Consumer Price Index Up 7% From Last Year, The Largest Spike Since 1982

Nah, you let richer people pay the bulk and just donate the bare minimum to the government so you can feel better about yourself.

I don't donate shit. I get taxed. Everyone should be taxed.

Did you hear a guy like Jim Harbaugh or Elan Musk pays 6% on the money they make? Much lower than you or I. It's how they get paid. I can't remember all the details but what they do is take a loan out against their stock. That's how they live. Then they pay the loan back at 6%. What percent do you pay on the money you make? Probably more than 6%.

It's funny how Conservatives do everything they can to stop government from interfering in the economy, yet they blame government (when the Dems are in power) for every economic downturn.

Which is it Cons?

Should the government have the power to manage the economy, and therefore be responsible for it?

Or should the government not be allowed to intervene in the economy, in which case the government is NOT responsible for the state of the economy?

Government is the referee. Without refs and rules, we have chaos.

Every county has a government. Every country should have a government. And so in every country, the government is always the referee. Some countries, the government works for the corporations and the rich and they ignore the masses. A liberal progressive Democratic Democracy does not do that.

We're very aware of 'Inflation inequality', which is why we promote increases in the minimum wage, and reducing wealth inequality.

So the answer to Biden's out of control inflation it to raise the minimum wage?

You really should just stop posting, Dumbass.

Your delusions do not need to be addressed in any way.

Yea because increasing min wage caused inflation. I say we cut middle class taxes and not only roll back the Trump tax breaks but also the Bush and Reagan tax breaks.

Our bridges are falling apart (among other things), and its Ronald Reagan's fault. A few hours before the bridge collapsed in Minnesota, a news release landed (among hundreds) in my email inbox. It was from the right-wing "Heartland Institute" and a Minnesota conservative group calling itself...

Why is the rate more important to you than the amount? Both fund government far more than you do, regardless of the rate. Rate envy is simply success envy, nothing more.

Also, don't be a lazy fuck, respond to posts individually.

Posting and then claiming "no one will challenge me" in a 10 minute span is bush league.

And your binary question is as usual argumentum ad absurdum.

So you have no explanation for your hypocrisy. I understand.

When the government REFUSES to discuss ANY way to treat COVID other than masks and experimantal gene therapy, you know they are lying to you.

Wake the fuck up.

apparently states like Cali and Washington that raised their min wage to $15/hour aren't getting hit by inflation....

Reagan tax cuts? Is the top rate 28% right now, Dumbass? All 3 of those tax cuts were across the board, so "rolling them back" would raise taxes on working folks.

Your link is from 2007, and still about 15 years too late.

You should stop posting too.

What hypocrisy? You have two bullshit conditions and then probably wanked off to the lack of responses.

All of 10 minutes, well to be fair you only probably lasted 2.

Raising the incomes of workers across the board while severely taxing the wealthy would, in the long, run stop inflation.

If no one can pay outrageous prices, then businesses can not charge outrageous prices.

Of course it does, and usually in the industries that can handle it the least. especially large hikes.

So someone worth $15 an hour on the old scale now sees someone who used to be working for $8 an hour now earning $15. How do you think they are going to react?

Good god, a toddler understands economics better than you. I knew you were stupid, but now you are SHE WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED stupid.

So you continue to refuse to answer the question - or give a more detailed discussion of your position on government intervening in economics and the level of government's responsibility related to the level of intervention.

I understand. You can not defend your hypocrisy.

Government is supposed to be the referee, not the head coach. That simple enough for you to understand?

Yes, I understand. You have nothing intelligent to say, so you resort to insults.

Do you or that idiot Nostra have any idea of what happens to the law of supply and demand when there is extreme wealth inequality?

The Law of Supply and Demand goes to shit. (like your brains)

You shoulda taken my advice, Dipshit.

But by acting as 'referee' the government must intervene in the economy and be responsible?

Or is it only to make laws and prosecute violators, but not be responsible?

Don't be a hypocritical idiot. Ths economy you voted for was the result of your POS Democrats interfering in the economy. Instead of leaving businesses and industries to run their businesses and industries like they want to, those fucking idiot Democrats just had to fuck with everything. It started on day one, when Biden shut down the Keystone XL pipeline. Then came the regulations, taxes, mandates, wasteful spending. and everything else they could do to bring this economy to a screeching halt.

You Democrats can't manage shit, because that's what everything you touch turns into: Shit. So don't try to pawn that shit off on Republicans, because you own it.

Wealth inequality happens in every society, ironically more pronounced in Communist ones and socialists ones, because there the same people control the government AND the economy.

bitching about some people being more well off than others is like complaining its sunny during the day.
