  1. Feb 28, 2022 — Because, as we all know, elections matter. And when folks vote, they order what they want. And in this case, they got what they asked for.

  2. Of course the lies about INFLATION started with "it is TRANSITORY deception" and continued with the figure itself. It is around 30% in reality. Gov not ready to adjust SOCIAL SECURITY has lie. But the way BIDEN is fighting it though is very shocking for those who thought they elected SANE person! Beging OIL from SAUDI, hiking rate by 0.75% are indicators that he is NOT NORMAL!

  3. Any international or domestic crisis is a windfall for oil companies because it gives them an excuse to jack up prices and blame it on nebulous micro and macroeconomic bs. According to sources, imported Russian oil accounts for less than 2% of U.S. supply, so to blame price hikes to what is going on in Ukraine is absurd. There is no excuse for this. The obscene gas prices that are causing so much pain in the country right now is a blaring alarm that people should ditch fossil fuel as soon as possible and start embracing renewable energy and Electric vehicles. Even while people can't afford gas, North Carolina Republicans are introducing House Bill 1049 targeting free EV charging stations in that state. Look at the party affiliation of most oil company execs and which party that the vast majority of their lobbying money goes. That's the party you vote against.

  4. My Take is many Corporations and related Huge Conglomerates are networking with the GOP-Faux News nexus for more reasons to Blame everything on Biden and the Democrats … as a political strategy … for their ongoing tax cuts at the top. … IMO: Looks like age old Divide and Conquer Tactics !!! The big power players have too much Monopoly Power. I think we need to apply antitrust ideas to bust monopolies up for a return to competition on even playing fields.

  5. You didn't need data for that, just go to the store or pay rent and utilities.

  6. Yea wtf food want up come on how y'all do that to food

  7. Can we get this idiot out of office ASAP

  8. Sorry, our leaders are more concerned with making Trump look bad, they don’t care about you.

  9. I plan to kill myself

  10. Joe “Repeat the Line” Biden and the idiot Democrats doing a fantastic job so far👍 How much is a breakfast taco?

  11. The FED has lost it and the sad fact is, it's pretty obvious we are headed for hyperinflation. I think stores better have tight security because when people can't afford to feed their families, things might get ugly

  12. What’s the matter? Yah wasn’t complaining about getting that 600 bonus unemployment checks 👀

  13. It's official; every Biden voter betrayed us and they are responsible for our suffering right now, all because they couldn't accept losing the 2016 election.

  14. Thank the democrats and the COVID shutdown of economy. Thanks to Joe and his spending on everything including the Ukraine hush money.

  15. Thank you trump for lowering interest rates in 2018 during a good economy, causing the inflation we have today. It’s amazing how many people don’t know what inflation is, or how the government regulates it.

  16. Yeah but it's okay…. We should keep sending our tax dollars to Ukraine….. welcome to America! Where you have ZERO say in where our money goes….

  17. How is this a shock 🤡

  18. These comments are flooded with Russian Trolls.

  19. $1700 a month for a 1 bedroom. That's insane! That's price is more than some mortgages.
    For minimum wage workers, there's no savings and living from paycheck to paycheck.
    There needs to be a reform, America cannot continue like this. Setting up future America to fail. The wealthy and elites will also be impacted, their workers will not want to work in these types of conditions which will impact their bottom line.
    Just look at the amount crimes happening and thefts, if those people were paid a wage that allows to better their lives they wouldn't be committing crimes.

  20. u voted for this

  21. I see people blame biden because of party lines, people don't understand how the world works as per usual and just blame the president as per usual.

  22. This is what you get when a 79 year old dementia patient is allowed to take control of the car! He drove us right off a cliff…

  23. Ukraine wants $ 9 billion in monthly aid. Kiev has nearly doubled its request for monthly aid from its Western allies, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, citing an economic adviser to the Ukrainian president. “For the next months, we have to receive $9 billion per month instead of $5 billion,” the publication quotes Oleg Ustenko as saying, who added that “it will be next to impossible” for Ukraine to survive without the funds. The figure of $5 billion was announced by Zelensky last month, an amount still way above what Kiev’s allies have provided so far.

    The U.S. has given Ukraine $3 billion in aid over the past two weeks to help Kiev pay public sector-employees.

    What about struggling American taxpayers? Is there anyone in the Biden administration concern about their needs?

  24. Yay Capitalism… ✝️🏛🇺🇸

  28. AT LEAST NO MORE MEAN TWEETS … 😏🙃😀

  29. Thanks trump and republicans. They hate America the most.

  30. What we need is to open the borders and bring in millions more. That will fix rent, food and the price of resources. And then they can use more energy and services. That’ll do it. And if you disagree then you’re racist.

    Democratic Party. Vote for else or else.

  31. £1700 per month rent just for a flat? Madness.
