But I don’t have any extra money thanks to inflation. I have heard this from so many people. Happy about their salary raises but spending over a hundred dollars after every trip to Home Depot, grocery store, etc….

Thanks Joe Biden for this crappy economy.

The more you make, the more they take, plus they deny you the benefits, opportunities and tax breaks that others receive.

This is called wealth redistribution.

I’m making about 20% more now than I was two years ago. I was able to live comfortably then and set aside some good savings.

I’m just about tapped out now. It’s starting to get horribly depressing. I work just for the government to rob me, either through taxation or inflation.

Same... wife and I are pulling in 30% more than we were at this time in 2020 and it feels about the same. It's ridiculous

I can’t imagine how people at the bottom end of the income are making it. It’s ridiculous out there.

In 2019 we were pretty comfy and I had it all planned out to have everything paid for in 10 years and retire with two new paid for vehicles.
Then shithead Joe and my wife's cancer diagnosis rolled in and fricked everything up. She's losing the cancer battle, had to go part time and waiting for disability to kick in.
Volunteering for overtime isn't quite making up the difference...

Try owning a business

Everything is more expensive

Meaning every margin is tighter

Freaking sucks

I’ve been hyperventilating since approximately May

And ETA - frick Joe Biden

And the outcome of you pay more for everything in the Biden economy is the Feds raising interest rates

Corporate greed is what's to blame. Corporations not paying taxes or very little. Then we have to pay to up for it.

Can't blame the President for everything. He's def fricked a lot up but he isn't responsible for everything happening.

Most people are not getting raises and their employers are tightening up financially.

No amount of media can hide what is happening with any lie or spin right now. It's too blatant and people see it.

Brandon and Obama have gone massive overreach and have no plans to stop.

Up until now I’ve been very blessed to be able to provide for my family in a way that has allowed my wife to stay home and tend to our children.

Now, for the 1st time in 6 years, it looks like we may not be able to continue. It pisses me off that these crooked, elected thieves have that sort of influence in my household and that it ultimately will affect my children most of all when their mother has to go back to work…

I’m with you. I received a nice raise this pass April but it doesn’t feel like it. On top of inflation, I have 3 young kids in daycare which I’m paying $2k a month and 2 kids in therapy which is an extra $600 a month AFTER insurance. We’re barely getting by but it’s not enough to put money away.

Im sure groceries and fuel is kicking my butt, but we just started private school x 2, and that’s hurting worse.

None of you actually received a raise. It's nothing more than companies knowing that you need COLA to literally keep coming to work with inflation being so high. You needed at least a 10-12% pay increase just to not lose money month over month.
