Everyone is working two jobs to try keep up with inflation. 

So many , and still can’t afford rent, food, clothing, health insurance, gas.heat, the important essential items.  People buy food, fill up three plastic bags, it cost one 80 bucks.

Revelation 6:6.  A loaf of bread will soon cost one a whole days wage.  Is in the Bible , you need to know God.  This country is run by the heathens the biden and trumps and the USA government is not good.  No be fooled like the OP, this economy is awful, the government wants everything, this country which was once a God so blessed by God is now a shell of its old self.   We kill children like they are trash, we removed prayers from schools and trying to everywhere else one can go, this country mocks God.  But it’s also the whole world, doomsday is coming, I just want you to be ready, turn to the Lord, don’t trust in yourself, nor man.   God bless, I hope.  

Revelations may need a price check. A loaf of bread is 3 bucks  

This is all fine however you do whatever you want just keep it to yourself, your family, random message boards. If people want to listen, by all means. 

I don’t need it, millions of people don’t need it though.

This is so silly.  The country was doing great until Covid destroyed the entire world economy.  To blame Trump for it is inane.  There is plenty about Trump to complain, this isn't one.  Be better.

Selfish or scared? I can understand those without tenure trying to walk a line to keep from getting fired. But that doesn't mean they have to toe the line.

I honestly believe that even before Covid, Trump’s tariffs were going to lead to long term economic problems. Biden doesn’t get any credit in this regard either, since for the most part he has failed to lift the tariffs.

It is true Covid ruined many things. This doesn't mean the moment the next person takes over it things are suddenly different, correct?

The issues that made everything suck are still there to be dealt with.

It makes the entire premise of your post dumb; read your first sentence.  And now you are saying that somebody with (barely) a pulse was POTUS while the country inevitably did better, because it couldn't do worse, woo hoo!

You folks can’t have it both ways. Covid ruined the wonderful Trump era - Without Covid we’d be fantastic. Sure. Covid focked many things up and was going to take time to fix. 

Our country is doing well compared to other relative nations which is a good gauge.

I agree with the general premise of this thread that the economy is in decent shape. 

Falling back on the Biden doesn’t have a pulse shtick is lame and sloppy. Be better.

Can’t keep the truth from others, when I see someone in danger, you, I need to be of some help.  You need God, all those others of millions need God, and you will beg for His mercy and grace soon enough.  God bless, I hope.

I wish he did create all those "new" jobs but that is a fable. And I am not a Trump fan.

 

Fact Check:  

These claims are misleading. Here’s why.

• Recovery versus “Creation.” Nearly 72 percent of all job gains since 2021 were simply jobs that were being recovered from the pandemic, not new job creation. In fact, when looking at today’s economy compared to pre-pandemic levels, employment is up only by 3.7 million. Job creation under President Trump was 6.7 million—3 million more jobs than the current President.

That's a nice Republican spin, but that's not how jobs are counted.  People lose jobs and then get jobs.

I think we're going to see more and more teachers pushing back on the woke buIIshit. The pendulum always swings back the other way. And it swings back farther in the other direction. 

The problem is when it swings back the other way again.

That's a whole different spin now.  Job switching doesn't count because the total number of jobs stays the same.  Now If someone takes my old McDonald's job, then thats 1 job created, because it's one more person employed.

This isn't hard guys.  Simple math.  How many people have jobs today, how many people have jobs the next day, etc.  get it?

Well there was no 50-75% increase, that's a lie.  And no it's not catastrophic.  People still eat right?  There is no catastrophe.

Oh so it's a word problem you have.

There are 14m more people working now than when Biden took office.  That's 14m people who didn't have a job that do have a job now.  You don't want to call it jobs created, yay for you.  But that's a good thing, especially for those 14m people.

No there is actually a metric that we have always used it’s literally called workplace participation.

Seriously any of us could have been president and stated, "Let businesses open back up" after the whole chinese flu fiasco and I guess we would be credited for "creating" millions of jobs.

Liberals are so dumb. 

[Ron_Artest 681]

So now we've pivoted from "it wasn't 14m jobs" to "well anyone could have done it"

And these same people blame Biden for inflation but not trump.

Went to carmax yesterday. Kbb on my delivery van was 13k. They offered 4k. Said they have such a surplus of repos and trade ins they don’t even want them so they undercut big time.  It served the purpose for 4k I kept the van and just bought the other one I was going to trade it in for 

win for them

if I took the trade. Win for them
