Tell me once again about this "great economy"

Immigrants are good for America, they always have been.

Depends what color they are

I don't give a shit about global energy prices. Why did gasoline needlessly go up to $5 - $8 per gallon under Joe Biden and why hasn't gone back down to 2019 prices? Why has my electric bill gone from $160 in 2019 to the $220 a month I'm paying now, in spite of the fact that I'm not using any more electricity than I was five years ago?

You idiots don't get it, do you.

BECAUSE THE PRICE OF OIL GLOBALLY HAS GONE UP.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

How much oil does Ukraine export?

A lot!

Sunflower oil.

No fossil fuel oil.

You are aware that there is a second country involved in the war in Ukraine?

right?

right?

Oh?
Russia is supplying more oil than ever.

Try again.

Never mind.
You mixed in $.
Barrels is the key.
No change.

Sure, will be happy to do so, even though you did not for your claim.

Russia oil production remains unchanged.

President Trump single-handedly drove the global price of oil down, while demolishing the oil-based economies of Russia and Iran.

Chew on that one.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

President Trump single-handedly drove the global price of oil down,

He sure did, all it took was COVID.

Now take that back to 2019 and see if the levels are the same

 

[JGalt]

He sure did, all it took was COVID.

Could have happened under any administration.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Could have happened under any administration.

But you just gave Trump credit for it. That is the only time he brought down the price of oil.

It was 48.31/bbl when he took office.

It was 63.12/bbl in Jan 2020 before COVID.

 

[Weatherman2020]

Now take that back to 2019 and see if the levels are the same

Russia exported over 7.9 million barrels of oil per day in 2022, up from approximately 7.8 million barrels daily recorded in the previous year.

Uh. That really showed Putin! Good thing Joe put together NATO!

Brandon sure showed Putin!

Democrats are Putin’s BFF

It has been for me and mine.

Wonderful for you.

You've got yours.

Now what ?

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Wonderful for you.

You've got yours.

Now what ?

Now I am going to keep it.

I would suggest you do the same and quit relying on the resident of the White House to save you

 

[HikerGuy83]

Now I am going to keep it.

I would suggest you do the same and quit relying on the resident of the White House to save you

I don't rely on him for anything except what the Constitution calls for.

I have kept and increased mine, but I am also keenly aware of the problems we have with things like income inequality and people using credit cards to survive.

 

[Weatherman2020]

Biden’s say that too.
So does Putin.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

I have kept and increased mine, but I am also keenly aware of the problems we have with things like income inequality and people using credit cards to survive.

Those things have been a problem for decades (even longer for the inequality part) .

Inequality is a function of our economic system.

The only reason the system survives it that one can go from struggling to pay bills to very well off in a short amount of time if they work hard at it and have a bit of luck along the way.

The problem is that moving out of a current status is getting harder to do
