Don’t let the rightwing fool you: the economy is doing well under Biden

Is inflation better? Is the supply chain better? Is the workforce better? Is the immigration problem better with 2 million more illegals in this country last year taking jobs from Americans?

Every other metric like what, the unemployment rate dropping at a slow pace? Even the people who have money to spend can't do it because they can't find the items they wish to purchase.
I love how you just throw new shit out there and hope it sticks. Why are we suddenly talking about immigration? Who the hell knows.

The unemployment rate is not dropping at a slow pace. I mean maybe you want to call it slow but 5.8 million jobs in one year is not slow. A record economic growth not seen since 1984 is not slow. All of this is something Trump never achieved. You can pretend these facts don’t exist all you want - they will always remain.

Back to trying to give Dementia credit for something he never did. Name one policy of his that has proven to create jobs? He never had one. Again, the jobs have been there since the beginning of the year. No new jobs were created. Even if you can find an instance or two, Dementia had nothing to do with it. Businesses create jobs, not government. All government can do is make that process harder or easier on industry, and if anything, his policies have made it harder with higher transportation and fuel costs.

Oh I see Biden gets no credit at all whatsoever but Trump gets all the credit for any growth under him huh? Oh gee that’s convenient.
 
The economy isn’t perfect, so naturally republicans cherry pick the negative and pretend the positive isn’t occurring.

No one is going to pretend inflation isn’t important, but if you pretend it’s the only thing that matters, you sound dumb.

1)The Dow has increased 16.8% under Biden
The S&P has seen more records under Biden than Trump. 63.

2) The number of people working under Biden has grown by 5.8 million. Trump’s record on this same stretch of time was pitiful.

3) Wages have increased by 3.1% even though this increase has been slower than inflation. $31 per hour average

4) The unemployment rate has fallen to 4.6%

5) Checking accounts are 50% fatter than they were pre-pandemic. The bottom 50% of earners have 3 trillion more in wealth.



Gas is nearly double, there are empty shelves, we have supply chain problems and now we have to worry about war with Russia. Yeah, things are fucking great....

YEP just like when the Democrats claimed Trump's best economy of our lifetimes was due to Obama. Payback's a bitch ain't it?

You mean the wall didn’t work? Supply chain is the same. You want big gov to fix it? Markets will fix it, stop being a socialist.

And you want big gov to fix market problems? You must be a socialist.

No, I want government to STOP trying to fix market problems and STOP unconstitutional mandates, STOP spending tax dollars on fantasy 'climate' problems, STOP blocking drilling for fossil fuels, STOP all the stupid Covid mandates.. Government should get out of the way..
 
^^^ another Trump cultist who doesn't understand inflation is factored into real wage growth.
That's just pure bullshit right there....I notice that you didn't post any back up to your claim of this ridiculousness...

Here's a real world scenario...

Let's say our fictitious worker in the middle class got a 3% raise this year...That would equal a person making $1000.00 per week now bringing in 1,030.00 per week...Now, instead of paying $150.00 for groceries, and $30 in gas for the next week, he is paying $225.00 for groceries, and $55.00 for gas...

Now tell me that he is ahead of the game....He's not...

Then many of the things Repubs are complaining about aren’t joes problem.

No, they ALL are because since his election the American economy has gone in the dumper further in the dumper. And, don't kid yourself, the Covid 'scamdemic' was mounted by the Democrats to kill Trump's economy. It is becoming obvious today as we see nothing that Fauci and the Democrats have said or done has done anything to curb the Kong Flu.

No, the wall is government's job to protect our borders. Government needs to get out of market manipulation. Two different things.
 
When did I say I had a problem with border security? Never. I’m just not dumb enough to think a fucking wall is going to do jack shit lol
You called the wall 'socialist' and the wall actually helps agents and protects at least some of our border. It has nothing whatsoever to do with socialism.

Uh it does actually. It’s a program funded by tax revenue. That’s socialism.

Not it isn't. Socialism is central government control of all revenue to be distributed by government bureaucracy. Tax revenue spent for protecting our borders is not socialism. I think you are ignorant of what socialism really is. Do some reading.
