With perfectly malignant timing, Biden decided to host a celebration for his Inflation Increase Act, which taxes and audits Americans to fund subsidies for Tesla drivers and other green energy special interests, even as the latest report shows food and shelter prices rising.
The consumer price index is at 8.3%. Food is up 0.8%.
And Biden is claiming victory.
Biden on Tuesday plans to tout progress on inflation, even though the government’s latest data reinforced concerns.
The yearly pace of inflation declined slightly to 8.3% in August, the Labor Department said. But the core Consumer Price Index, which is considered a better measure of long-term trends, showed a larger-than-expected increase, rising 6.3% compared to a year ago.
Biden is calling this a win. And it’s another loss for Americans.
Wait a minute, biden just said last week or the week before that inflation is at zero.
I’m waiting on someone to publicly ask biden what day it is. I’m really curious if he knows on any given day. My money is on no.
His cogent answer will probably be Asparagus.””
That’s actually a good question to ask possible dementia patients. They might not even know what year it is, or what decade.
I bet he doesn’t. And you can bet the farm if he was a Republican, msm reporters would be asking him every day..
They don’t know. That’s why Idiot Joe checks his watch so often. He doesn’t know what time it is or where he is and keeps forgetting that he already checked.
And he can’t read a watch or clock. It’s one of the signs of severe dementia.
TaliBiden and his LeftTwat terrorist regime are out to destroy the country – so he is proud of his crimes
Sleep Joe is just a puppet. The criminals and terrorists pulling his strings are hell bent on destroying America from within.
No offense but grocery prices are up by much more than .8 %. I don’t know the exact figure where I live but I’m paying double for most stuff than I did when we had a real President who was elected. The last time I went to the supermarket, my bill was over $300, and i didn’t buy very much stuff.
And am I the only one who’s noticed electrical bills are astronomical now? That electricity we’re all supposed to think will power everything but is barely available? Here in CA, the people dumb enough to own electric cars are supposed to not not drive them and the rest of us are supposed to go without electricity for six hours a day or some such shit. How the F are we supposed to watch TV or cook food or turn on the F’ing lights? And don’t get me started on air conditioning.
I HATE ALZHEIMER JOE AND HIS HANDLERS.
Yeah, the cost of electricity is a constant worry. What is going to happen in Winter, when the heaters need to go on?
Don’t live in Germany!
Lucky for me I don’t really need my AC but if I did, I’d be F’ed. San ScumJose is oddly balmy.
Good luck to people who live in Wisconsin or Minnesota. Or God help you, Alaska. On the coldest night of the year, all I need is a light sheet, not even a blanket. I’ve lived in Wisconsin, Michigan and Nebraska. (Strangely enough, Nebraska was the coldest.) Winters are no joke. They kill hundreds of times more Americans than Summer heat does.
