    Bidenflation: The price of a July 4th cookout is up 17% this year.

    It just keeps getting worse. Every fill up, every trip to the store sucks a little more life out of the family of the Hard Squeezed American Worker.

    If it's not
    soaring inflation it's supply chain snags. Our Transportation Secretary is focused racist overpasses.

    "Prices of ground beef, chicken breasts, pork chops, pork and beans, lemonade and other products have seen significant increases."

    Meanwhile we learn today tha Biden paid Hunter's Hooker bills. They have lots and lots of money, so these price hikes aren't hurting them.

    "The cost of fuel is up and fertilizer prices have tripled.”

    Biden's BS won't grow crops.

    "Beef and poultry, as well as pork and even lemonade and potato salad are all up this year."

    "Americans are planning to spend less this year on July 4th celebrations this year because of Bidenflation. Two-thirds of Americans plan to spend less money this year compared to last year. 57% said the reason is they are feeling the pinch of inflation. Summer spending, in general, is predicted to be down."

    "Most survey participants said they don’t plan to go holiday shopping this year. Again, the reason is inflation. "

    Will Biden and the Dems steal Christmas?

    "Inflation is taking a toll on mental health, too, especially among those who are unable afford basic needs due to soaring costs."

    "The availability of mental health access is often lacking during the best of times. With an increase of people feeling pressure today to keep up with higher prices on everyday necessities, mental health resources must be feeling the pinch, too. Times are tough in Biden’s America. No one is in the mood for happy talk "

    White House Desperate To Make New Oil Deals As Gas Prices Crush Biden

    [​IMG]
    "A stagflation event is like an avalanche, it's going to come rushing down the mountain and there's no slowing it once it gets moving."

    First they claimed it wasn't a problem, until it became undeniable and began to affect election polling, then they claimed it was someone else's fault, and the polls keep getting worse, so now he is pursuing "show" solutions that have little chance of working.

    It is quite amusing that Biden is begging the Middle East for oil after having said the following things:

    "I want you to look at my eyes. I guarantee you, I guarantee you we’re going to end fossil fuels"

    and

    "No more drilling, including offshore. No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill, period. It ends.”

    What a clown - wants to shut down the oil industry, but is begging other countries for more oil. How stupid.

    But..... Let's go Brandon!

    oil companies had thought no way the economy recovers this fast, so did not increase supply, but Biden did it, recovered the economy and then some, Diaper Donald never could have pulled that off

    Biden is getting them to increase supply, will take a few more months yet though

    Biden and his people don't care about a July 4th cookout -- they hate the USA and their policies show it.

    The allegation that inflation is 7% or so- is a bald-faced lie. Looking at everything we buy from food to commercial supplies for business or home, nothing is only 7% up. Many things are 400% up, and a great many things are 100% up. But nothing is only 7%.

    The proper classification for this administration is Gross incompetence without the slightest offset of having good intentions. Nobody can be as stupid in managing things as these people are; it's intentional.

    You are worried about 17% rise on cookouts when à record number of people can't afford more than one meals a day for their children?
    What planet are you on?

    My fireworks bill was almost triple what it was last year. Food is much more this year. Biden is attacking the very fabric of this nation in his arrogance and folly.

    Best to know what facts are important and which are mère frippery.
    Your "facts" are merely superficial entertainment.

    A record number where? Worse, as the cost of food goes up around the world, the cost is going to further increase the number of folks who won't be able to afford it. Are you proud of your progressive policies yet?

    You have an opinion. Does it make you feel better about yourself that you might be able to afford the rise in prices? Democrats in this country seem to believe in the "comfort" of thought that paying more and being able to pay more for less gives to folks.

    That "too much money" makes my money worth a lot less. We have gone from saving a bit each month to our savings going down each month. That is not good for us who are retired and whose income is on the low side.

    The Bidephiles don’t care. As long as they can push a progressive agenda then the hell with the common people.

    I am not at all happy about it.
    I didn't say I was.
    I was commenting on your priorities and THEIRS.
    Hardly on the same planet of comparability.
    I am so sorry about the cost of your firreworks. Such a shame.

    Rubbish.
    I am far more unhappy that fat cats complain about the cost of fireworks when the poor have trouble putting food on the table.

    First I wouldn't spend money on fireworks unless I was comfortably off.
    I am not.
    You OTOH are concerned that they cost 17% more.
    I care about those who can't pay to either heat or eat.
    So whose priorities are the more noble then?

    Inflation is a worldwide phenomenon. Do you think Joe Biden's policies are so powerful and far reaching that it's all his fault?
