People can’t stop the Federal Reserve from inflating the money supply, nor can we prevent them from adding more fuel to their fire.
We can only fight the fire started by the arsonists at the Fed from spreading further into our lives.
In this article, I want to review the ways that people fight the Fed’s fire—higher prices everywhere and the reasons why everyone should be actively fighting against inflation.
These techniques require some thinking, choosing, and acting, which isn’t a pleasant thing to do. Budgeting helps us set a pattern in life, and the Fed’s inflation disrupts our “pattern” in a bad way.
