The core of "stagflation" back then (1970's) was due to the oil embargo and the astounding jump in the price of fuel for both cars and commercial vehicles. The higher prices soared at every step of the production and distribution process.

That we have it again is almost for the same reason.
The difference is now the higher prices for energy throughout the economy are being forced upon us BY OUR OWN GOVERNMENT.

What did Mr. Jefferson say about governments that no longer serve the governed?

A Fishrrman "not-off-the-wall-at-all" prediction:

Eventually, Ukraine will be vanquished, a good portion of the country reduced to rubble, the core of its young men killed, and Russia will STILL occupy the Donbas and Crimea.

And that is how the war will end.

With one other consideration:
The USA will be billions and BILLIONS of dollars (maybe a trillion?) more in debt, with absolutely NOTHING to show for having given away that money to Ukraine.

End the war now.
FORCE Ukraine to the negotiating table, before the rest of the country is wrecked.

That was the backhoe... Got a 12" crease in my skull from catching a backhoe bucket full of rocks at full swing... My ballcap always tips to that side. Knocked me right out of my boots.

Bloomberg Law by Robert Iafolla 5/2/2024

•   Injunction arises from constitutional challenge to NLRB

•   SpaceX worked around order to transfer case to California

SpaceX secured a temporary reprieve from a National Labor Relations Board case alleging the Elon Musk-led company illegally fired workers.

The US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit on Thursday granted SpaceX’s request to block the NLRB’s administrative case pending the company’s challenge to a lower court’s “effective denial” of its request for an injunction. The single-sentence order contained no legal reasoning and simply announced the granting of the company’s emergency motion.

The order stems from SpaceX’s lawsuit alleging that the NLRB’s structure and how it administers federal labor law violates the US Constitution.

The company’s underlying arguments go beyond just shielding it from an unfair labor practice case, as they threaten the existence of the only means to enforce the National Labor Relations Act.

SpaceX obtained an injunction halting the NLRB proceedings from the New Orleans-based Fifth Circuit—which has precedent favorable to the company’s legal position—despite a February order that called for the case to be transferred to a California federal court.

No.

Close the universities.
Send the students home and tell them to get a real job.
Fire the faculties and administrators and BLACKLIST them from ever working in education again.
Give the campuses away to the homeless and illegals, they'll make better use of them.

Keep ONLY the professional schools (medical, scientific, technical) where the students might actually LEARN something. But give those institutions a "good cleaning out", as well.

Perhaps keep a modicum of private schools that accept NO government funding. Hillsdale is an example.
Forbid "student loans" -- make them pay up in advance, or borrow the money privately.

Have I made myself clear?
