Clyburn: We ‘Knew’ ‘Recovery Program’ Would Cause Inflation, ‘I Resent’ Those Who’d Rather Have Cheaper Gas than Jobs and Education
Breitbart ^ | 10/21/2022 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 10/21/2022 5:50:06 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Jose Diaz-Balart Reports,” House Majority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) stated that “all of us knew” prices would increase “when we put in place this recovery program. Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise.” Clyburn also stated that President Joe Biden put kids back in school and has ensured schools are “getting fixed up for climate change” and said, “I resent people who feel that we would much rather not have jobs and education so long as we can pay ten cents less for a gallon of gasoline.”

Clyburn said, “Well, let me make it very clear, all of us are concerned about these rising costs. And all of us knew this would be the case when we put in place this recovery program. Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise. And we do know that price gouging takes place. … We knew that the moment we went to aid the Ukrainians, the Russians would do what they could possibly do to undercut this administration. So, they cut this deal with the OPEC nations to reduce the production of oil so as to drive the price of gasoline up.”

Shut up you old racist RAT token. Your shtick is getting really boring and obnoxious. Tell it to your white DNC massas. We don’t want to hear it.

He’s either stupid or out of touch with the voters. Either way, he needs to be gone.

Actually, we have expensive gas, and still fewer jobs and way worse education. So he needs to just shut up.

The only reason you needed a “recovery” was because of Bidens programs. Under President Trump things were fine, no “recovery” was needed.

When you raise the price of gas 100%, people lose jobs. As for “education,” the place to get that is not in universities, or even in public school anymore.

We had jobs, education, AND low gas prices under Trump, you moron. Biden is a disaster.

It’s a f*cking crime we we have morons in positions of authority. Jonathan Edwards summed it up nicely in his song, “Sunshine”

How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
Be damned if he'll run mine

Wow! You Kreskin clymers KNEW all that was going to happen and you didn't figure out a way to mitigate it or warn anyone, you just let it hit everyone—except yourselves—in the tuchus?

Is it asking too much for the Republicans to make a national commercial out of this? Clyburn served it up: We Democrats knew we were going to create the worst inflation in 40 years. We Democrats knew we were going to cause gas prices to massively increase. We Democrats knew all this and we Democrats didn't do a thing about any of it except to let it all happen and all of you are paying the price in every way for what we Democrats knowingly did. To you.

Once again, a member of the ruling class totally ignorant of how economics and fiscal policy work. But even though he's ignorant, he has a successful political career because he's a liberal.

That means, even though he's stupid, he's significantly smarter than his constituents.

Not much of a recovery program when the side effect is a depression.

"...we would much rather not have jobs and education so long as we can pay ten cents less for a gallon of gasoline.”

This is an example of two logical fallacies; the False Dichotomy and the Straw Man Argument.
