Let’s get ready to stumble!

Yes, everything is seemingly rising in price, yet REAL average hourly earnings growth keeps falling. Rising price + declining real earnings growth = eventual recession.

With the incredible increase in Money Supply, paired with going into a mid-term election and politicians promising the world to get elected, food shortages, high crime and whatever else you can think of, this is a perfect storm for Chaos.

For the love of all thats merciful and right. Why cant the oil companies just be ordered to pump fkg oil and stop this insanity? We produce 1.5Million barrels less oil PER DAY than we did in 2020 for crying out loud.

Yes, prices are spiraling out of control... Yes, the economy is experiencing stagflation... Yes, foreign policy is a disaster.... Yes, there’s an invasion happening along the southern border ... BUT the important thing is that Joe Biden is the scourge of “racists” and “transphobes.”

Where do you get “gasoline prices up 89%”?
The gas where I live is up 255%. $1.80 on 2020 election day, $4.59 today.

Domestic oil production is to American industry what baby formula production is to babies. Great job Biden Administration! Get in the way of everything we need to survive. Food, energy, Healthcare, housing, transportation..........Anyone noticing a scary pattern here? It’s deliberate.
