Well he approved of increasing the Debt by about $8 Trillion and laid the foundation for the inflation we have now which Biden doubled down on with his spending.

Trump needs to punish them. Tax them on worldwide income and an additional tax for every employee they have that is receiving welfare benefits because they don’t pay enough. These CEOs profiteered off Covid, which we now know was a massive transfer of wealth upwards. Make these CEOs and businesses suffer.

CEOs are picked by their boards.

Boards of public companies cater to their institutional investors.

The institutional investors are Deep State.

I think he had a lot of help for that from congress.

"The Business Roundtable, a lobby group for big companies"

Everybody needs to remember that the Business Roundtable were the earliest and LOUDEST advocates for MANDATORY Covid vaccinations.

The Business Roundtable also demanded that Biden be named president after the November 2020 election, even before the 2020 vote recounts and investigations were completed.

Worse than the first? Do they mean that there could be 1.1% inflation instead of 1.5%? Or will gas be $1.89 a gallon instead if $1.99? Or will milk be $1.79 a gallon instead if $1.99?

The CEOs of today are not the same creature as the CEOs of our granddaddies’ era.
They come out of woke, moronic indoctrination centers pretty much as nitwits. For example, just look at that cross-dressing clown that’s the CEO of United Airlines...whadda joke. They’re all groomed by DS to serve DS. In the old days, they were responsible to the shareholders and their board of directors....not so much these days.

The last time I read any article from The Economist was about 20+ years ago. The publication is an embarrassment.
