CPI Rises Again

Yeah, that smooth runway of rate cuts heading into election 2024 is looking more like a runway at Damascus International Airport.

Biden and Democrats America. Biden's Presidency has been the worse since Carter. He's a bumbling idiot managed by a bunch of socialist idiots. The government is the problem. All of this goes away if we vote for people who are willing to drastically cut the government.

I don't understand how the BLS calculates Medical Care CPI. There is literally no possible way that medical care only went up that much in three years. There are labor shortages everywhere, supply shortages, etc.

I agree. It has to be higher. I'm not sure how it is calculated.

Imagine if he gets elected. Believe them when they say they want to expand gov and create the largest social safety net. Covid spending was just a fortuitous vehicle for them to do the social spending they wanted.
I agree. The left has never been this crazy. They’ve officially stopped even pretending to care about budgets and are determined to rob the U.S. (taxpayers) of our wealth.

Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where's the streetwise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed
Late at night, I toss and I turn
And I dream of what I need
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life

In response to the report, President Biden said "Nothing to see here folks, inflation is transitory so that must make CPI non binary and that's okay by me..."

Good news folks!! Bidenomics is working!! We're creating jobs faster than ever before. And that's a good thing because you're going to need about three of them!

Ok. Maybe the GOP should nominate a fiscal conservative then. Something they haven't done in... Well... ever...
Trump hasn’t said he wants to see the same social expansion as Dems. Biden was possessed trying to ram through massive stim packages

Trump is responsible for an insanely idiotic tax cut and then continued to spend like a drunken sailor. He is Populist and not fiscally conservative at all.

Is spending the problem or not the problem?

I’ll concede Trump wasn’t a fiscal conservative . I’ll also concede Republicans aren’t fiscally conservative enough in my opinion. Neither to this extent. The chart clearly shows just how crazy spending has gotten under Biden and there are zero attempts to curtail it. They’re proposing the opposite. Just keep spending more.

Why can’t Democrats behave rationally? Obama wasn’t insane. This is similar to the border issue. Democrats 10 years ago were not this reckless. It’s like everyone is hypnotized by Trump and stopped caring about the crazy things Democrats are doing. For some reason we treat Democrat leaders like helpless children. Why? Once again, Obama was nothing like the current crop of Democrats. This is not sustainable and is the greatest threat to the U.S.

It is the greatest threat to the US by far. There’s a difference between emergency spending to address a one time concern and spending to create massive gov and the largest social safety net in history that’ll become institutional

The deficit was going up prior to the pandemic. Then exploded during. Now is coming down. Seems good, no?

Has the GOP submitted a counter budget for 2025?

Every Republican president since Reagan has left office with a higher deficit than what they inherited. Every democrat the opposite.

Never forget, Mydorkis very specifically said... "within the frame work of the system, we are doing everything that we can".... Within the frame work... Doing what they can.... NOW. NO ONE in the media asked what their goal was or what they were working towards.
These fvckers use micro nuance to tell you that they are stealing your daughter, withing the framework of the system.
Marxist is a dna gene and they feel empowered to look you in the eye and tell you exactly what they are doing.
Romney negotiates and then agrees, Trumpsters shoot them in the forehead. Point blank.

Here's how I measure inflation: I was driving back from Florida today and stopped at the Miickey D's drivr-thru. Filet O' Fish, medium fries, and large Coke.

$10.30. Insane.
$9.99 4 pack of the little sbx. Unreal. I remember it was $4.99 UNDER DONALD TRUMP!!!!

I looked at my credit card statement and I bet I'm paying at least 40% more on fast food than I did a few years ago. I don't eat it a lot, but I like to get an Egg McMuffin every once in a while. And their double cheeseburgers are actually pretty good.

In fairness, they do run specials for 2 breakfast sandwiches for $4.98. It also pays to use the apps at these places - you get a freebie every once in a while.

1982, drivers education class (i'm A freshman). Teacher was Steve Rendenbaugh. Anyone recall that name??????
First class, we be cruisin, vroom vroom. I'm driving.
Mr Redenbaugh says, "follow this road down to the intersection, turn left and find the McDonalds parking lot. I'm gonna buy everyone an egg McMuffin... I like those". (McDonalds at 45/46 : Walnut street intersection FYI, Where Xavier was running 90 mph) My family got a treat to go to McDonalds, once every 2 weeks, on a Friday night.
it was less than $15 to feed 4 of us. NEVER EVER dreamed of having a breakfast there! ! EVER EVER.
I think McMuffins were ~$.65 then ??? +/-
Anyway, My thoughts (out loud), we are in "class" Mr Redenbaugh. We can't stop at McDonalds... can we??? He said, Joey, you've been driving a tractor for 6 years. Let go have breakfast.

At that point, my understanding of life changed.
 
Lefty take per usual from Slate, but some interesting perspectives nonetheless:

Here's why Biden isn't being credited with improving the economy:
