  1. These people are fools. No one believes their lies. Just go to the grocery store and everything is up like 30-75% in the last 3 years. I could name one product after another – but Democrats never accept evidence. It is alien to them. So why bother?

  2. My choice and @ this stage the only choice is to vote Dem from top to bottom on the ticket! We DO NOT WON"T a CLOWN, a CRIMINAL, a Loser & Immature Brat to be POTUS!

    @ this stage we DO NOT even want the MAGA worshipers who follow their LIAR in chief, who also LIE about everything, and have NO idea / direction in looking ahead!

    Wow what a time to be in the USA, so many are willfully deaf dumb and blind and need to hear truth and be educated! Fight for and keep OUR Democratic Law & Order,

    OUR Sanity & Safety, OUR Freedom & Rights, OUR Peace & Security. Please make the effort to vote all of these fools OUT! It's important to YOU & the Dem World, to World Peace!

  3. Open up the 'real median household income' chart, the 'CPI' chart and the 'real median personal income' chart. Study them and stop being brainwashed. This is the worst the economy has ever been, and of course it is, you can't print $20 trillion (80% of all circulating currency) and not have a negative effect.

  11. Republicans scream that the economy is awful. Let's see. We have the lowest unemployment rate since 1968. The stock market keeps hitting record highs, which means that people's retirement accounts are growing much faster than inflation. Inflation is falling. Companies are hiring. Salaries are increasing. Don't Republicans like those things? Do they fail to see those things? Do they choose to ignore reality while attempting to make political points?

  17. They are misrepresenting that graph. There is no reason to believe an increase in the amount of goods people would be buying. It looks more like people are buying the same things and it is the cost of those same things that are sky rocketing. Since Biden took over the cost for the same goods costs about 40% more. And then you ask yourself if that is what you see in reality.

  19. Americans, keep signing up for credit cards abd use them only for buying food! Then do not pay off the credit cards because food is your basic human right to survive. Healthy food is needed to function. Basic human right.

  20. FACT: inflation still stuck between increase of of 55% and 200% for 99% of food items since 2019. I am literally preparing to farm 1 acre lot to grow enough food because I cannot depend on the greedy grocery chains.
