Just two days ago, there was a DU thread about the DOW hitting 40,000, and how this was a manifest sign of Bidenomics working well. Now, they say the economy isn't working well for everyone, and Biden will need to focus in his second term.

(Also, they're assuming he will even get a second term).

Just blame it all on corporate greed, which low IQ voters tend to fall for. The government overregulation of business and industry is one of the major culprits in rising prices.

The economy isn't working for many people. It's paycheck to paycheck for many families, especially young families.
I think Biden is going to have to focus more on what he's going to do in his second term.

Ruh-roh Raggy! Someone's mental gears are grinding trying to acknowledge economic reality without placing responsibility where it has been earned.

Sent to people to take the edge off gas and groceries like $500 or something. I'm sure Republicans would block that. But I was hoping

Typical Prog non-thinking ... throw government money at a problem that was caused by government policies and throwing government money at problems.

 :hi5: BamaMoose!

US Presidents have had their staff issue recognitions of youth achievements for I don't know how many decades. My son was happy his Eagle rank award certificate was "signed" by GWB and not BHO. That tradition may be older than I am.

Inflation continues to be higher because people continue to spend money. If people didn't have money to spend, the economy would cool and Inflation would drop even more than what we've seen.

What a genius, stop spending money quit wasting it on fuel and food and medicine and all the other bills that you have. Go to the grocery store and tell him you want your order for free. See how that works out.

They just can’t hold up to the fact that this dip shit in office ruined the economy, as well as ruining the rest of the country on regulated immigration :thatsright: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:

9. I'm afraid that Biden is giving the impression that everything is fine and it's just not

Looks like someone is awake over there!

I find it funny that none of the "educators" on DU have chimed in to explain to the OP what award her niece received.  She probably got a President's Education Award.  The award program was established in 1983, so the "administration [that] decided it was good to reach out to schools to celebrate and uplift these children" was none other than Ronald Reagan's.  Hilarious that Ronny is still owning the Libs from the grave.

As far as her speculation that somehow her niece was chosen by some selection committee somewhere in the White House, that is also terribly incorrect.  The award recipients are chosen by the individual school administrators and the letters and certificates are downloaded from the Department of Education website.  So, with the power vested in me by the President of the United States of America, I award everyone on this thread a President’s Award for Academic Excellence.  You can download your certificates and letters from Biden and Secretary Cardona here: https://www2.ed.gov/programs/presedaward/awards.html.  Congratulations to you all.

I do applaud this little girl's achievement and I sincerely hope that her crazy aunt's political views don't rub off on her.

That or the pull-up award, assuming they're still handing them out.

:hi5: and QFT, though OhBummer! and Slick Willy probably were worse than JEC.

As a "finger in the wind" president, Slick Willie wasn't all THAT bad. He didn't have an agenda to impose socialism and destroy America like Obummer had.

Why hasn't he focused on it this term, Raven?

It costs $12K more per year to survive under Bidenomics. $500 wouldn't make a dent in that.

I know that doesn’t make sense. I wish it didn’t, but it does increase prices on everything when an influx of money goes into the economy.

This DUmmie can't figure out how more money chasing the same goods causes inflation. :thatsright:
