The sort of ignorance it takes to link this to Ukraine is baffling. Inflation has been heating up since covid and the US had committed to interest rate increases late last year:

Americans who have been to the grocery store lately or started their holiday shopping may have noticed that consumer prices have spiked. The annual rate of inflation in the United States hit 6.2% in October 2021, the highest in more than three decades, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Other inflation metrics also have shown significant increases in recent months, though not to the same extent as the CPI.

Because if inflation continues to grow then investments are less profitable. So this interest rate increase will effectively counter the inflation meaning money is harder to borrow and less competition for investors. The major reason inflation increased was becuase of the amount of money in circulation and the low cost of borrowing.

The stage is set for the the emergence of China as the next world/economic power. China is present in all countries of the world already.
The adoption of the Chinese yuan as the currency of choice for international trade is the only other action left

Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in your midst, lest I consume you on the way, for you are a stiff-necked people.”
Exodus 33:3 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/exo.33.3.NKJV

Let's Pray,
Sovereign God of all Creation, Your humble subjects are before You today, thank You for Your teachings and Your Word in the past, We request that once again You enlighten us with Your truth and cause us to attain to the height You will have us. Cleanse and forgive us if our sins, we pray thee in the name of Jesus our Lord. Amen. Thank You for it is done.

Dear Followers of Christ,
Many people pray and cry for the Spirit and presence of God in their lives, maybe because they have seen the power manifested by the carriers of God's presence and they want it too. But many fail to understand that the presence of God (manifold, active presence) is a double-edged sword. God in His mercy and wisdom has withheld this from many and they get angry and frustrated. This is due to ignorance.
The Presence of God is a term for the active manifestation and availability of God and His power in a person or place. The Presence of God, is where God is, actively. And like You might expect, there is a very low tolerance for sin in the presence of God, many have suffered much because they have failed to realize this. The Psalmist says "... Goodness and mercy shall follow me..." There is a reason why mercy is attached and not only goodness. If the Spirit of God is goodness, then man with his corrupted nature is badness and they are immiscible. An intermediary is needed mercy.
Only when you have been purged of your sin and have obtained the mercy of God can the presence of God be bestowed on you. So if you don't have it yet, don't sweat it, you may still have a work to do in yourself. And follow the Spirit's leading.
Peace.

Joe Biden dismantling the Keystone Project is one of the reasons of this inflation. Biden is a weak leader simple and short.

God bless Donald John Trump

That decision was a stupid idea. What was he thinking of?
Now he's embarrassing himself on global stage begging Venezuela and Saudi Arabia to pump more oil, while those ones continue to ignore him.

In an era where u printed 6 trillion dollars as stimulus package for covid, u should anticipate inflation and keeping energy price low should have been a priority.
Did they really expect china to buy up all this excess dollars in form of treasury bills.

Democrats really messed up with biden choice. We knew anybody they present against Trump will win, then why the option of an old man struggling with dementia.
