We can utilize the standardized liberal response from 2017-2018...."What specific item of legislation did the President have passed to create this economy"... and the BIL does not count, because that money has not even hit the streets yet?

With skyrocketing gas prices, inflation, astronomical real estate and rising rent prices, I’d say people were probably just as well off without a job.
The economy is horrendous right now.
Consumer confidence is down.
Just a matter of time till it completely crashes. Enjoy your job while you still have it.

You can slip on a crack and get a job in 2022. I just helped a former inmate get a job 3 weeks ago.
Most of those jobs are low paying like fast food joints. Those jobs need to fold up and die. There are far too many of them. Americans need jobs that pay a liveable wage.

So you are saying Biden did not do anything to help with the jobless claims falling to the lowest level since 1969, but he’s the man at the top so he takes full responsibility for it? Gotcha

This being figured off new people filing for unemployment is highly flawed. People whose unemployment has run out are not counted. People who were not eligible for unemployment are not counted. People who have quit looking for work are not counted. People who can only find part time jobs are not counted. People who are underemployed, those who are not making a living wage, are not counted.
Many of those in the construction trades, who are self employed, which is most of them, are not counted. And because of the high price of materials, there are many unemployed in construction.

Tell the truth and put it in context. What will the bots do now?

Liberal BS- The economy is far from "booming"- quite the opposite

1. Highest inflation since 1979

2. Gas prices continue to rise, setting record levels with higher prices coming this summer

3. With higher gas prices comes higher costs for EVERYTHING, driving more inflation and depressing the economy by diverting purchases from consumer goods to gasoline.

4. Most economists feel as though high inflation, coupled with rising gas prices and product shortages will create a protracted period of stagflation as seen in the 1970s.

5. Consumer sentiment at all time low

6. Consumer debt at an all time high

7. Stock and real estate bubbles are showing signs of continued decline. With loss of "paper wealth" from real estate and stock market crashes, consumers feel poorer and spend less, further deepening economic misery.

8. 70% of US citizens feel as though the nation and the economy are headed in the WRONG DIRECTION.


Its tough to be a liberal anymore when all that Biden delivers is more and more bad news.
