"Believe you me, I know the prices have gone up. But, I will also tell you that prices have gone up worldwide," Wild said. "The inflation that we are seeing in this country, as painful as it is, is nothing compared to the inflation that they’re seeing throughout Europe. And so where did we go wrong is the question? It’s not that we went wrong. It is that Putin is an evil dictator who invaded Ukraine and created a cascade of circumstances that led to the kind of inflation that we have now."
"We were just coming out of a pandemic with an excellent economic recovery when that invasion of Ukraine started," Wild claimed additionally. "That is what started the inflation and it’s going to take a while, unfortunately, to completely tamp it down."
