Dr. Anne Bradley is right to point out that a generally higher level of prosperity to start with is helping us, but at a certain point, who would have predicted, for example, that the price of gasoline would double since President Biden’s inauguration? My gut feeling is that there will be a certain point where things get far more difficult than they are now. I obviously hope I’m wrong.
