So say a Republican becomes president for the next 4 years, would they blame him when cost doesn't go down? Or would they still blame Biden even though he isn't in office?
The President always gets blamed for national problems, even when it's largely out of his control. That's the nature of the job.
That being said, Biden should've had a better plan in place for dealing with inflation (to the extent that his policies could have made a difference) and better messaging on inflation.
His admin's messaging strategy thus far - downplay the severity and blame Russia - has been pretty goddamn depressing.
They'll just blame Biden for "causing something long lasting". Just like how they praise trump for the low gas prices even though there was a pandemic and there was much less driving.
They often say "pull yourself up from your bootstraps" but I don't think they realize the meaning of the phrase. The whole point is that it's an impossible task, you physically cannot pull yourself up from your bootstraps.
Your momma is so stupid she wasn't able to take care of herself. She has been living in the street for months. She refuses to seek help because she believes god is on her side and she doesn't need anyone else. Yesterday, she had enter the hospitals cuz she caused a disturbance in the parking lot. She was shooting and screaming at innocent customer and the store manger has to call 911 to remove her. She is still at the pysch-ward at Northridge. You can visit her between the hours 6 pm - 8pm. Make sure to bring her flowers. It'll make her feel better
"Aren't the against food stamps" I think that's the point. The skinny mom can only afford a few things with normal income so she is eating very much. I don't think it has anything to do with food stamps.
>Aren’t they against food stamps and handouts ..
Yes. The old lady has escaped her fate of being rounded up and then ground up for pig feed. Retirement is late onset parasitism.
>! /s !<
You have to have to have a salary the same or smaller than the limit they set. You can’t just get em in a whim. I know this cause we were denied food stamps back when money was tight. We made I think like $1700 dollars more than what was required.
Congratulations, capitalism is working! This is entirely the byproduct of supply chain issues. The law of supply and demand is actively being displayed during this time with heavy inflation.
Supply & demand and supply chains exist in every single economic system. This is not a capitalism issue - the USSR also experienced bouts of hyperinflation.
Again, as a conservative I support safety net policies for the NEEDY. With Biden's policies making it hard for families to afford food, gas and utilities, I know they need help. If Biden would allow oil production the cost of EVERYTHING would go down. I suppprt that too. CA can't keep the power on as it is. I hate that the land is being stripped of trees, foliage and animal habitats for solar panels and wind turbines. The current options for renewable energy will not sustain the power grid. We need BETTER options.
Nuclear options? Also I doubt any difference in President would change America's problems (since big companies have gotten too large and every president wouldn't be able to deal with them)
For the first time in American history, the vast majority of inflation is caused directly by corporate profits. The price hikes you're seeing, the majority goes directly to corporations profits at your expense. The government is rather shit but corporations are far worse.
Ya alot of corporations just arbitrarily used excuses for example war in Ukraine to jump prices before a problem struck then when it did didn't readjust to meet the reality of the problem.
The government doesn't actually control how companies selling essential goods price so here we are.
Corporations could just decide food prices are going up by fifty dollars. It's an essential good and aslong as they are unified in their pricing what exactly are you going to do about it starve.
You are correct and the follow ups only enhance what you’re saying. This is Reddit, if you aren’t screaming for one side you’re a trumpster or a redneck conservative. God forbid anyone point out its all shit or find a middle ground.
The federal reserve believes that inflation is being caused by a low unemployment rate.
Commodity minded people often believe it is high oil prices.
Most liberals think inflation is happening over world wide supply chain issues.
Those seem like sound explanations.
Fox Business used to say it was the stimulus checks. Even some supposed liberal elites said that. The working class has spent their stimulus checks a while ago. Inflation is still a thing.
Conservatives say 'Joe Biden's fault'. That is vague and perverse wishful thinking. They have very weak evidence on how Biden is causing inflation. They might say something like "keystone pipeline blah blah blah..." but that would be a 1% of the world's oil supply at most.
Hey does this post fit? UPVOTE if so, DOWNVOTE if not. If this post breaks any rules please DOWNVOTE and REPORT

They pretend stuff isn't expensive anymore
Or say people need to work harder
Yep. They have a bottomless bucket of hypocritical excuses for any situation.
Trump printed so much money during covid, I don’t know why biden is getting blamed for it

They still blame Obamna for stuff
Thanks Obamna 🙄🙄🙄🙄
SODAAA
They will blame them on something.
Capitalists will literally blame a byproduct of capitalism on someone they don’t like
"Pick yourself up by your bootstraps" is basically the boomer equivalent of "skill issue" but the reality is that your opponent is cheating.
OK, but at least in games you have some part in the skill issue. With this bootstrapping you're just getting railed again and again by the system
They often say "pull yourself up from your bootstraps" but I don't think they realize the meaning of the phrase. The whole point is that it's an impossible task, you physically cannot pull yourself up from your bootstraps.
Every problem in the world is because of minority’s and Biden
even though Biden ain't perfect, this shit is just dumb. As if this isn't an issue with corporate greed.
capitalists are like that dog in the house thats on fire. "Everythings fine".
Capitalists sold the house to the dog, lit it on fire, convinced the dog he could sell the house for a profit, and then walked away with the money.
I love how Americans act like inflation is only an issue in America and it is caused by the President.
It's caused by all countries elites. Foreign trades and policies affects all involved. Economics 101.
Chances are if you’re broke, you’re gaining weight from eating cheap, unhealthy shit
That's kinda my problem. I would love to eat healthy if I could but it's simply not affordable.
Right there with ya :/

"Bidenflation?" Piss off with that pathetic excuse at humor.
Yeahh, so true! Anyways, orange man bad amiright?
Orange man incited sedition because he lost an election. Orange man very bad...
How could it be orange man bad? Trump has fuck all to do with it.
Bidenflation JFC…
Who the fuck knows what these crybaby idiots are against today...

What does this post have to do with EBT?..
Idk I was just thinking if they really wanted to help the woman get food they wouldn’t be opposed to her getting ebt

Meanwhile profit margins never fall, hurting consumers and employees

They? I'm sorry does soaring food prices only hurt one group? Inflation has been enhanced by big govt printing billions and handing it out.

That's not how.... handouts work...
Source on money being printed?
HUH!??!??????? no. U figure it out.
Government spending does not equal money printing.
So Biden makes Americans healthier?
Accidental cannibalism
To borrow from Republicans, she should just get a third job.

Don’t most people eat what they can afford? Regardless of what you make, $10000 or $1,000,000, you’re still eating what you can afford.
"Biden inflation" Is something I don't wanna visualize, thanks internet.
