"The problem is not the White House and it's politics, the problem is you folks forgetting that we have had to drag ourselves out of a pandemic...due to it being ignored by that big ole fugly orange fella

The problem is corporations that didn't make those big profits when all shut down...have been making up for those lost profits ever since!!!"

I"m doing fine and will say I'm definitely better off than 4 years ago.


More savings, more disposable income to better enjoy life with.

Do I watch what I spend of course I do as everyone should.

Well logger...did you make more money in the last 12 months than you did in October 2019 through September 2020?

If so, by percentage... how much more did you make?

Is everyone happy to be paying more for food, gas and everything else since Biden came into office.


Four years ago, we were in the middle of the pandemic. I daresay that everyone is better off.

Yes, inflation existed... on a global level. Which was obviously as a result of the pandemic, unless you think that Biden somehow controlled the global economy starting a year before he was in office.

But since wages have outpaced inflation, the wide majority are doing better. You might not understand that your wages went up to offset inflation, but that doesn't mean that it didn't happen.

I'll be better off when Trump is doing life in Leavenworth for treason, or better yet hanging from the gallows he had constructed for Pence. Maybe they should build new gallows, Mike's might not take the weight.

I'm far better off, but then again, I've worked my tail off to achieve that.


Murcuh!

Only the gowilkes liars say yes.
