    Some. But the world economy is now dependent on the Federal Reserve. Last aggressive rate hikes were just prior to the dot com crash. Similar pattern will follow when they keep on, keepin on.

    Fortunately trump took over a growing economy, but he has done little to bring wages up to a meaningful number. Why is that?

    Well, yes, inflation causes real wages to decline. But why have wages not increased to keep pace with inflation?
