Who Made Life In The U.S. Unaffordable?

[AntonToo]

It started started with the creation of the Federal Reserve Bank back in the early 1900s. It was exacerbated when we left the Gold Standard and adopted the debt system. The creation of the Fiat Dollar (money created out of thin air) gave way to the devaluation of the dollar and it's buying power. Every Congress and President since Nixon has taken turns abusing the Dollar and has aided in its devaluation. Everyone is fond of signing $Billion & $Trillion dollar spending bills when those $Billions & $Trillions don't even exist.

The current, dismal state of the economy is the result of foolish and irresponsible members of the Swamp Party - both Demicans and Republicrats. No one person is responsible but the collective members of the Elite Oligarchy are responsible.

Lets go back to early 1900's economy...SAID NO ONE EVER.

There were two times when inflation exploded in America.
Jimmy Carter and Joe Biden were the presidents and democrats running the country.
See a pattern

WE are on our 47th president Yes?
But just these 2 caused all the problems!
We have never? had any major problems with REPUBLICANS?
How ABOUT both party's have stepped over the line,
That is actually A FACT.

Those who overspend , can’t budget and feel others need to fix that

These 2 democrats caused the worst inflation in my lifetime and its not even close. Biden was even worse with 9.1%. The prime rate under Cater was 18%. There is no comparison to these two idiots.

 

[Hafar1014]

You left out Bush Sr., A Little of "Slick Willy", followed by Bush Jr., a Lot of The "Kenyan Imposter", & a lot of the "Twitter-in-Chief".

The two worst presidents that wrecked our economy were Carter and Biden

It was such a disaster that...Reagan kept the same monetary policy course under same Fed Chaiman named Paul Walker.

Reagan made huge changes in the economy there was revenue sharing, TEFRA tax cuts and many regulation cuts. It took 4 years get bring it back. Trump is taking the same approach. He will do it in 2 years.
Both reduced the power of government and the economy took off.

First off, it was Biden and the Democrats who had a four year inflation rate total of about 20%. So, when Trump has like 2.8% inflation, it gets added onto the inflation we already had under Democrats. So, prices under Trump are 22.8% higher than prices were four years ago. Then, you have to also consider that the blue states are the ones with higher prices and Trump can't do that much for blue state inflation. Democrats own that.


The Democrats have decided that “affordability” is the issue that will win the next election cycle. Are they daft? The most unaffordable states and cities in the country are Democrat strongholds.

Who Made Life In The U.S. Unaffordable?

The Democrats, of course.

Trump didn't promise to "be unable to make unaffordable things affordable". He said said he would lower inflation.

How is massively increasing government size and spending in our own self interest?

It's only in the interest of the downwardly mobile credentialed children of successful people that make up most of the modern left.

Biden had to deal with Trump's pandemic. trump is giving us expensive stuff without a pandemic.

 

[BackAgain]

Gaslighting the middle class that affordability is a made up issue will not work.

Claims ng a new libturd meme of “affordability” which is all but completely your dishonest propaganda won’t work.

They see where their hard earned money goes and it does not go as far as it used to.

Nonsense. They are being told what to believe but that doesn’t make it true. Gas prices have risen. Some food stuff prices have risen. But overall, we’re all doing fine.

Housing, Healthcare, Energy, Transportation, Education, Entertainment are all out of reach and trade offs must be made

Bullshit.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Because that is what people want you to believe.

Most of those bankruptcies are filed for amounts that are less than the cost of a good used car.

Alright TruthSeeker112125....tell me where I am wrong.

I am always open to correction from good sources.

Like a true Trumptard you think people are too stupid to know their own finances

People know how much money is in their wallet and how much is left at the end of the month

Nonsense. I see the fact that most intelligent people would never buy this new Leftard bullshit.

People know their expenses and what they can no longer afford.
Even Republicans know how they are doing economically. They do not need Trump to tell them.

Republicans better fix it or pay the price at the polls

True, but people think its Trump's fault when Biden's 20% total inflation is why prices are still so high.
That's politics. The party in power takes the blame. So Republicans need to figure "affordability" out or get smoked in November.

Some do. Many don’t.

I know; that’s what you’re hoping for by blaming temporary price increases on Republicans.

You’re not even remotely reliable.

Democrats tried to do the same thing in 2024.
Point to economic metrics that said things are not that bad.

People didn’t buy it from the Dems, they won’t buy it when Trump says it is made up.
Trump has never been in a grocery store in his life

Yep. Trump's guys messed up putting tariffs on grocery products like...(since removed)

Trump is looking at the big picture, doing all he can do, the GDP is up, $trillions committed to new facilities, deporting millions of illegals, lowering the price of gas, but groceries are still too expensive, so voters are nor happy...luckily its not November yet.

Gaslighting is not going to work

Telling people high prices are just made up will not fool them.
They know when they have to buy hamburger instead of steak

Not a single thing you've just said has anything to do with monetary policy your prior post was about.

I guess you just badly want to say something back without having anything to say.

You mean China's pandemic.
