The spin master is trying but the American people aren't buying it. Just look at the polls. But hey the mid terms are coming and the Democrats have to try something.🫢

I hope it was talked about how the Oil Industry took it on the chin during Covid and lost (some) money. Today they are paying shareholders and themselves in a big way! They are keeping oil production down for that reason. So, the American consumer, is getting shellacked!

Gas price in Canada US$7 (CAD$8.6) while income here is lower than the US, so, $7 here is more than double what you have in the US. In the UK the price is US$8.2

Inflation is caused by rampant profiteering. Energy prices are a multiplier. Don’t you just love Capitalism👏

If the economy was doing extremely well, we would not have all these homeless people who can’t afford rent on their salaries. It’s very Great Depression 2.0 until Congress ends the filibuster; reverses 45’s fascist econ policies.
