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.

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

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

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:

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!

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

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.

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).

These are the idiots who get their lessons in economics from this idiot:

Nobel economist Paul Krugman gets trolled for saying inflation is over if you just exclude most of what people buy

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

To hear Joe tell it, corporations just became greedy once he took office. :hammer:

Corporations have always been "greedy." Their primary reason for existence is to maximize shareholder wealth.

Krugman is such a dolt although I do "hate read" his columns just for the laughter, similar to reading the DUmp.

One of the little secretive weapons that the government uses to manipulate statistics are the basket of goods included in measuring inflation. Rents and insurance costs are excluded, both of which have been skyrocketing under "Bidenomics". Hell, my own home and car insurance rates have dramatically increased, and I'm at the age where I'm not high risk. It is happening to everyone, due to the regulatory burden imposed by Big Gooberment.
