You are right about one thing. Both former president Trump and current President Biden injected money into the system which contributed to inflation. Presenting "would haves" to support your argument that former president Trump "might have" done a better job is not a position subject to debate. Actual facts are needed.


Context, context, context context. What am I talking about ? You know, you claim to be an investor, or am I mistaken ? Could I be ? As an investor I assume you know that timing is important.

Example, you or I could have put our vast fortunes into real estate or the American Stock Market in 2007. Events would have proven us to be i***ts. Now if you or I had only held off until March of 2009 and did the exact same thing. Posterity would have proclaimed us financial geniuses.

To get back to how this relates to what Trump and Biden did. When Trump did his stimulus the nation was still in the throes of the C***d shutdowns. Everyone was afraid to spend, demand had collapsed. Giving average people extra pocket money encouraged them to leave their homes and spend money. This, along with reopening venues worked. The economy was reopening and people gained confidence to go out and retake their lives.

Then your boy Joe was elected. During that lag between November and January, the economy was roaring back. There was already plenty of money in everyone's pockets from Trump's stimulus and from the savings of those who had kept working during the p******c, and had not been able to spend freely. The problem was that supply of all goods and services could not be ramped up as fast as demand came back. Many workers had become comfortable with sitting on their fat asses and getting paid for it. Businesses had to pay up big to get those slackers out of their houses. There also was a bidding war for the good workers who had kept working through C***d. Workers could easily change jobs to seek the highest pay.

So finally Joe Biden takes office. He decides to play Santa Claus and throw even more money into an economy that was already bidding up the prices of everything. You only do that if you need more demand. Demand was fine. Throwing more money into the economy in March of 2021 was i***tically inflationary.

Timing, timing, timing, timing.

NY Prosecutor's case against Donald J. Trump is a violation of the NY State Constitution. This case has numerous grounds to be over turned. Trump should sue for malicious prosecution and seek $ 10 Billion. He also should sue for interference of a Federal E******n. He is being prosecuted solely because Joe Biden is likely to lose to Trump in the P**********l e******n.

" Once one clears away the e******n-theft and federal-law underbrush, Trump is actually charged not with a conspiracy but with 34 substantive felony violations of a New York statute that makes it a crime to falsify business records with the fraudulent intent to conceal “another crime.”

" What other crime? The penal statute in question doesn’t say. That’s a fatal problem because New York State’s constitution mandates that a statute must spell out any statutory terms it is incorporating. Under Article III, §16, of the state constitution, incorporation by reference is not permitted. "

Republicans like to point to President Biden's American Rescue Plan as his greatest blunder. MAGA folks claim President Biden caused the principal source of inflation in America. Most economists agree the Rescue Plan helped fuel inflation, along with corporate profiteering, supply chain woes, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, along with other sources.

Democrats believe the benefits of the Plan far outweigh the small contribution it made to inflation. Enacted during a severe public health and economic crisis, the American Rescue Plan has made a difference in the lives of millions of Americans – expanding access to C****-** v*****es and testing, providing economic relief that has kept millions of children out of poverty, preventing evictions and foreclosures, and helping small businesses keep their doors open. One analysis found that the law resulted in 4 million more jobs and nearly doubled GDP growth – and that without it, the United States would have come close to a double-digit recession in spring 2021.

According to a Forbes discussion, here is what Joe did with gas and oil. You can read it to help expand your understanding of inflation.

Many people attributed the entire price rise to President Biden, but in reality it began before Biden took office. Further, it was neither primarily President Trump nor President Biden’s fault — and these price surges were taking place all over the world.

To be clear, the stimulus money that both presidents approved had some impact. When people have more money, they spend it. Demand for goods rises, driving inflation. Stimulus money played a minor part in the gasoline price rise, but it was primarily a function of the oil price surge due to the imbalance brought on in the aftermath of the C****-** demand plunge.

" Democrats believe the benefits of the Plan far outweigh the small contribution it made to inflation. "

I love the way your mind works. " Democrats believe " I guess that allows you to disassociate from it. " far outweigh the small contribution it made to inflation. " That is almost a brilliant deflection and excuse. Almost brilliant.

I told you previously, when your boy Joe came into office there was already plenty of money injected into the system from the Trump C***d stimulus. The economy was opening up, demand was coming back. The very very last thing the economy needed was more stimulus, and more incentives for slackers to stay home from work.

But since this conflicts with your preconceived notion that Joe Biden could not possibly have done anything wrong, your mind is closed to the possibility that I am right.

" primarily a function of the oil price surge due to the imbalance brought on in the aftermath of the C****-** demand plunge. "

You got that part right. During the C***d lockdowns worldwide demand for diesel and gasoline and oil collapsed. I do not think that you and your oil hating L*****t compadres can fully grasp the ramifications of that. The oil industry runs on cash more than most other businesses. With the collapse of demand and price, oil and refinery operations shrunk tremendously.

I know you L*****ts were over joyed, but the downside effects to the rest of us were severe. When your boy Joe was awaiting becoming President, between being elected and taking office, demand for oil, gasoline, and diesel came roaring back. Well you can't simply switch refineries, oil fields, and pipelines back on. Perhaps if the industry had not shrunk back so badly, and there had been attempts to deal with this during the C***d shutdowns.

Trump had tried to fill up the strategic oil reserve. This would have resulted in two very positive conditions. First the reserve would have been filled up extremely cheaply because oil was dirt cheap. The more important result would have been keeping the oil industry from shrinking as much, which would have made ramping it back up easier when C***d abated.

Naturally Chucky Schumer and the rest of the scum bag Democrats blocked all of this. I know you are profoundly unaware of all of this.

I do thank you for not pulling the football away, and giving me a thoughtful answer.

I vaguely remember this one with Marty Feldman but they think they had it bad? We had to sleep a family of four in a shoebox floating on the river and one of us had to bail out the water so they stayed up two days. Lmao. Great laugh and after checking out the link, I do remember this. Funny stuff. Or, "It was only a flesh wound.." Thanks for the laugh. Came in handy today. Enjoy, stay well!


That sketch is written and performed so well. I have seen Monty Python do it later and it is just not as good. The way they just keep topping one another in their childhood horror stories is great. Old men really do that. I like to mess with my kids when they complain about how badly my wife and I did raising them.

I tell them that the six of us they know about are the strong ones who survived my parents mis raising of us. I let them know there were others who did not survive. They were the weak ones that we ate during the lean times. My kids if they had been part of my litter mates would have been eaten, because they are weak.

Exactly what did President Biden do to cause inflation? Is there any particular Republican proposal to fix Social Security that you think is better than the proposal submitted by the Biden administration? Talking about digging your head in the sand is not much of an attack and not specific enough to discuss.


How did Biden cause inflation ? Geez ole willockers. I have only posted that information on OPP about a gozzzzzillion times. Well dozens anyway. I have gone into excruciating detail and been completely ignored by YOU and every other Biden apologist on OPP.

The same thing on Social Security. " not specific enough " That is laughable. Perhaps not on this thread, but on many other threads I have laid out painful specifics. None of you good folks on the Left has bothered to refute what I have posted.

I don't mind you disagreeing with me, but either ignoring me or giving a mindless universal condemnation of what I said, without refuting the specifics is a waste of my time. But like Charlie Brown who always has Lucy pull away the football when he tries to kick it, I think that maybe this time, you won't pull the football away. You will actually respond to what I post, in detail.

The most obvious and easily explainable is the American Rescue Plan. In March 2021 Democrats passed this stimulus legislation. There was already too much liquidity in the American economy left over from the Trump Administration. Biden should have been sucking money out of the economy. Instead he decided to pour gasoline on the inflation fire.

Part of this stimulus was increased unemployment which created incentives for workers to stay home, instead of going to work and producing goods and services. Very very inflationary.

I normally go into far more detail, but I do not want to overwhelm you. But lets us speak about what Joe did with oil and gas. He all but declared war on American hydrocarbons. No, he did declare war on American energy. Raising the price of gasoline and diesel was inflationary because most goods in America are moved by petroleum powered vehicles.

So will you refute my details, or will you pull the football ? The ball is in your half of the field.

Case against Trump or Trump stealing the 2016 e******n vs Bill Clinton stealing the 1992 e******n. Too bad Republicans did not have an Alvin Bragg to wage Lawfare against Bill. Not that I am changing the subject or calling you out on your hypocrisy. No I would never do that.

" The Manhattan DA has a meaningless business-records misdemeanor wrapped within a theory about an alleged Trump conspiracy to defraud the v**ers by denying them disparaging information before the e******n and obscuring, after the fact, the payments that were used to do so.

" Bragg is accusing Trump, in effect, of stealing the e******n. "

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


" If this is the standard by which we judge e******ns, we need to go back and conclude that Bill Clinton wasn’t elected legitimately in 1992, either. The Arkansas governor’s political operation was, in part, an elaborate conspiracy to keep women who alleged to have had affairs with Clinton quiet. Hillary Clinton was an active participant in the schemes. And so, by Bragg’s logic, this Democratic power couple — dominant in the party for a decade or more and still honored today — comprises e******n thieves. "

Republicans’ budget proposal for fixing Social Security calls for “modest adjustments” to the retirement age to reflect longer life expectancies, though it did not specify how high the age could go up. The plan also calls for reducing full retirement age benefits for high-income earners, while also limiting and phasing out “auxiliary benefits” for those beneficiaries’ spouses and dependents. The budget did not specify the income thresholds to which those changes would apply..

I agree with "modest adjustments" to the retirement age depending on the specifics. Low-income earners should not be harmed by the adjustments. Reducing benefits for high-income earners is a good idea.

I have no interest in arguing about the causes and effects of inflation on world economies. I will leave that topic to the experts who have actually studied the subject. Here is one expert opinion. "An increase in government spending is one of the factors that economists say can drive inflation. Other factors include interest rates, monetary policy, supply chain disruptions and fluctuations in demand for goods and services. Inflation can be an important consideration for investing, saving and borrowing."

During the Biden Administration, stock market investors experienced some solid wealth building. I am one of them.

Neither do I, except that you and your cohorts keep using that as a theme to distract from what I do want to talk about, which is Biden caused inflation.

Biden caused inflation is a valid target of discussion. You defend Biden and I am attacking him, as that is what this debate is about. You are are a lost cause on Social Security. You will never dig your head out of the sand. Even when my predictions come true, you will not remember this talk.

There were a couple of other lesser known British shows on late night TV in the mid 1970s. I can't remember their names. I worked swing shifts back then, and would watch. I got hooked on them. Sometimes the Monty Python players teamed up with other folks and did stuff. Did you ever see the Yorkshire Men sketch ? Marty Feldman from Young Frankenstein was in this one.
