Americans seeing ‘terrible inflation’: Former Obama economist



Former Obama Economic Council Chairman Jason Furman argues that the U.S. threw ‘every log on fire at once,’ which caused red-hot inflation. #FOXBusiness

JASON FURMAN: I’m someone that believes in a low unemployment rate. I like the idea of running the economy hot. But boy, did we throw every log on the fire at once…almost start to burn the house down, and that’s not a good way to go about it.

I was able to make $972,000 within 3 Months with a capital of $200,000 with the help of ALEX L ORLOFF advisory service. I learned a lot about buying when there is fear in the market . I use to get shaken out and panic sell but now I buy more when I see the low prices…
