I feel sorry for you at times Rob. Everything you listed is from YOUR mind. You actually think that what you said is how I think then you speak for me.
You can be both hot and cold at the same time. I proved that to you.
Just because people are paying more because of inflation does not mean that the extra money they now have to pay is a booming economy. It WILL lead to a recession.
Gas prices under Biden have jumped higher than they were under Trump. Period.
When I earn a raise at work it is because of my performance. It should directly ease my COL. I never said wages should not increase when COL increases, however, my earned raises should go above and beyond that. It is when my earned raises only help me to keep up with COL increases because of inflation due to incompetent government that I take issue. Such is the case with the Biden administration.
Strap in dummy. The recession is coming.
