Another perspective from the CBO that is a hard sell. It's seems a 10% cost increase will supersede a larger increase in purchasing power.

Another well written piece that skillfully connects relevant factors. My only two thoughts are to share that I'm old enough to remember the interest rates of the mid and late 70's, and to say that re the presidential race I hope readers acknowledge that one of the two old guys competing for the job in no way represents anything traditional; so I am uncertain about the actual effects these things will have on the race.
