Great talk... So good to see women talk about economics with true passion/insight. Massive hyperinflation has been taking place in the USA for over 20 years when it comes to health care/health insurance which the government now FORCES us to buy. Another area of hyperinflation is the cost of a college education. Interesting to see how we ignore the fact that many of the STAPLES are definitely rising as affirmed in the video. The healthcare costs in the USA are so out of touch with reality that the only "solution" is for the entire system to collapse, the same holds true for colleges/universities.

kevinsbott in the UK particularly London the hyperinflation is housing

[@marsmotion]

great interview. she's right on target. btw shes not saying that there is supposed to be inflation, she's saying that its happening and is real in core aspects of the consumer economy, food, rent, etc. listen to this and you will learn much. fantastic!

[@BigHenFor]

stevo728822 Have you considered the cost of personal care? food, and the cost of living in general?

[@calwianka]

Merryn EXCELLENT INTERVIEWS! You're the FIFTH BEATLE!

[@KCatalano88]

I've been saying this for years! Bravo!

[@johnburman966]

Intuitive knowledge. Yes we know this stuff but economic bullshit baffles our brains.

[@seller559]

Very interesting.

[@lopiyo]

This looks interesting, i think ill check the book.

[@peterwakeman9930]

the cost of buying a house with deposit insurance and tax with cost of looking after it. In new zealand in late 1940's created debt free money to fund low cost houses

[@adammac6386]

Paul Hodges says deflation, Pippa says inflation. i'm back to square one.

[@gardenmamacita]

Bump for relevance in 2020. Not she references the NFT at the end without calling it.

[@klam77]

Biflation,stagflation. Meaningless things remain more affordable, essentials to live bankrupt you

[@DIYDaveT]

What part of "it's a Global Debt Ponzi" is so difficult to understand?

[@zentiyobaird3262]

Unfortunately she is slightly off with this inflation prediction, we have been experiencing inflation in some sectors such as food, housing and the stock market but we have been experiencing deflation in everything else, we will experience major debt deflation first, then the central banks will panic and churn up the printing presses which will cause hyperinflation!

[@alext.5727]

+Zentiyo Baird "we have been experiencing inflation in some sectors such as food, housing and the stock market but we have been experiencing deflation in everything else"- She talks about it at 8:00

[@paulhanson6008]

She actually stated the same.....Biflation

[@peterwakeman9930]

price increases for renting houses due to not enough houses

[@jesuisbecoming6636]

[@theodorerooseveltcharlesto1555]

this will be very New when people find out the 100,000 ,200,000, 300,000 dollar annuity plan the worked for their whole life goes up in smoke. Millions of Baby Boomer getting the shaft. All at once That is New

[@theodorerooseveltcharlesto1555]

I don't think they will be happy

[@theodorerooseveltcharlesto1555]

Oh yea buy the way pay your taxes

[@theodorerooseveltcharlesto1555]

Your Government Has Stole all your money and left you with trillions of dollars in debt. LOL real funny

[@zzebowa]

Yet four years later it hasnt happened.

[@abc8722]

Hello from 2020. Still feeling good about the situation?

[@zzebowa]

@@abc8722 yep, another year and fuck all

[@googlebanmetoomuch2601]

These things take time!😉 Welcome to 2021!👋

[@DIYDaveT]

So much fun to watch smart women talk.

[@h35biznez]

2022, the 666 System is on the way. Haha, people didn't believe me XD

[@frenchmanntube]

What a load of bla bla bla, learned nothing here. Most points being made are obvious. Women should not talk about money and stick to what they do best - spending it.

[@gmshadowtraders]

So food and energy prices are supposed to soar...oh deary me another silly economist who doesnt understand or accept DEFLATION

[@DegenerateSpeculator]

You're right but.....that will be short lived, as we know what the fed will do after that

[@davidscott4295]

We can only hope that the deflation point is sharp enough to pop inflation that is created by fraudulent speculation.

[@BigHenFor]

gmshadowtraders Have out considered the impact of inflation in consumer spending? How do producers shift their cost increases? Where? Especially as wage growth for many is still trailing pre-2008 levels and near negative interest rates for savers? How rich do consumers feel?

[@craigthebrute3759]

Comment hasn’t aged well

[@gmshadowtraders]

@@craigthebrute3759 Yeah only 5 years too late, and oh let's see an ENERGY CRISIS that brought about the inflation. Nice try tho
