Unsustainable practices lead to exhaustion of resources and subsequent spikes in prices. Prices today will be nothing compared to the prices we face when the earth exhausted of topsoil, the sea is exhausted of fish, and the water table exhausted of clean water.
Voting against the environment in favor of lower prices will ultimately lead to higher prices.
Global energy prices are high because of wars in Europe.
The rise of right wing forces globally and anti immigration forces, is a consequence of immigration from regions that are not only crushed by wars, but also by climate instability.
Since solutions are too complex and require global cooperation, its easier for governments to not do anything.
As this keeps up, and larger areas of the world become uninhabitable, more migration will occur, leading to more power to demagogues and dictators.
Alternatively, if the fed didn't just print money to pay for unnecessary vote-buying schemes then the inflation rate would have been only minimally (if at all) impacted by the points you made.
If you want a straight line drawn in markers for something like the global economy - I mean, sure?
Given the forum though, I hesitate to place you amongst such company. I am guessing you know what the Fed's remit is, and therefore WHY they are printing money.
