We’ve been doing this since Reagan. Nobody has stopped it. Trump spent like a drunken sailor which kicked all this off and Biden didn’t slow down.

Since Reagan? No we haven't.

We didn't hit 100% of GDP until well into Obama's administration. Trump's spending was level with it until Congress passed PPP and Covid spending and never took it back down.

You can lie about the employment numbers and the budget.

You can’t hide inflation.

I decided to buy a large "Bacon Double Smashed" combo from Jack in The Box today. It cost nearly $19.

And the worst part is that I only ate half of it because it was so bad. The burger tasted like shite and fries were tasteless and burnt.

Not to worry I’ve been told that’s it’s just transitory. Relax it will probably be fine in two weeks.

Reagan spent like a drunken sailor. He spent more than any president before him.

Antiperspirant is not good for you. Use a natural deodorant.

Has it ever occurred to some of y’all that there is no difference between the Dems and Rebubs?

They both suck.

They conveniently divide and conquer while we are left holding the bill.

I just paid for turkey sliced at Sam's club more than double what it was 4 years ago.

I like numbers and keep track of everything with quicken.

The price increases on groceries in 4 fricking years is completely insane. The sad part it's I see no signs of slowing down.

One must shop around on the internet to find the best deal. I was looking at a product on Amazon this morning. There’s a lot of resellers and the manufacturer but on a whim I checked Walmart app and it was 1/3 cheaper than Amazon. Amazon also had “delivery in your area unavailable” from about 1/2 the sellers while Walmart had all available for free delivery/shipping.

Since the Feds will keep printing money to try and pay the ever rising interest on the debt, it will only get worse.

get the equate nasal spray.. Pre Covid it was 1.88 then during covid it was 2.22.. Now it is 3.44

I keep a bottle of off-brand 4-way for congestion to keep from getting sinus infections. It was like $1-2 at HEB. Phenylephrine only. Then the FDA decided to go to war with the only non-habit-forming nasal spray, and it disappeared off all the shelves. Comes back at $5-7 for off-brand anywhere I see it. Plus it now has hydrochloride in it. So less effective AND habit-forming now. Way to go, feds.
