Another good piece Peter.

So much of our "economics" is nonsense.

The Government is NOT a wise spender, savvy investor or in any way structurally incentivized to do anything but SPEND.

The Gov spends to expand its radius, and earn larger returns in the next financial year.

Now we're importing the lowest economic value migrants possible to:

1) bulk the census

2) increase surface area for Gov entitlements

3) turn purple states blue, and turn red states purple

We see it all very, very clearly now.

This "inflation" is also a cruel joke -- intentionally inflamed by the Elite.

Forced transfer of wealth from savers + the Future to the Net Present Value of today's asset owners... aka the Elite.

The Elite are global, they have more in common with fellow Elite in the next country over than their own countrymen.

Yeah, I don’t believe you either. Biden is no hero to all, but he’s so far above the crap Trump put us through. These “fake” numbers use the exact same calculations Trump used for 4 years. At least there is job growth, Trump was the only President to lose more jobs than he created. You’re the one who’s cherry picking data by not considering the alternative. Trump nearly destroyed this country, yet he’ll praise himself as the only true savior of America. Trump added more debt than any President in our history…by trillions. Biden is at least decreasing the deficit. Plus, if you disagree with Biden….so be it. It’s literally okay to disagree with him. He’ll still work with those who don’t see things the same way. Disagree with Trump? Traitorous, instant RINO, expelled and ridiculed by the Party…insufficiently loyal to the man who has a choke hold on democracy. He demands loyalty to him and it’s a one-way street. The crimes he’s committed, the fraud he’s perpetrated for decades…the porn stars he’s “grabbed”, the Miss America contestants he’s “examined” as property. Trump is not a good person. He’s not even a decent human being. He’s bankrupted hundreds of small businesses by stiffing, then suing them into oblivion. He’s lost more money than any other businessman in our country (over the span of his career). 6 bankruptcies while reporting his condo as 3 times the square footage (then trying to claim the elevator’s as living space). There’s so much the Fox News’ of the world won’t let you learn about. They treat him like the true American Idol…worship the man like he’s a god. He is the narcissist of narcissists…and it’s all okay to overlook. Nothing to see here folks….move along, move along. Trump is only capable of tearing us apart, he thrives on creating division, hatred and lie after lie after lie. Harp on Biden and the “fake” numbers all you want. He’s not the solution to all of our problems, but he’s so far above the low bar that Trump lives under. It’s horrifying that you bow down to a man who can only spread hatred, at all times. It’s all he talks about…he ridicules and slanders and spews vitriol. Yet, you still worship him like he’s the only solution to all of our many problems. It’s sad and it’s not a winning strategy…read the tea leaves. Since Trump took over the Republican Party, you keep losing. Trump is incapable of building up others…he’s a master of tearing down everything in his orbit. He’s incapable of bipartisanship in any form…narcissists can’t do anything unless it serves themselves. Americans are more than the Republican Party, so in order to see true growth and success, you’ll need to learn to work across the aisle. That will never, ever happen while Trump is your so-called leader.
