When you sell your soul for Trump and don’t work for Foxnews, there’s a good chance these people (politicians included) are flushing their careers down the drain. 10 years from now even I think people will look back at how epically dumb they were to be apologist for such a turd sniffing’ piece of shit
Remember that corporations were given billions in handouts via COVID-19 bills,and the fed dropped the Interest rate, both those things caused profits to increase. But they are also both key drivers of inflation. They just pocketed those handout rather than passing them on to the consumer. The reduced competition from small business going under due to lockdowns didn't help either. Strong competition in a free market is still in king. The government should bust antitrust violations, not price fix and drop bombs of printed cash on the economy.
I take kamala's price fixing statements only quasi seriously. Why hasn't she been working on that before? She speaks as though people don't realize that she's currently in power. Probably campaign bluster. But on the other hand, I see so much talk about "the death of capitalism", I'm afraid the Dems may actually try it.
Afraid ... fear, the opium of the U.S. right. Why the heck are you guys so freaking afraid of so freaking everything? Yeesh. You guys steal your own happiness constantly.
We should not have shutdown the economy. Giving it to the people would have caused as much inflation, probably more. But the fact that most of it went to big corporations was just abysmal on many levels. The whole thing had a let's turn on the money printer and pass it amongst our friends feel to it.
