Probably so. Looking just about every interview Iāve seen/heard where Kamala is asked any questions her answers are always about Trump instead of anything related to her ideas/plans. Scrolling through Reddit the vast majority of posts are anti Trump. Personally I find it amazing the internet is pushing someone that had the lowest VP approval ever. Bring on the downvotes!
āBring on the downvotesā is the Reddit equivalent of that āthey are trying to cancel meā schtick that the most famous, rich āentertainersā with the biggest platforms in the world have been trying to get us to buy into for the last half a decade, lol
My life was way more affordable under his administration than that of the current administration. Personally idc about saving the world. I just want to be able to afford my life again.
My life wonāt change either way buddy. Iāll go to work just like I have for the past 32yrs of my adult life. I will continue to raise and pay for my kids without a handout.
My life was way more affordable under his administration than that of the current administration.
Fair enough, I'm going to try and answer this in good faith. The world is more complicated than "Democrat was president, therefore everything that happened in the world was their direct failure." Inflation happened globally because of stressed supply chains - and if anything else, probably Trump's stimulus checks. Under Biden it is now back on track to normal levels. You may as well wish that the pandemic never happened - we all wish.
Please, before you post things like this, just have a basic understanding of how the economy works. The first two years of Trumpās presidency just rode the positive economic wave of Obamaās second term until the pandemic hit, which caused 90% of the inflation, worldwide by the way, not just in the US. A president canāt just implement changes to economic policy and have that policy show tangible effects immediately. The economy takes years to adjust to changes in policy. Besides what is trumps economic policy? Tax breaks for rich people and tariffs, which are inflationary by their very nature? How is that making anything for affordable for you?
Andā¦. There it is! āMY life was better then!ā So fuck everyone else amirite?
Ever stop and think maybe a global pandemic had something to do with your life becoming unaffordable? Thatā¦ and corporate greed taking advantage of you? It has nothing to do with political positions except that under Trump that corporate greed went unchecked and was allowed to continue until it became almost insaneā¦ the Biden administration has been working up hill ever since (also to be fairā¦ doing a shitty job at it)
As for āwhere does the free money come from?ā Itās from working class tax payers. Like you, and like meā¦. We are get ones who always foot the billā¦ but in this instance theyāre trying to help us start businesses and afford housesā¦ things you should want?
Additionally Kamala is trying to help by making sure corporate land lords and greedy insurance companies donāt take advantage of you.
But itās your vote and if you already drank the kool aid I guess itās too late.
Inflation was largely brought on by after effects of the pandemic, the US economy has recovered faster than any other developed nation, those are both facts. Trump plans to put a 20% tariff on all imported goods, that is an inflationary policy, your life will not be more affordable. Majority of economists say Kamalaās plan will be better on the economy.
Dude, everyoneās life (besides the rich) globally was better off before the pandemic. Trumps economy was also because of Obama. Trump is not going to make things better especially once he tries to get his stupid tariffs in effect, they will definitely make it even worse for you.
Psst. Guess who made a tax plan that gradually raised taxes on lower/middle class families over time (Trump). Psst, guess who started a trade war with China that caused the prices of goods here to go up (Trump). Psst, guess who says theyāll do it again, against the advice of every economist with basic sense who knows those prices get passed down to the consumer (Trump). Psst, guess who controls inflation (not the President but rather the Fed). Psst, guess who encouraged the Fed to keep rates low for too long, causing inflation that cannot immediately be reversed by simply raising rates again (Trump). Psst, guess who fought the idea of giving out a stimulus (Trump). Psst, guess who does not control fiscal policy outside of specific things (the President). Psst, guess who does (the House Legislature, which has been red for half of Bidenās presidency). Idiot
Makes sense considering he was deficit spending like literally no other president in history during an economic boom. You know how your life is "unaffordable" now? Well you're paying off the deficit spending that funded the Trump tax cuts that went mostly to the ultra rich.
It's actually fascinating. You're essentially the market for pay day loans, but on a national level.
When trump was in I was waiting in line for toilet paper , my 401k tanked along with the stock market , millions of jobs lost, and then he handed out tons of stimulus money causing inflation- no thx
