All prices have gone out of site due to spending and free money given out by Biden. Along with his open border, he is destroying this nation.

The findings are another reminder of how much more expensive life has become since Covid-19.(shouldn't that say since Joe Biden)


I know that it's hard to remember, but... COVID was under Trump. And the fact that the US had one of the worst impacts from COVID in the world is a direct reflection of Trump's failure to act.

You continue to blame Biden for Trump's failures, even when you know that it's a Trump failure. Why? Are you so desperate for your party to win that you'll happily sacrifice the nation?

Certainly has nothing to do with those pesky trump tariffs your relative told you about....

So amazing to watch you whine daily about government needing to do more to take care of you because of your poor financial decisions.

Some may call you a communist.

The price for owning a home is rising rapidly - and we're not just talking about mortgage payments.

US homeowners are now paying an average of $18,118 a year on property taxes, homeowners' insurance, maintenance, energy and various other expenses linked to owning a home, according to a new Bankrate study.

That's nearly the cost to buy a used car and represents a 26% increase from four years ago when it cost $14,428 annually to own and maintain a home.

All of these variable expenses are on top of the fixed cost of a mortgage, including property taxes, homeowners insurance, energy costs, internet, cable bills and home maintenance.
