core may be 5% but even using cooked numbers from bls the all items is almost 7%. That's the highest in 40 years. Luckily none of us need food or gas so there's that.

I'll accept that.

Considering the nominal rate has been hovering around 1.5% for many years, it's easy to believe this is the highest rate in 40 years.

The price of gas is extremely volatile.
Current average price of E85 is at $3.03.
In April, 2020 it was $1.94.
May, 2019 $2.95
May, 2018 $2.99
February, 2016 $1.87
May, 2014 $3.75
February, 2009 $1.98
July, 2008 $4.11

Maybe if so many people didn't make the lifestyle choices to commute >100 miles every day in vehicles that get <20 mpg, they wouldn't feel like such slaves to gas price fluctuations.

I'll name two. We're back in the Paris Climate Accords, and world leaders don't think of us as a laughingstock, with a former president who is too out of shape to walk and takes a golf cart during summits while the other leaders walk.

Not really a good thing, but I'll humor you and say it's neutral

This is just laughable. You know it, I know it, and everyone knows it. Biden is a fricking joke. Other leaders don't respect him

If Trump didn’t exist, he’d be close. Biden sucks, but Trump put this country in the toilet in the first place.

I've always argued that Trump shite the bed on Covid. But let's not forget that Covid hysteria was largely ginned up on the Left and for overt political reasons - and it was successful, Biden is president.

But my question - in what ways was the country in the toilet in January of 2020 (before the Covid shitshow)?

Why are we giving hundreds of billions to follow rules. The climate agenda is ridiculously cooked as well. The whole thing is practically a fairytale

You really have to not be paying attention if you think Biden isn’t a laughing stock and not respected. Who even gives a shite of socialist countries like us? Oh, because we asked them to pay us the trillions they owe us?

My financial future, but that’s 100% due to my actions, not the federal government’s actions. So I guess conservative values win yet again.
