1ºJohn.. crime is down, presidents aren’t in charge of gas prices, whether they’re high or low, corporations have made record profits, thanks to consumers, who, by the way, consume quite a bit, airlines are packed with travelers, presidents don’t control prices of homes, cars, TVs, rent, etc.
Covid affected the world, inflation was rampant everywhere, supply chain issues affected almost all areas of commerce, demand was crazy high, supply was hindered, thus, prices went up.
America recovered far more quickly than most countries. A huge recession was expected as you surely recall, and yet it didn’t happen here. Things aren’t great for everyone, and that’s not a new phenomenon. We are fickle and pretty much never think things are good enough.
You’ve no doubt heard the question asking if we’re better off now than four years ago, right? That’s what Ronnie asked when running against Jimmy. Of course people said no, because we are big whiners, always wanting more of whatever new thing is dangled before us, right?
Four years ago people’s dead bodies were being kept in freezer semi trucks, because we had so many dead due to covid. We were hoarding TP, pasta, etc. We were not doing well except maybe if we scored a huge PPP loan or were renting out properties or selling a used car.
We are doing far better as a country now.. perfect? Hell no. Better? Hell yeah.
2ºChris N Lee… “Despite a low unemployment rate, Americans are still feeling the pinch of inflation, cost of living and general fiscal pain. It leads to the question: “Are you better off now than you were four years ago?” That’s what former President Ronald Reagan famously asked during a presidential debate in 1980.
Let’s broaden that question beyond one presidency. In light of the inflationary struggles the world has experienced in the last year, are we better off now than we were 40 years ago? In the 1980s?
“Yes, as a society, I believe we are,” said Shane Stewart, a certified financial planner with DMBA. “When you take all things into consideration and look at what an average family could afford in 1985, that family is better off today than they would have been back then.”
3ºThese morons don’t understand that by keeping interest rates high they are destroying the middle-class wealth. The majority of people in the middle-class rely on the equity in their home to use for upgrading their home, downgrading and retiring, taking cash out to invest. Right now people can’t do that they’re destroying the middle class because Joe Biden spent too much money. He printed too much money and the middle class has to suffer because of their reckless spending. Incidentally, raising interest rates is not the only way to combat inflationstop. Increase exports by lowering tariffs that’ll stimulate export sales and also lower the price of the dollar. These people are just playing dumb.
4ºStephen Anthony and yet republicans could’ve gotten border legislation with the foreign aid but Trump ordered it blocked…..loser.
Again I’ve reduced you to nothing with the personal attacks and you think you’re winning….pathetic.
It was still border legislation and even the union wanted it. Republicans wanted it. Trump didn’t.
I do plenty of research you do so little you can’t show anything that proves Trump was good. Tell me oh researcher of nothing, did Biden need to order democrats to block legislation just to hurt Trump when he was president just to campaign on something? No cause biden was actually wanted by the people and trump is a loser at everything
Only fool is you child. Keep crying as I put you in your place.
5ºMari Mari , many people are not better off. I was a stay at home mom and we sent our kids to private school in the 80’s. All of my kids have spouses that work and they send their kids to public schools. They struggle to get bills paid. Then you didn’t see homeless encampments. Today, the homeless are everywhere. Costs of living exceed wage increases. You can make a few items fit a talking point, but then you need to talk to real people. Financial planners deal with people who have money to invest. Maybe that’s why the organization is DUMBA?
6ºThat gave him complete control of the economy of Britain and virtually of all Europe. So
immediately after that Congress in Vienna had boomeranged, Rothschild forced Britain to set up a
new Bank of England which he absolutely controlled, exactly as later, through Jacob Schiff, he
engineered our own Federal Reserve Act which gave the House of Rothschild a secret control of the
economy in the United States. But now for a moment, let's dwell on the activities of the Illuminati in
the United States.
Now the vast majority of the American people think that the Federal Reserve System is the United
States Government owned agency. That is positively false. All of the stock of the federal reserve
banks is owned by the member banks and the heads of the member banks are all members of the
hierarchy of the great Illuminati conspiracy known today as the CFR.

7ºBud.. “Let’s broaden that question beyond one presidency. In light of the inflationary struggles the world has experienced in the last year, are we better off now than we were 40 years ago? In the 1980s?
“Yes, as a society, I believe we are,” said Shane Stewart, a certified financial planner with DMBA. “When you take all things into consideration and look at what an average family could afford in 1985, that family is better off today than they would have been back then.”
“One of the most common complaints people voice today is about inflation. They can’t afford eggs, gas or a car. Is this a unique challenge for us in 2023?
“No,” said Stewart. “Every generation faces the fear of inflation. . . This isn’t much different than we’ve seen in other years.”
There is a basic misconception about inflation.
“A healthy economy is inflated, meaning it grows,” said Stewart. “It’s just like the tire on your car. It needs to be properly inflated.”
If the economy is underinflated, like your tire, it’s hard on the system. If it’s properly inflated, it runs beautifully. “The problem is hyperinflation or overinflation,” Stewart said. “If it grows too quickly, it’s hard to stop, and then everything becomes very expensive.”
