Tavia Hunt, the wife of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, recently shared her views on a hot-button issue-rising inflation in the US. Inflation has remained a concern for many, and Hunt voiced her opinion on the potential dangers it poses.

Hunt is no stranger to sharing her opinions on social media, whether they pertain to the economy or her beloved Chiefs. After the team's 22-17 win over the Falcons last week, she took to Instagram to call out fans for complaining about the officiating.

She reposted a message emphasizing that every team faces controversial calls from officials, making it clear she won't back down from defending her team or her viewpoints.

On Saturday, she reshared an Instagram reel featuring interviews where individuals discussed the impact of inflation, adding her thoughts on how America could face similar economic struggles to those experienced by ancient Rome.

"INFLATION ruined Rome & we're not far behind," Tavia said.

Inflation in the Roman Empire

The Roman Empire faced significant challenges in the third century, with hyperinflation being one of many contributing factors to its decline. Alongside inflation, the Romans dealt with coin devaluation, excessive military spending, political turmoil, and civil strife.

Repeated power struggles, invasions by external forces like the Goths and Sassanids, and frequent assassinations of emperors left the empire in a state of chaos. Despite these problems, the Roman Empire managed to survive for two more centuries before its eventual collapse.
