Why are Democrats are bragging how they already started making things more affordable this week by making stocks much cheaper?

That would depend on who owns and who's buying.
They are stupid!

Seeing that there are about 170 million Americans who own stocks either directly or indirectly in their pension plans, I have a feeling that the record stock drop after the Democrats took over last week is not sitting well with them.

They talk socialism but are owned by corporate oliarch masters.

Half a thumbs on this one. Yes they are corrupt and fakes, phonies and frauds, but "corporate oligarchs" is a misnomer. It is the corporations that create the things that people want to voluntarily buy because they think it makes them better off and that create jobs that pay for the best lifestyle in human history. Contrast that with the government that only takes your hard earned money, creates nothing and forces you to buy whether you want to pay for what they are selling or not.
