I thought republicans didn't even like NATO, what's the butthurt about this?
We had to choose that long before this administration. The primary source of inflation is corporate greed and the top 0.1% demanding more from the rest of us, while paying less themselves, a position they only get away with because of conservatives.
Because there are no penalties or dis-incentives for corporations not to buy up all the land and houses. Every time we try to impose such rules, it gets shot down by republicans.
Border. Also, the implied violence and expulsion against undocumented workers is what enables employers to pay them such a cheap wage and enforce abysmal working conditions on them. The correct solution is to provide an easy path for work visas, and heavily penalize companies for hiring undocumented workers. You'll never guess who is against doing that though...
Your comment is peak "stick in bicycle" meme.
Im not a republican!
Food prices inflated during the current administration, food was super affordable. What did Biden do to try and control inflation? Nothing could care less.
Again housing was affordable during the trump administration its not affordable anymore and if the dems win housing will just continue to be un affordable. Its been 4 years and they have done nothing!
They opened the boarder to replace you open your eyes man. No body does anything out of the kindness of their hearts.
You voting for this current mess is the bicycle meme lol
Press 'X' to doubt.
Which grocery company does Biden run where he can decide to reduce the prices?
As someone who had to look for housing 3 times during Trump's administration: no, it wasn't affordable.
Who is "They"?
No shit. Is that why you are voting for the orange fascist?
Then dont assume right and whats the point of assuming? I correct you and you still doubt it lol ok I see why you want to vote for “Them”.
Which grocery store does trump own cause he had way better prices.
But you found a home now its unaffordable 80% increase in the last 4 years. Thanks Biden you the best!
They are them!
Im voting for my interest not against it!
Who is "They" again?
Grocery prices were "good" during the end of the trump admin because grocery purchases were waaaay down during the global pandemic. Are you saying you'd prefer a global pandemic to paying hiked up prices for eggs?
I actually bought my first home this year, whaddya know.
Thank your buddy Putin for throwing the wheat prices off all over the globe. It’s not just the US that has felt inflation. But your head is so far up your ass you can’t recognize that.
