Biden administration to fight raging inflation by starting Christmas music in April to “boost morale.”

In a surprising move aimed at lifting spirits and tackling inflation, the Biden administration has announced an unconventional strategy: starting Christmas music in April.

With inflation rates soaring faster than Santa’s sleigh on Christmas Eve, the administration is taking a festive approach to ease the economic woes gripping the nation. In a press conference held earlier today, the White House Press Secretary declared, “We believe that by infusing a bit of yuletide cheer into the airwaves, we can boost morale and bring back some of that holiday magic to help combat inflation.”

Experts are divided on whether this strategy will have any real impact on the economy, but there’s no denying the potential for joyous side effects. “I mean, who doesn’t love a good rendition of ‘Jingle Bells’ in April?” remarked one economist, who wished to remain anonymous, likely due to the seriousness of discussing such a topic.

Critics, however, are already chiming in, calling the plan a frivolous attempt to distract from more pressing issues. “This is just a band-aid solution,” exclaimed one MAGA skeptic. “We need real economic reform, not jingle bells on repeat.”

Nevertheless, the Biden administration remains undeterred, with plans to roll out the jolly tunes across the nation’s airwaves and streaming platforms as early as next week. Rumor has it that the playlist will include classics like “Winter Wonderland,” “Deck the Halls,” and of course, Mariah Carey’s iconic “All I Want for Christmas Is You.”

Only time will tell if this dubious intervention will have the desired effect on inflation. But for now, let’s deck the halls, crank up the carols, and hope for a little economic miracle this holiday season—er, spring. After all, it’s never too early to spread a little holiday cheer, even if it means breaking out the mistletoe before the Easter bunny has even had a chance to hide his eggs.
