With inflation, multiple jobs are needed.
Govt has just declared war on the middle class. We are expendable evidently.

How many jobs do you have?

Unless you count posting on TD, then it’s 3 where I put in OT with regularity.

Well sorry to hear that but, news flash, lower income people have worked multiple jobs for many decades.

Not true at all. Unlike Democrats, most Republicans understand some basic economics.
Go on the PT and tell everyone that Trump shares the spending/inflation blame with Biden. See how that works out.

Ive been doing that for 4 years.
Unlike you, they understand it. Though they push much of the blame on Congress.

That's a broad statement and rather stupidly stated. Some have, some havent'. Some work part time, some do not. Trying to use this to your advantage is quite the simplistic argument. Try a better argument.
Let's start with the border. Does the influx of over 30 million illegal immigrants into this country help or hurt wages, inflation, and job availability?

horseshite.
I challenge you, right now, to start a thread on the PT. Tell everyone that Trump and Biden are equally to blame for the inflation crisis and neither deserves to be in the White House.
Let’s see how ya boys respond.

Crazy thing is a lot of those openings aren't really open, HR is keeping it "open" for employee morale and to file away resumes.

So few of these people harping on stock market gains realize that most of it is just inflationary. So your stocks are more expensive? Congrats. So is everything we need to live our lives.
The best part is inflation is not a deductible event, so you pay taxes on inflation when you sell your asset.

Irrelevant. They are doing jobs we don’t want to do. I don’t see any illegal immigrants as engineers, CPA’s, doctors, etc. they are doing shite jobs that would otherwise be unfilled.

Why has no administration done anything of value to change immigration over the last 40 years?

They have. The Biden administration is chartering planes and flying them here. The meaningful change is just a shitty one.
Lowly educated, lowly skilled people stuck in a country with declining jobs for people with no education or skill.
We are fricked. If you look at its actions, the goal of our government is to keep wages low and cause massive competition for low level jobs.

Ask anyone on that board, this is a discussion we've had for years.
Dont blame others for your own ignorance.

Cmon man. Do it. Make a claim that both presidents are equally to blame, and for some reason, MAGA’s only blame one of them. Call out the irony.
Call it a case study. I bet you 1000 Shrute bucks it doesn’t go like you claim it would.

Ive made that claim for 4 years, youre just ignorant and terrified of the Poli board/
And its split three ways. Obama, Trump and Biden.

Probably because it isn't equal, you fricking halfwit.

Trump had to do something because of an unprecedented pandemic. Biden had teh benefit of almost a full year of seeing teh pandemic and still chose to print money left and right and had shite economic policies to go with it.
Trump absolutely could have done better in hindsight, but you can frick right off trying to equate him and Biden.

they are no job openings because of record low unemployment numbers, everybody has jobs
Except we know those numbers were best case scenario "massaged", worst case outright bullshite.
Unemployment even with those numbers should be even lower given how many people left the workforce during COVID.
Then you talk about underemployment, which I would imagine is sky high.
