No, I haven't. I don't eat fast food or drink 'sodas' because I am not a low T fat obese sickly slob like most of Americans are. What something costs at McDonald's is irrelevant to me. Stop eating fast food! That's likely where your problems are. I am a single male so yes I conceded that it is different for me than someone with 2 to 4 kids and a family with a stay at home wife. I get my groceries at Wal Mart, drive a POS daily driver car with 130k miles on it I max all my retirement accounts. I'm not one of these morons out there eating McDonalds or fast food everyday driving a car with a $700 note and wasting money on a bunch of frivolous shite like most Americans do that don't have $500 for an emergency. Joe Biden doesn't control my lifestyle. I'm going to max my retirement accounts no matter who is in office. Don't let elected or non elected bureaucrats decide your fate in life. Come on man!

Weekend at Biden's

He met with Mitterand on his way to Berlin where he went toe-to-toe with Hitler, looked him in the eye and whispered, "Just three words: Pearl Harbor...DON'T!"

.....and did he say his son Beau Biden singlehandedly died to save the French people from Donald Trump?

I don't know you (and based on your last don't want to). I used McDonalds as a point of reference. Could care less what you do or don't eat. Point is, things are MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE whether you are adult enough to admit it or not. Regardless of what you choose to eat, in most cases if it cost you 10 bucks in 2019, it will cost you $14 or more today. If you pay more for the same or less, you are worse off. Regardless of how much you do or don't save.

That's just not true. One pound of 85/15 grass fed beef at WalMart is $5.99. Why would I go to McDonald's and get less and a far lower quality product? Again, Joe Biden (or any President) doesn't determine how I live. Only fools think like that. I'm responsible for my financial successes and failures. Nobody else.

"Don't listen to Republicans trying to spin the President's words into something they're not. Obviously the President could've met with Mr. Mitterrand in the 80s or 90s, which is certainly 'recent' in history."
-KJP's certain response if anyone asks her about this.

I care about prices in 2019 and prices today. Do you use amazon? If so, you can easily lookup what you ordered prior to 2020 and compare prices with today.

Interest rates under Trump were 3% for a 30 year mortgage. Today they are close to 7%. A 300K home loan would have been $1265 principal and interest. At 7%, it is $1996. To get a 1265 payment today, you'd need to buy a 190K home. So you've lost 110K in purchasing power at the same payment point.

I'm not making the same that I was in 2019. Would a 'liberal' tell you that they and they alone are responsible for their financial successes or failures? That isn't 'liberal' ideology. You've tried to paint me as some 'liberal' and that just isn't the case. Joe Biden doesn't get to decide what I spend my money on. Neither did Trump. I can eat at home for a fraction of what you are paying at McDonald's and I think that is the problem here. You aren't making sound choices. Let me guess you have a huge car payment as well because you 'need' it. I refinanced to a 2.8% rate for my home and anyone with half a brain did at the time as well. Again, choices. All this stuff you are posting is irrelevant to many of us that made good choices years ago.

quote:Are you making 40% more? I got a pay raise each year too, but it didn't add up to 40%. Assuming you DID get 40%, you'd definitely be better off if you were not paying the additional 40%, right? So things are worse today.

You aren't making sound choices.
quote:Whether you eat at home (for a fraction), eat at a fast food restaurant (McDonalds), a fancy restaurant, at a BBQ place or a libtard vegan place you are paying 40% MORE today than you did in 2019. Paying $1.40 for something is worse than paying $1 for the same thing.

quote:If you have to divert with personal attacks and ridicule, you've already lost. Just because you benefitted from the low interest rates under Trump does not change the fact that the situation today is worse. It actually proves my point. So THANKS.

The fact you are rambling to attempt a defense of this corrupt, dementia addled old fool, speaks more about your choices than mine.
No, fuel, groceries, and the cost of housing are not irrelevant to any of us, nor do we have a choice to pay any less.

It is what it is regarding 24, although I do think the Dems will float another name out this summer. A name being another puppet. The thing is given the choice we will likely have it it pretty obvious. If folks reelect a dem this cycle this country is very much closely over. And if you vote based on perceived personalities instead of actual policies?
