Do we need a new class subject in school called Bidenomics?

[Daniela1982]

The average family spends $11,434 a year more on goods since January 2020. 😡

[Massageman]

Fourth grade math should suffice. (Heaven forbid we come up with ANOTHER useless class- the answers can already be derived from existing classes in math.) That should get one through division and multiplication (to conquer unit pricing) to watch how quickly your money will be disappearing. Example- a QUART of (reconstituted) lemon juice was $1.00 at Dollar Tree. Now, a HALF-LITER is $1.25. Question - how badly are we getting screwed? Answer- The lemon juice is now about 2.366 times more expensive than before, or nearly 237% of what is was before.

Maybe we need a class in the constitutionality and legality of this jazz - - - - - -

[Static_In_The_Attic]

It should definitely be a college course & it should be a free course if you are not a citizen in the UnUnited States Of America. Also just for walking in the door or signing up for the course each student should receive a gift card with $100,000 on it.

[Daniela1982]

They wouldn't have enough teachers for that. 😯

[Static_In_The_Attic]

Online courses?

[DrPepper12]

@daniela1982 @Surely @DJB72 @Static_In_The_Attic @you_asked

All of you are so tragically and willingly misinformed!! It's almost like you're in a cult!!

Incentives are no different than sin taxes that seek to change consumer behavior. All sides of the aisle use both!

Not ONE of you identified the pandemic and corporate greed as the source of inflation. That's either dishonest or ignorant. Inflation follows pandemics as a natural and irrefutable law of economics.

ALL of you trust GROK! That in itself says not only do you prefer misinformation but have no qualms with disinformation.

And, just for giggles, can any of you define MAGAnomics?

[Daniela1982]

@DrPepper12 The pandemic is over, yet I see no decrease in spending. Just bigger defense budgets, throwing money at Ukraine, and spending a $trillion on illegal immigrants who are doing nothing for the country but instead complain about their food, lodgings, and are making more and more demands for handouts, while the citizens who pay for all this get jack shit.

[DrPepper12]

Thank you for at least sticking to the issue of economics mostly kinda. I highly highly highly suggest you watch the movie A Day without a Mexican. It will set you straight on the economics of migration

[DrPepper12]

Watch "A Day Without A Mexican" and get back to me on the economics of migrants. We guaranteed Ukrainian security for them giving up nukes back to USSR.

[Daniela1982]

@DrPepper12 The Mexicans you are talking about are legal migrants who come over from Mexico to pick produce and the like. They are here legally and go back home after the harvesting season is over. They do not get freebies or expect anything other than to be paid for their work. But they have been doing this for generations in California and are good people. They don't cause trouble nor commit crimes. And they certainly do not make demands of the government to give them cell phones, health care, gourmet food, or free hotel accommodations, and a free debit card to buy drugs, booze, or whatever, and free airfare to anyplace they want to go so they can disappear. They are not costing the government $billions of dollars. Legal immigrants are welcome. They usually wait for a few years to gain entry and have sponsors. The sponsors guarantee the government that they will have jobs and a place to live so they are not a burden to taxpayers. So I have no problem with legal immigration. I do not like moochers or prison inmates dumped on the US to continue with their gangs and crimes.

[DrPepper12]

Funny thing is you and I could solve illegal immigration right now. Just fine the employers repeatedly and progressively until they hire American citizens! Don't you support that? They're lawbreakers and MAGA is all about law & order! Amirite?

[Daniela1982]

@DrPepper12 I am definitely not for laying off Americans from their jobs so they can give them to the illegals. If the US does not have jobs for them they should not let them in. Or at least stay in Mexico until your asylum case is heard. The poor in America can hardly make a living. Believe it or not there are a lot of hungry or starving people in America. Yet the government doesn't help them. It is up to charities like Feed America to help them. Meanwhile the illegals throw away their food and complain about it. I'm sure the starving Americans would love to have that food that they toss.

[DrPepper12]

You are being manipulated by wealthy and corporations. They WANT class, race, ethnic, regional, financial warfare to distract you!! You and I have more common interests than either of us and the 1%!!!

[TommyMountainFigure]

Why would you want kids to learn that, when it's Biden that needs to go back to school?

[Daniela1982]

If Rodney Dangerfield could do it, so could Biden. They just need a nurse with him to change his diapers.

[TommyMountainFigure]

Ahh yes, who could forget the triple Lyndi (did I spell that right?)

[TommyMountainFigure]

Lindy dagnammit

[TommyMountainFigure]

<< Wondering if I should go Back to School too

[Daniela1982]

🤔📚 More knowledge is always a good thing.

[Surely]

Maybe this is why they don’t teach math anymore. Then all they need to do is to reprogram their phones to make Biden’s economics look good? When I was in school. They taught mental math and calculators were not allowed. 🚫

[normalice]

Sure as long as the class adequately explains how a US president has no control over inflation. Otherwise it's just more far right misinformation.

[Daniela1982]

Sure he does. He is causing people to buy stuff they don't want - EV cars, no gas-powered lawn equipment, and now electric semi-trucks. And actually he will be adding to pollution as we will need more coal fired electric generating plants to carry the electrical load.

[DJB72]

Don't forget bullshit taxes - a standard "green" tax is the Carbon Tax in most "developed" nations. You know, the government taxing us for using stuff that puts what all life on earth requires - CO² - into the atmosphere so the current "greening" of the planet can continue to recover an area of 5% of the total land mass of the planet in the last decade, that helps prevent warming.

That increases food costs because farmers need diesel to grow plants and raise livestock, and more to transport to the stores. And a soft target for "green" taxes is fuel.

And Biden most definitely does create that mess of increases in America

[normalice]

@Daniela1982 He's not causing anyone to buy anything they don't want, he ins incentivizing a few things with tax credits but they are far from mandatory.

It seems like the problem might be that you don't want his policies of not raining more money on the rich to work? Or is it that you just want christian nationalism? These are literally the only two popular things Biden is wholly against at the moment.

@DJB72 turns out breathable air and a livable atmosphere is popular to anyone who isn't a little baby who can't think passed the next five seconds of their life. I understand you rage junkies are determined to stay mad but just know that I know it's not because you want to fix the problem but because you just want christian nationalism.

[Surely]

@daniela1982. I believe that I heard that the plans are to shut down all coal fired plants by 2035! Do we have enough extension cords to reach China and plug into their coal fired plants? I believe that China must be in a different atmosphere than we are! Since Biden doesn’t seem to care how much pollution they produce.

[normalice]

@Surely the whole problem with being a rage junkie is your brain loses its ability to process anything that doesn't make. For one thing China added almost 300TW of renewable energy last year. For another china's problems are not supposed to be bidens problems, so it's telling when you reach so far for something to bitch about (and it turns out to be made up anyway).

[DrPepper12]

The fed controls monetary policy. Pres only PROPOSES fiscal policy and that budget won't effect economy until years later. You're misinformed

[Daniela1982]

@Surely That is true. We have no control on pollution in other countries, which the air currents eventually dump on everyone.

[Surely]

@normalice. So, your are a 44 year old student? Please tell us why the United States citizens are supposed to buckle down and save the planet while China and India continues to add tremendous pollution and carbon to our atmosphere! After all, “They are good folks, folks!”

[normalice]

Or, I just haven't updated my profile in 10 years. And why would I try to justify a problem you made up just now? The actual problem appears to be your addiction to anger and grievance, and the permanent brain damage that addiction has caused you. Sadly, there isn't anything I can do about it over the internet other than describe the problem.

[Surely]

@normalice. Why is it that the Biden lovers of the world can not carry on a debate without name calling and lying? Is it because there is nothing good about Biden to debate? So you need to try and put everyone else down that doesn’t agree with you?

[Daniela1982]

@normalice if we all lived by the 10 commandments we would be in way better condition as a nation and the same with our own lives. How do you think it would be if no one killed, lied, stole, and honored their mother and father, as well as loving each other instead of everyone hating on each other? I think Christian Nationalism would not do us any harm.

[normalice]

@Surely it's not "name calling" to call a liar a liar. It's a description. Stop being a rage junkie and ill stop calling you a rage junkie 🤷

@Daniela1982 at least you admit christian nationalism is your true goal. And because you know only the vastly insecure or brain damaged would go along with christian nationalism, you have to lie and provide false premises, like you have done with this question, to trick people into going along with christian nationalism by association. You people nominated an adulterer for your presidential nominee so you can shut your dumb trap about any interest in living by the ten commandments. You just want power and political violence like every other brain damaged monkey ever.

[Surely]

@normalice. Well then. I can honestly call you a liar because of your profile. Now, without lying, please tell me why you are calling me a rage junky. What exactly did I write? The Democrats way are to say bad untruths about the people that love this country. While they are allowing who knows what to enter the US illegally and are doing everything that they blame others for.

[Daniela1982]

@normalice And don't forget the military age single men coming in from China. Nothing like beating the enemy from within and with Biden's blessings. The same with the Venezuelans from their prisons who were dumped here, just like the Cuban government did years ago. I might ad that the Mexican gangs, like M13, are a real concern in California. For all we know they may be part of the reason for missing girls in the US. While the fear of being kidnapped may persist for one’s entire life, in 2022 the number of missing persons under the age of 21 was much higher than those 21 and over, with 206,371 females under 21 reported missing, and 64,956 females over the age of 21 reported missing. Why is that not a concern for Biden, or you, for that matter?

[normalice]

@Surely I was true when I wrote it.

@Daniela1982 I'm not familiar with the far right misinformation you are puking up, sorry.

[DrPepper12]

What's the difference between Christian nationalism and Islamic sharia caliphate?

[DrPepper12]

How do you live your life in fear and rage like that? Assuaging yourself with conspiracies and lies? It's really sad

[Daniela1982]

@normalice You are done here since you have to resort to name calling and being a dickhead. No one needs that shit. Bye!

[vindaloo]

You didn't have a problem with namecalling when you or that other guy who agrees with you did it. You just don't like being told your misinformation is wrong. You're not fooling anyone..

[OddBeMe]

No. A class on basic economics would suffice. Inflation happens everyday. Just recently because of Covid, it’s gone a few percentiles aboveboard.

Look up milk prices in 1920, dumbass.

[handsomelad70]

As long as there's no course called Trumpenomics !!!

[AngryCarl]

Your source is Grok. AI? You're asking a chatbot for economic data?

[you_asked]

Can’t wait for some MAGAnomics

[exitseven]

No, it will encourage them.
