Those evil frickers always ignore the increase in food prices when talking about inflation. Also ignore renting/buying houseing prices that skyrocketed.


I know several people who work 80hours a week total, between two full time jobs, and are still struggling to find housing.

Indeed.

Trumps economic plan was not very different. He built his economy on debt, just like Biden.

Well not Trump so much as the Covid madness. But sure, he’s not blameless. But Biden is the one who poured gas all over the fire in 2021.

No, Donny spent at record levels prior to Covid despite promising to eliminate the debt.

Hes the same Keynesian that Obama and Biden are.

One cannot borrow one’s way into prosperity. As long as you are in debt, your money is not your own. You are beholden into financial slavery to another.

This is a basic concept.

Sustainable opportunity, job creation.

Government jobs are NOT sustainable.

Well, I carried my wife and kids out to eat last night... Total bill including tip was $81.17 at a place that three years ago the bill was $52.29 including tip... Exact same thing ordered and we visit that restaurant on the same day every year...

Trump was spending even before Covid was a thing. He was President in 2020. He deserves all of the blame. He was in change and fumbled the ball and it cost him the election in 2020. Paying people to sit at home and not work and allowing Fauci and Birx to take over policy for the country was fricking stupid to do but Trump did it anyway.

Trump thought it was a good idea to pay people to sit at home and not work. That in turn killed supply chain, jobs, etc. Trump thought it would buy him votes in 2020 with all the stimulus and PPP money he was sending out. It didn't work.

i was down voted to no end for asking a similar question on the money board. stock market is rallying, but why? Houses and cars not selling because of high prices and interest rates. Good employees are hard to find. But poopie pants states we have a great economy.
