            My cat has a better grasp on economics than you do. Oh and my cats are rescued from Russia.

              Healthy economies do not have skyrocketing credit card debt, skyrocketing car repos, less savings, increasing evictions, and people losing their homes because of unaffordable housing. If the exact same conditions were happening under a GOP, WH liberals would be in an uproar, but since BlueMAGA is running the show they went to brunch while the world burns.

                  Cant fix it by electing the same people that are extensions of Reagan. Biden is Reagan’s 12th term

                    I didn’t vote for Biden in the Primary, but he was definitely the best option in the general.

                    I’ll take a little progress over a lot of fascism any day.

                That’s all been happening for decades, dude. Literally wtf are you talking about?

                What policies have Republicans presented to address those issues besides cutting taxes for the rich and cutting social programs that support working families?

                    What strawman?

                    You’re saying the things that are happening now, which are not new (or explain how they are) are the result of legislation/policies implemented by Democrats, right? I’m saying that is false and ridiculous.

                    I asked a simple question: what policies have Republicans proposed that would fix the issues you’re concerned about? Don’t worry, I’ll wait.

        That’s the official term presented by the WH. The rest is correct.

      Marketing from the Biden team that Democrats use to support their cause and Republicans ironically use to support their cause.

      Economy in freefall, constantly rising inflation, interest rates through the roof and home prices not falling at all

        Free fall, meaning? Inflation is going down. Interest rates are a mechanism to control inflation, and historically are not all that high. Housing is a problem, but nobody is going to do much about it because something something free market. Not everything is great, but not dismal either. I don’t really see how this is Biden’s fault, but I am sure people will still blame.
