It’s complicated, according to Claudia Sahm, a former Federal Reserve economist, who told Slate that on paper the Biden administration made all the right moves to combat inflation.

“The good way to deal with inflation is to have people’s wages catch up,” Sahm explained.

According to Sahm, that’s unlikely to ever happen.

And you really want to be careful what you wish for,” Sahm said.

When this happens, Sahm notes that both people and the government point fingers for inflation.
