Usually the guy yelling the loudest and pointing his finger "over there" is the one guilty of what he is accusing the other guy of.

And no increase in rates so inflation will continue to go up.

The stock market is an illusion of reality thanks to the Federal Reserve.
As long as Wall Street gets an ever-rising stock market, who cares about the rest of the economy?

Wishing illness on anyone makes you a bad human, but I agree on Darwin-lets go natural immunity, its worked for hundreds of years.

You are doing it wrong, try the CRB index if you know what that is(and if you dont, look it up. ) or anything tied to inflation, really.

They do? I thought all the Billionaires were Republicans? I thought Black people and disadvantaged were disproportionately affected by Covid? I wouldn't want any of those people to die or get sick. What kind weird sicko would wish Covid on anyone

That is sad indeed.

This is one of Trump's worst legacies. I'm not saying all inflation is his fault, but he DEFINITELY pressured the fed into further QE, when anyone who understood the most basic economics knew it would result in inflation. This is no Monday Quarterbacking, it was called out (by me, among others) as he was pressuring the fed to do this.


To the OP: If the economy is thriving under Biden, you kinda have to wonder how much of his disapproval is based on partisan politics and biased media. It seems the media is up his arse every day saying what a bad job he's doing, yet here we are growing and growing. They did the same thing to Trump. It's funny how the 'biased media' works. All they really want is ratings, and they'll sell their mother's soul to get them.

Kind of similar to why I support abortion- fewer democrats!

Abortion kills more people every year than Covid and auto accidents combined, so it is doing its job for humanity.

You both seem like pretty awful people. As much as I think your attitude is greatly responsible for what's wrong with the world, I don't wish death on either of you.
