B-Man Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Joe Biden's Economy Is a Shambles, and America's Moms Are Struggling to Make Ends Meet By Ward Clark Joe Biden's economy is hammering the middle class, and now American middle-class moms - a constituency that has traditionally leaned a little to the left, and one that Democrats tend to take for granted - are blaming Joe Biden's policies for their difficulties in making ends meet. The kitchen table economics of American households have become a battleground for frustrated moms who find themselves struggling with the realities of the Biden administration's policies. "It is bad. The mom-and-pop stores are closing down at an alarming rate. [It takes] two to three jobs per person just to make ends meet," Kristina Tullos, a concerned mom from Hawaii, said Tuesday on "Fox & Friends First." Tullos was one of three moms who spoke with co-host Carley Shimkus about their financial frustrations under the current administration. Joe Biden's economic policies have been disastrous, and things are not turning around, no matter how much Joe's handlers try to deny it. More and more Americans are looking back at the previous administration with nostalgia. https://redstate.com/wardclark/2024/05/28/joe-bidens-economy-is-a-shambles-and-americas-moms-are-struggling-to-make-ends-meet-n2174768 https://www.foxbusiness.com/media/frustrated-parents-tipping-point-bidens-economy-struggle-debilitating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 I offer this as a continuing public service for us cheapskates out there. This one is limited to Colorado, but I promise you every MLB city has some kind of similar fast food deal out there: Since every team probably has at least one double in 95% of games, this is basically a gimmie. But you need to buy a buck Coke to get it! So that's 437 calories (not including the Coke) for a buck. Remember that the next time you're tempted to post those bloated fast food receipts. An educated consumer is inflation's worst enemy. You're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 You guys know it's a pet peeve of mine, people inflating in their minds what things actually cost. I'm watching the PBS coverage of the RNC. They just interviewed a couple, delegates from Idaho. The couple complained about the price of eggs and bread, something about 8 bucks each. They said they shop at Walmart. Now Boise Idaho can't be that different from Colorado. Here's my Walmart eggs price TODAY: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Value-Cage-Free-Large-White-Eggs-12-Count/421705528?athbdg=L1600 $3.38/dozen. No, not the fancy each hen has it's own bidet type, but ... $3.38/dozen. Oh, that eight buck bread? Eat the damn Walmart brand: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Value-White-Round-Top-Bread-Loaf-20-oz/10315355?athbdg=L1200&from=/search $1.48 for a 20 oz. sliced loaf. Or really go wild and get the OroWheat 24 oz. with all those seeds and other crap: $4.28. No one in the media calls people on this bs. Just lil' ol' me.

Your reports have been nonexistent for quite some time. I'm an elitist. I don't buy Walmart bread or eggs. That's why I had to look up the price. But I know exactly what I paid for gas on Saturday. Is that close enough? $2.99/gallon. Costco. Before the 4 cent a gallon credit card discount. If you're not using a cash back or rewards card you are either a fool or have bad credit. Oh, the horror!

B-Man Posted yesterday at 04:06 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:06 PM The economy is easily one of the top issues on the minds of most voters these days. It’s an issue that both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have to address. For Trump, it’s relatively easy. All he has to do is point to what prices and jobs looked like during his presidency and promise to do it again. Harris, however, has a rougher path. After all, she’s part of the administration that not just was in office when the economy went into the toilet, but she was part of the administration that did literally everything wrong to bring it back under control. But she’s trying to present things as if she is the answer. That hasn’t worked out well for her lately. First, one of her spokespeople got absolutely hammered on it during a recent interview: So it made sense that when a Harris surrogate, Democratic strategist Kelly Hyman, appeared on Fox on Monday, that host Sandra Smith would ask her what Harris' "plan" was to lower prices. See, Harris needs people to believe that our grocery bills are the result of price gouging because it lets her demonize big business for the problems that she and the rest of the Biden administration either caused or exacerbated while in office. It’s not her fault, you understand, but the evil corporations and she’s going to make it so they can’t do this again. Which, of course, she couldn’t even if she wanted to. You see, Harris claims her plan will build a strong economy. People who actually understand economics, however, say it won’t. https://tomknighton.substack.com/p/harris-having-a-bad-time-on-economy .

Prices generally fall when productivity increases. The question is how do you enhance productivity and do any of her proposals support increased productivity? Which results in business and workers earning more. Aren't most of her team's proposals geared towards income redistribution schemes and defining new ways to find more funds for increased government spending? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All_Pro_Bills Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago (edited) 16 minutes ago, SectionC3 said: If you can’t afford a McDouble, then maybe you shouldn’t eat a McDouble. That attitude might fly here when you're sparing with ideological adversaries that you have little to no sympathy for in any way. But its not going to win you any votes in a liberal State or election district. There you need to tell people that McDonalds is price gouging, paying their workers poverty level wages, and the citizens not able to afford a McDouble are members of invisible, under-served, and oppressed groups that white supremacists exhibiting white privilege traits are plotting to keep them from affording and enjoying a McDouble burger. And you will fight those evil forces and insure justice and truth prevail, tax those evil doers and redistribute those funds to the masses resulting in McDoubles for all! That in a couple sentences summarizes the DNC's campaign strategy every election. Edited 23 hours ago by All_Pro_Bills 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
