The communists are back in power and no longer care as they got what THEY wanted by releasing it.

The report, released by economists at the University of Chicago and University of Notre Dame, found that the nation's poverty rate increased by 2.4 percentage points between June and December, surging from 9.3% to 11.8%. Very misleading math.
The poverty rate actually increased by 26.8%
[(11.8 - 9.3) / 9.3] * 100

Both correct. It is a 26.8% increase from 9.3 but as a percentage “point” increase its 2.4.

Must be lie, since Biden is there to rescue them and provide for them with 'government' benefits and money. And, Covid-19 is no longer a problem since Biden's election means that, the virus is on the run and will magically disappear by spring.

Yes...correct but misleading.
Most folks out in Sinsheim will read “2.4 point increase” and think “that’s not so bad.”

"The communists are back in power and no longer care as they got what THEY wanted by releasing it."Thanks for posting lgjhn23.
If I understand you correctly, I respectfully disagree that communist Democrats got what they wanted by releasing COVID-19.
More specifically, a red tsunami of patriots overwhelmingly reelected Trump regardless of virus. So the Democrat’s politically correct election year pandemic lockdown was arguably a waste of everybody’s time since all that they needed to do “elect” Biden was cheat the ballot box.
Corrections, insights welcome.

Finally...
Someone points out the most relevant fact in this coup...
The stage was set in 2016 when they realized that the old propaganda was getting limp...
That is when this coup, and the main strategy for victory, was devised...
Distract them with the chicoms help... All the while prep the theft...
Thinking back we have to remember that Joe gave it away weeks before the election when he blurted out that the votes won't count, he will win the election...
That is why they buried him in that Delaware basement until after the election...

Isn’t that part of the plan?
To: crusty old prospector
About 80 million aggregate lost their jobs since the lockdowns. Most regaining new or existing employment with severe pay and benefits cut. About 70% of these with pay and benefits substantially less than previous salary and benefits. Personally, I’m back down at a level not seen since my college days 30 years ago.

Thank the democrats for that one.
It would be interesting to see the dispersal of the data, which states this has most occurred in.
I have my suspicions, but some hard numbers would be nice and indicting.

Rat politicians here wanted to raise the sales tax here from 4% to 6% and called it “only a 2% increase.”

The WuFlu provided the excuse/cover for what they needed to do to cheat the ballot box.
