"Numbers don't lie." The Biden economy is surging, so why aren't Americans feeling it?

Hasan gives the answer, which most of us already know, at 9:45-10:16 of the 1st video. Democrats have got to start blowing our own horns, every day, repeatedly!

1. Because...

For folks that are still just making their bills… those who are not investing… the only thing they are thinking about are the out of control food prices.

If food prices come down… people will give Joe credit and not until… JMHO.

[Lonestarblue]

2. And food prices won't come down because climate warming and draught are constantly

causing problems. Plus, having raised prices and gotten bigger profits, big food manufacturers aren’t planning to lower prices to reflect cost decreases because they don’t have to with a few big manufacturers controlling much of the market. If anything, the executives and big shareholders of corporations are likely to insist on price increases shortly before the next election to hurt Biden’s chances. They prefer the Republican policies of tax cuts followed by more tax cuts. Greed is good according to those who already have too much.

7. It's a problem.

4. High Food prices aren't Joes's Fault ...

Which goes to show you how uninformed and quite frankly how DUMB many people still are about corporate greed. I see where you now have MAGGOTS actually blaming Pres. Biden for tRump's worsening criminality, and they're also giving what Hunter Biden did the same weight as what tRaitor tRump did in trying to steal an election with Russia's help again in 2020, start a coup on Jan. 6th, turn this country into Russia and still lying like a raving lunatic 2 years later about the 2020 GE being stolen from him, so he HAS to make a case for running for the presidency again so he can win then finish destroying civilization once and for all. You can't make this shit up.

6. You are 💯 correct.

However… they DO blame Biden.
People ask why he does not get more credit for the improving economy. This is why.
Yes… it’s uninformed. These are uninformed voters.

3. I can give several reasons, I retired in 2010 with a defined benefit pension, since then I

have lost over $500 per month in buying power. Thanks to the SS COLA it has pretty much kept up. In the last
5 years real-estate has more than doubled locally. I bought a new car 3 years ago the same vehicle is about 20%
higher now. Tuesday morning gas was $3.03, two hours later I figured I would fill up the car it was $3.53 then. A ribeye steak
$18 a pound. Other than commodities like gas hard items will never go down. Vehicle prices have exploded and now they
want us to get EVs that are not practical yet for most people and they cost even more. A few years ago they changed water heater
standards that doubled their price. Yesterday I hear they are chaging that rule again with the price no doubt doubling again.
I don't know how young people are supposed to survive. To get ahead they go to college and unless their parents have money they
are burdened with a debt they will never pay off. How do you start a family if a house costs $250,000, a car is $50000 and you owe
$100000 in student loans? You know it would be nice to be twenty again but no thanks I wouldn't want to be in their shoes today.

a company store. People worked 6 days a week 12 hours a day and when they got their pay they
paid their rent to the company and spent the rest at the company store. It is gradually becoming
that way again, all your money ends up paying off your debts to corporate America. Few of these
kids today will ever be able to retire.

5. Just wait,

Russia and Saudi Arabia have just cut oil production.

9. My theory:

Unrealistic expectations that with magical thinking, Joe Biden should be able to DECREASE the price of necessities, e.g., groceries, gas, rent, interest on mortgages, loans, etc.

Just the fact that prices aren't increasing is insufficient for a lot of American consumers. Their paychecks haven't risen to meet the increase of prices and they blame that too on Biden. And worse, they believe that a return of TFG will give them what they want, and that's nearly impossible.

11. Short of a major depression most prices never go down. nt

13. Because food ,, prescription drug, rent ,

gas, insurance, are still ridiculously expensive. It's not President Biden's fault but more needs to be done to help those other than Wall street and corporations.
