The impact of the global pandemic is still being felt economically, in spite of the great increases in jobs and the economy. When consumer demand is far greater than output, inflation is the inevitable result. The price of gasoline when rising plays an outsized influence on how we view the economy and especially inflation. Today’s price at the pump certainly impacts us significantly, and inflation is no laughing matter. But we would be wrong to overreact and place blame where it does not belong.

So many states had passed bills prohibiting trans athletes from participating in girls sports programs that I thought this must be a widespread problem overwhelming our nation’s schools.
