The bigger the gov’t get, the poorer and less free the people get.
Big unconstitutional gov’t - the Road to Serfdom.
But the nation’s elite...all of whom are Rat Party supporters...are better off today.
There are actually many conservatives who are quite wealthy.
Can confirm.
Nobody in DC cares in the slightest.
The Biden misery index is rising they mean
Hey…I have and idea! Let’s start ww3. That will solve our misery problem!
Wrong. History shows that marginal rate cuts INCREASE revenue. Also a 20% import tariff would bring in $1T/yr. Those two things, and small cuts in spending, would balance the budget. However making a dent in the accrued debt is another story.
Misery loves company.
Duh; Marxist Dems brought it on, being let by an avowed Marsist; Obozo, Rice and Monaco.
And with actual inflation, even if you are richer, you’re poorer.
Exactly. They really don't care. When one is in the middle of a sexual or spending orgy, who does someone care about? Right. No one but self. Almost all of them have been or are participating in both events.
Sounds to me like they better get working on doing these things before it gets worse. If the government just thought like individual consumers have to, maybe we wouldn’t be in this mess.
“...and immigrants account for ALL the labor force growth since the pandemic, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics...”
Oh, Goody! Import some more illegals, Brandon!
“In June, a 70,000 increase in government jobs boosted payroll employment by 206,000.”
This needs to be slashed to the BONE! Having worked for both the State and the Feds, I went through a number of ‘downsizes’ and you know what? The work STILL got done and no one lost their job - they just stopped creating ‘pretend’ positions for friends and relatives!
(Those jobs that the Son of the General gets right out of ROTC? Nothing more USELESS in this world than a Butter Bar 2nd Lieutenant, LOL! I’ve ‘trained’ a number of them through the years!)
Oh, man it SLAYS me that I used to run our Family Assistance Program on $30K a YEAR for the entire STATE of Wisconsin! And we had to go to the Wisconsin State Senate to ask for continued funding (this was during ODS) and good old Russ Feingold (D, WI) made it seem that he was writing us a personal CHECK for it! What an @ss. I was in my Class A Uniform that day and some punk hippie SPIT on me on the Capitol steps. And then he ran and I took off after him, but he was lucky I was in HEELS that day, LOL! My loathing for, ‘The People’s Republic of Madistan’ knows no bounds!
Amazingly, The United States is STILL ranked as the TOP ECONOMY, worldwide! And THAT, Kids, is WHY the Socialist Democrats are able to win elections and implement every devastating ‘policy’ (Constitutional or NOT!) that harms Americans and they get away with it! They have yet to run out of, ‘Other People’s Money’ and we still have a long way to go until we hit bottom, for as BROKE as we all feel these days. :(

Also: Taxation is THEFT! Inflation is THEFT! Plan your life accordingly. Thwart them at every turn! :)
What did we think was going to happen when we offshored our manufacturing, technology, money, and tax base? Were we honestly stupid enough to think our lives were going to improve because they would only offshore everyone else’s jobs?
Poorer is better than dead, at the hands of your own parents. Poorer is better than perverteder, which is also true.
The fantasy was we were going to manage the world’s money. It didn’t work out.
The richest county in the USA is a suburb of DC, Loudoun County, Virginia.
