the cost of gas. Since everything gets shipped that raises the cost of everything else.

Honestly decent propaganda since energy costs do tend to inflate first.

The person I talked to was absolutely unwilling to consider that the number of dollars in circulation affects the cost of energy or anything else.

Of course, US M2 is not friendly to Dear Leader so I can see why not.
