But we do have a right to ownership of business do we not?

The man just explained the hardships his business is going through and you replied with a super duper dumbass response, right on cue.

Paying $5 gas and $7 diesel are byproducts of the fake President Biden.

He was goading Russia into Ukraine with the NATO crap.
Coming out of COVID and he decided to go back to the Globalists energy policies when inflation needed lower transportation costs.
Intentionally flooding the US with upwards of 15-20 million illegals and illegally funding them with government benefits and funding.

Our gas is not high because of Iran. It’s high because Globalists are fighting Trump because he’s taken over the global economic reins from London and elsewhere

He's so dumb, AOC had to tell him that the ’Federal Reserve’ isn't a VIP table at a trendy D.C. steakhouse.

Yeah that was so weird

Dude was talking about costs for his business, and it's a specific type of business that should be booming with a good economy.

Did the responder even read the post? Did he just see "restaurant" and go full on NPC?

It’s pure coincidence that gas started increasing when we attacked Iran.

Just because you can't afford nice expensive shite that you want doesn't mean the economy is doing bad.. it just means you suck at handling your finances or you need to go find a better paying job

If an airline ticket costs $500 for first class then go buy the $200 coach ticket

“Get the $200 coach ticket”

I just paid $800 for a domestic flight 3 weeks in advance

And you can’t pay $9 for an iced coffee

ETA - and when was a first class ticket ever $500?

In a legitimately hot economy, why are people making sacrifices?

There’s no doubt their base will be voting, early and often, so let’s try not to piss off the voters that we need to win elections.


A good way to not piss off the voters we need is to constantly tell them this administration is terrible. That seems to be the winning strategy of many conservatives.

You very obviously don’t

But if you did, you wouldn’t need $9 to get one under any circumstance
