From deficit spending, to fossil fuel, our best experts have been here to guide us; and if that's insufficient, there's this:

Just as the “new” modern monetary theory teaches us that unlimited government spending has no effect on inflation — “Milton Friedman is no longer running the show”, MMT disciple Joseph Biden said in 2019 — those same economists assured us that we could shut down the oil industry and still have cheap, plentiful gas. Phew!

Of course, that reckless, feckless liar, President Trump predicted the opposite on the campaign trail, just because he’s mean, and wanted to scare us.

“It’s an incredible thing that’s happened over the last few years, a lot of great things, and you’re paying, what, $2 a gallon for your gasoline? That’s okay,” he said. “You know what that’s like? That’s like a tax cut,” he pointed out. “That’s bigger than a tax cut. If Biden got in, you’d be paying $7, $8, $9. Then they’d say, ‘Get rid of your car.'”

Fortunately, our media masters rushed out the heavy artillery, and put an end to Trump’s fear-mongering, and the rest is history.
