The Economic Squeeze of Inflation

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / The Economic Squeeze of Inflation
Published: March 13, 2022 by VPR Producer

Inflation just seems to keep on rising month after month. Between January 2021 and January 2022, prices across the board went up by 7.5%. What’s next? Economics professor Dr. Christian Vom Lehn joins us to breakdown what’s fueling these continued price hikes and how the invasion of Ukraine by Russia may make certain goods and services pricier. Suburban wife and mom Carrie Leonard also joins us this week to share how her family is dealing with inflation and saving money where they can.


Guest Information:

  • Dr. Christian Vom Lehn, assistant professor, economics, Brigham Young University.
  • Carrie Leonard, suburban Chicago resident.
