我見 我思 我聞


房價物價上掦 生活品質下降


遠在柯羅拉多州春田市的一個舊房,室內到處是塗鴉 ,裝璜陣舊不堪,要價六十萬, 還有人搶著要用現金支付,使得经紀人不敢相信。


近年來,由于特斯拉領頭遷入德州奧斯汀,眾多來自加州人口大量湧入德州,房地產十分火爆, 加上近月來的木材建材價格上漲,房價居高不下,而且已是供不應求,建商無房可建。


自從聯邦政府大量撒錢以來,加上對外國之關稅政策,使得各種物價上升,小市民走進超市發現民生用品上漲一半以上,錢不值錢,這就是通貨膨脹之現象了。


拜登政府一直努力於大型基建帶動就業及经济復甦,但是國會兩黨不同調,通過原來之大預算可能有困難,這些龎大數據如何弭平預算,不可能只是再加印鈔票來解決。


今天要解決赤字預算是個巨大之挑戰,如果我們一直是寅吃卯糧,不是長久之計。a






All Prices Are Going Up 


In Colorado Springs, Colorado, a dilapidated house full of dirt with profane graffiti on almost every wall has the asking price of $600,000. The real estate salesman was very surprised that some people still want to buy it with cash money. 


In Texas, after many companies have moved to the state, house prices sky-rocketed. In Austin, Texas, some houses have already doubled in price. The problem is that all the building materials have gone up in price, especially lumber which has tripled in price since last year. 


After the federal relief bill was passed, many people spent their money and all the basic goods went up at least twenty percent. 


President Biden wants to pass the infrastructure bill in Congress to gain employment and stimulate the whole economy. But in the meantime, inflation is already here. 


Today we can’t just print more money to help the economy. Our basic problem is to balance the nation’s budget.
