Go Senator Paul!
Well lucky for us there’s the child tax credi............ Oh, no kids in the house. Hmmmmm! Gas or groceries. But you need gas to go get the groceries. Unless you have them delivered. So, groceries or prescriptions............ But, another stroke of luck, this here inflation thing (IF it is a thing) is transitory and we shouldn’t concern ourselves. Right ‘way to go joe’? Easy to not have inflation worries when someone else is picking up the tab.
The dems did this to us.
Inflation is the statist’s friend. It makes the numbers go up (GDP, DOW, average income, etc) go up, giving the illusion of prosperity.
It pushes salaries into higher tax brackets.
It reduces savings to essentially zero, making those folks who have worked hard and saved some money poor and dependent on the government.
It doesn’t affect the ruling elite. They get COLAs and salary increases. They don’t care. It doesn’t affect the indolent who are supported by the government. They get increases.
It’s the rest of the people who get bidened.
For those who have half an hour his full speech is here:

This is just a 2 minute clip that Hannity liked and posted (maybe he will have him on his show?)
Yup...grandma will be eating Democrat Dog Food soon...IF she can even afford that.
I’ve seen & experienced most sides of this picture & none of them are pretty. I always got more raises under S.S. than I did working. Some of the raises I got working were pretty good; others were even more pitiful than under S.S. None have ever been adequate when working under inflationary conditions. There are actual raises & then there are cost of living increases, which I understand might(in some cases)actually cover the cost of inflation. A cost of living increase is really not a raise, but it may help. I never experienced any of those & am curious how many folks did. I experiencend 56+ years in my working life & am now happily retired, but under less than ideal financial conditions.
