Do you think the energy market is only local? Do you think the food supply is only local? Do you think that energy costs don't affect food costs? Do you think that fertilizer shortages dont affect food supply/costs? Do you think the price of gas isn't affected by our Government's energy & foreign policies? The policies that have jacked oil and food prices have kicked inflation into the next level. Feel free to fool yourself that it is all about Corona but I've seen it at the pump and at the store and saw it and felt it when it really kicked in. As it is said "I did that" and how. So, country by country..their policies are the same as ours?? Don't quite know what you are saying here...but the inflation seems to be a global phenomenon. So Biden caused global inflation? Not buying your premice. You almost have it. Energy is a global commodity and the Biden Admin stepped in it with energy policy on two fronts (Domestic and Foreign). Food is also a global commodity to a lesser extent but the Fertilizer shortage and the global price of energy and their combined effect on costs, outputs, availability and prices on food shows that it is in many ways. Joe said he should be President and he owns his policies, decisions and their effects. But, but Putin ate my homework.... |

OK..Mr. Mensa...why is the UK (and some other developed countries), experiencing record inflation..? Do you think the energy market is only local? Do you think the food supply is only local? Do you think that energy costs don't affect food costs? Do you think that fertilizer shortages dont affect food supply/costs? Do you think the price of gas isn't affected by our Government's energy & foreign policies? The policies that have jacked oil and food prices have kicked inflation into the next level. Feel free to fool yourself that it is all about Corona but I've seen it at the pump and at the store and saw it and felt it when it really kicked in. As it is said "I did that" and how. First, the economy is cyclical. We were decades overdue for a spike in inflation. Experts were predicting a jump in inflation starting with W's administration in 2001. Then it was Obama would have to deal with inflation. Then many predicted inflation would finally creep in during Trump's term. It was shocking that it took so long to see that spike hit. But it took Putin invading Ukraine and getting Russian oil blocked to make it really happen. Shortages due to various manufacturing facilities around the world closing down for 6 or 8 weeks at a stretch boosted inflation, but it was Putin's invasion of Ukraine that sent the key price skyrocketing. Raise the price of oil significantly, and everything else goes up (gotta use oil/fuel to get products to market). It was a GLOBAL phenomenon. Some other countries had it even worse than us! Biden had little to do with inflation. And, here's the secret - Presidents have little effect on the economy. Who has the biggest impact? THE FED. Yep, the Federal Reserve drives the economy. And the Chairman of the FED is not elected... |

Your maga brain does not allow critical thought from a distance. I was just in Europe for 5 weeks. I actually read and talk to people. PS... no one was writing, or talking about, Biden. Did you send your $500 to the orange man yet?..I understand he's begging the faithful. |

And the Chairman of the FED is not elected... Why do we have less than US min wage workers slaving away for American companies not in America? That's why we have shortages. Capitalism is why. Supply is always kept intentionally low to create fake demand which increases prices. This is without other factors that mess with trade. Add those and now we have our situation when the stupid are blaming the other major party for the shortages when it is f'n capitalism causing them. Abolish capitalism. |

Saw where Joe was trying to portray himself as the "law and order" guy the other day with his comments on fentanyl saying "we’re going to impose tougher penalties for deadly fentanyl trafficking that’s poisoning communities across this country." And he does this while enabling the Mexican Drug Cartels (and his buddies in the CCP) with windfalls of hundreds of millions in cash with their mass human trafficking schemes and their currently on-going fentanyl and drug smuggling trade (as our Border Patrol is busy playing nurse and travel agent for "asylum seekers"  ). |

www.texastribune.org/2022/09/03/migrants-drown-crossing-rio-grande/Didn't they realize that our border was secure before they ventured on their dangerous journey? And as any slimey ambulance chasing attorney will tell you, the person or persons who created an Attractive Nuisance that ultimately causes deaths or injury is/are culpable. The Democrats that hatched and executed this ongoing scheme of handing out illegal pseudo-amnesty to economic refugees in exchange for future votes are guilty as if they killed those migrants themselves.

As least those clueless clowns recognize they have created a "humanitarian crisis" with the policies and politicians they support...

Speaking of clueless clowns (well, not exclusively) - This is nothing more than a publicity stunt by Ron DeSantis, who used COVID relief funds to traffic migrants illegally. Burying the lede here with your criticism, as per usual. |

Burying the lede here with your criticism, as per usual. You can't make this stuff up. You sure can, as your post is a disingenuous fantasy. These are people who were likely promised a chance at asylum for (again) a choreographed stunt by Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis. Leaving aside the fact that using misappropriated funds and human trafficking are obvious felonies, your predictable, nauseating and fraudulent use of the same misguided language is a detriment to common sense. |

These are people who are lied to and neglected by the U.S. Government and these lies and neglect are supported by clueless leftist clowns in hopes of future political power. These leftists here are being owned by their own hypocrisy and are too stupid to even see it. |

That's how I know you're not that bright, so you might be in the "too stupid to realize it" crowd yourself. Those who can see direct statements refuting their nonsense and yet still want to cling to their nonsense....stupid, indeed. The only person striving for "future power" is DeSantis, who broke the law. You going to acknowledge that or does the bootlicking get in the way? |

Well, since it is 5th grade logic, at best, that says leaving migrants and their children to the fortunes of the Mexican Drug Cartel gangsters and exposing them to crossing a flowing river in the heat of summer is somehow preferable and less humane than a chartered flight to one of the best addresses in the world, we will leave it at what it is. A debate tactic that the proponents of our ongoing Southern Border fiasco might be able to comprehend. |

You do a fantastic job at finding abstract arguments without answering a single question repeatedly. |

A debate tactic that the proponents of our ongoing Southern Border fiasco might be able to comprehend. Are you dizzy from the amount of excessive spin? You do a fantastic job at finding abstract arguments without answering a single question repeatedly. Since you are all about answering questions, do the Democrats own all the drownings of the migrants crossing the Rio Grande and the deaths of the migrants due to exposure as they cross the desert and they do it all with the false hope of amnesty? Do the Democrats own the Rape Trees and on-going human trafficking enabled by their false promise of amnesty in the U.S.? Do the Democrats own the hundreds of thousands of Gotaways that have eluded our over burdened Border Patrol and the criminal and national security danger that situation poses? Do the Democrats own their share of the nearly 150 deaths of our fellow citizens daily as they endure the unprecedent flow of the Fentanyl poison given courtesy to our citizens by the filthy rich Mexican Drug Cartels flush with money made from human trafficking fees? You answer those honestly and we can deal with your TDS related questions soon enough. |
