Did the COVID stimulus cause inflation? | The Problem With Jon Stewart
“For the last half century, our economic policy has just been a flow chart where no matter what the input is, the answer is the worker must pay the price.” - Jon Stewart took on America’s approach to fighting inflation in Season 2.
"The March jobs report was another big one, coming in way above expectations at 303,000 net new jobs, and 22k more in upward revisions from previous months. Average hourly earnings are up 4.1% over the past year. So with inflation at 3.2% over the past year workers in America are not only seeing the best job market since the 1960s - almost 60 years! - but are also now clearly getting ahead and beating inflation."
