The only horse manure I shovel is the crap I am refuting and rebutting from those on the Left. I just had a little one on one with a friend of yours, TJKMO. I basically called him out for not answering my questions and rebuttals of his posts. His excuses are typical Liberal horse manure. I basically said that unlike him, I welcome people questioning what ever I choose to post. Unlike you folks on the Left I see it as an opportunity to further explain my arguments.

Sorry for rambling. As to your question of the specific Biden Administration policies causing high food prices to American consumers. Lets us begin at the beginning. The Biden American Rescue Plan. Only a brain dead moron with no knowledge of how economies work would have done a $1.9 trillion stimulus bill. Joe Biden did this is in March 2021. The economy already had too much cash sloshing around because of the Trump Covid stimulus actions.

The economy was coming back when Joe Biden took office. Demand was returning faster than supply chains could accommodate. Cash needed to be siphoned out of the economy, but your idiot threw almost $ 2 Trillion more into it. Talk about putting out a fire with a gasoline can. Joe and his experts were ' surprised ' how high and how sticky inflation became.

Okay that was inflation in general. Food inflation in particular. I can argue that not preventing the Russo-Ukraine War by showing how weak and incompetent he was in Afghanistan, olde Joe took a lot of grain off of the world market. Disruptions of Ukrainian and also Russian grain from the global markets sent over all world food prices up. You might argue that Putin, not Biden caused that. I disagree.

Now lets us talk of American food production. What Biden policies affected that ? Lets us start with Joe's attack on fossil fuels. They are essential for American agriculture in two main ways. First fertilizer. Fertilizers have gone up a lot in price. Nitrogen fertilizer is made mostly from natural gas. So the increase in price of fertilizer under Joe has increased the price of food.

Now lets us speak of oil, gasoline, and diesel fuel. Modern farms need a lot of fuel to run farm machinery. So along with the increase in the price of fertilizer, farmers must deal with increased fuel costs. Then the increase in fuel prices increases the cost of moving the food to market. Then you have increases of fuel at the food processing plants.

Lastly there is the increased cost of labor along the entire food supply chain. With your boy Joe giving out so much free money, for people to stay home, farmers and companies had to pay more to get people to show up for work.

It all starts on a farm. Right now, farmers have to pay more to get the seeds, fertilizers, animal feed and equipment they need to grow and process all the delicious foods we eat. And extra cost for farmers means extra cost for us, the consumers.

I agree the Biden policy to increase wages for workers had an impact on the increase in food prices. I bet American workers were happy to get a raise in pay as a result of Joe Biden's wage policies. The ability farmers had to pay low wages to migrant workers helped to keep the price of food down.

The Legislative Branch - congress - is responsible for proposing and passing legislation which the POTUS either signs into law or vetoes, and congress allocates whatever funding is deemed necessary; however, the responsibility for enforcing those laws rests with the Executive Branch - DHS, FBI, DEA, ICE, ATF, Border Patrol, etc.

I suggest you study our Constitution very carefully.

Families Crushed as Biden’s Total Inflation Breaks 17%
https://budget.house.gov/press-release/families-crushed-as-bidens-total-inflation-breaks-17

Is inflation up 17% since President Joe Biden took office?
Yes.
The Consumer Price Index was 307.051 in November 2023, 17% higher than the 261.582 it was in January 2021, figures from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics show.
Put another way, $100 in January 2021 has the same buying power as $117 in November 2023.
CPI is the government’s most widely used inflation measure. It includes food, clothing, shelter, transportation, energy, and medical care.

Has the price of groceries increased 20% since Joe Biden became president?
Yes.
The price of groceries increased more than 20% during President Joe Biden’s first three years in office and exceeded wage growth.
The Consumer Price Index for “food at home” rose from 252.7 on Jan. 1, 2021, to 305 in December 2023 — an increase of 20.7%. The index for average hourly wages increased 14.7% — from 29.9 to 34.3.
During the first three years of President Donald Trump’s administration, the grocery index rose from 237 in January 2017 to 243 in December 2019 — an increase of 2.5%.

The Biden administration likes to tout its success in getting inflation down to under 4 percent for seven consecutive months. But when he came into office, inflation was at 1.4 percent in January 2021, and had been under 3 percent for 109 consecutive months.

So even at the current levels, down from the highs of summer 2022, the Biden administration has not yet matched prior presidents’ inflation levels going back almost a decade, spanning Donald Trump’s entire presidency and the majority of President Barack Obama’s tenure.

In March 2021, when the American Rescue Plan was signed, the inflation rate was 2.6 percent. By May 2021, it was at 5 percent, starting a 23-month run at that rate or higher. The peak inflation run was a 12-month period from December 2021 through November 2022 of 7 percent or higher.

While the monthly, year-over-year rate has certainly dropped, the electorate sees this from a different perspective — by how much prices have gone up since Biden was inaugurated.
That is more important to the electorate, as prices have increased by 17.3 percent, what The Winston Group has termed the Presidential Inflation Rate (PIR).
In looking at the performance of the previous seven presidents at the same point in their terms, only President Jimmy Carter had a larger increase.
The rise in gas prices is a good example of why voters remain skeptical of Biden’s claims.
There is no question that gas prices have come down significantly since the summer of 2022, when cumulative gas prices had increased by a staggering 107.4 percent, measuring from Biden’s inauguration month.
But gas prices are still 35.1 percent higher than what they were in January 2021. That’s a tough sell.
So is telling consumers that food price inflation has dropped to below 3 percent when overall food prices have gone up 20.1 percent since Biden took office.
As with gas prices, only Carter had a higher increase in food prices at this point in his term.
Electricity costs have also risen significantly, increasing cumulatively by 25.1 percent. This is the largest price increase of any of the last seven presidents — and yet Biden decides this week to clamp down on natural gas.
Part of Biden’s economic message has centered on wage growth by focusing on short-term data rather than the longer-term impact. If you only look at the increases in hourly wages over the last eight months, wages have come in slightly ahead of inflation; but for the prior 25 months, wages trailed inflation.
Overall, since Biden’s inaugural, hourly wages have cumulatively increased 14.5 percent, while inflation has gone up 17.3 percent.
This means inflation has outpaced hourly wages by 2.8 percent so far in Biden’s term.
Looking at weekly wages, however, the picture gets worse.
Weekly wages have cumulatively increased 12.2 percent, leaving a 5.1 percent shortfall due to inflation.
A 5.1 percent reduction in purchasing power is a significant number.
So how do Biden’s Presidential Inflation Rate and his record on cumulative wages compare to former President Trump’s at the same point in their respective terms? As stated earlier, Biden’s PIR is at 17.3 percent, while Trump’s was at 5.8 percent in December 2019. Of the last seven presidents, only George W. Bush had a lower rate than Trump at 5.3 percent.

In terms of gas price inflation, Biden is at 35.1 percent and Trump is at 10.9 percent. Food inflation — Biden 20.1 percent and Trump 4.7 percent; and, finally, electricity — Biden 25.1 percent and Trump 2.2 percent.

Looking at Biden’s record on hourly wages, cumulative hourly wage increases trail his PIR by 2.8 percent. For Trump, hourly wages exceeded his Presidential Inflation Rate by 3.3 percent. So, in terms of hourly wages versus inflation, Trump did better by 6.1 percent.

In terms of weekly wages, Biden is at minus 5.1 percent versus inflation, while Trump was at plus 3 percent at the same point in his presidency. So, Trump did 8.1 percent better than Biden in keeping wages ahead of inflation.

Even a cursory look at these economic comparisons explains why the electorate disapproves of Biden’s handling of the economy and inflation by as much as 20-point margins.
Contrasting Biden’s record with virtually any other president, except Carter, only makes his economic record look worse.
Biden seems to have forgotten that voters have long memories.

Still posting made up images. Your boy Joe is in deep trouble. Nobody, but you believes he is physically and mentally capable of being President for another 5 years. Well the good news for you and Joe is, he is giving his State of the Union speech tonight. It will give him the opportunity to prove me and the rest of America wrong about his fitness to continue to be our President.

I am betting against feeble olde Joe. He will try and fail to run on his record. Afghanistan, the Mexican Border, Inflation, and his mental lapses during speeches are the negatives. The ability of the media to lie for him and cover up his failings are the positives. The media and the money of the Left Wing $ CaBillionaires dragged olde Joe over the finish line in 2020. Maybe they will do it again, but the corpse of his Candidacy will be much harder to drag this time around.
