Ask uncle Donald if you can stay at one of his homes.

You're blaming a man less than 2 years into his presidency for what is happening to you? Let me ask, has anything in your life ever been your own fault or have you always been a "victim" and everyone is out to get you?

Make better decisions. You have no one to blame but yourself - and the fact you're using that term doesn't speak well of you. Are you a Trumper?? Then read a fucking book or two.

President Biden didn't create the last 100 years of capitalist insanity, in the larger scheme of things he's a bit player. Amazing how Repups wail about the horrendous destructive power of an American president when they have a personal crisis when at the same time they can't resist calling him "sleepy joe" "uncle joe" and etc. For some of us the Big Crisis started twenty years and more ago... you're just a late arrival.

Well that "communist" probably isn't losing their house, so jokes really on you now isn't it guy?

Edit: For those who don't know, OP's original response to this comment was to tell Rixter "they should shoot themself".

Inflation makes your debt smaller. Your employer could just pay you more.

The Fed runs the show, not Joe and not Donald. Inflation is a byproduct of loose money printing, especially during Covid, prior to Joe being electes

Jerome Powell is doing everything he can to get unemployment up and break the power of labor.

Trillions of dollars of spending programs don’t help. It’s a team effort. Fed, trump, and Biden have all contributed.

FALSE. Inflation spiked when Biden printed a fuck ton of money.

Found the idiot. Inflation occurred to due Trump forcing the Fed’s hand during the stock market Covid crash. The monetary policy started with Trump and did continue under Biden but both are at fault for being asleep at the wheel.

More complicated than either of you are saying. One thing didn’t “cause” inflation, however both of those factors contributed heavily.

If Biden hadn’t constrained oil and gas production; our inflation rate would have been much lower. He also wouldn’t have had to drain the strategic petroleum reserve which will be very harmful next year. He took an energy independent country and made us reliant on foreign frenemies. The stock market is punishing us for those (Joe Biden’s) policies.

WrongdoerClean7529 t1_iugs3cj wrote

That has nothing to do with the current woes of the stock market or general inflation. The fed is triggering a recession by using monetary policy called quantitative tightening. You’re spouting republican talking points. Read and expand your mind a little.

Bidens spending bills, and specifically stimulus money, decreased unemployment and increased inflation. It was necessary to some extent but he way overdid it. We should not have been back sub 4% unemployment in a year. A slower more natural recovery would have prevented the rampant inflation, and the fed would not need to raise rates as much.

What Biden thing forced you to take this job? Where are you paying $6 for eggs?

Consistent-Winter-67 t1_iugqcpz wrote

Did Biden personally assign you to a lower position? And where the hell are you paying $6 for a dozen eggs? Wholefoods? market Basket, hanafords, Shaws are all $3~ for a dozen. And what Biden 'thing' is affecting the price of eggs?

Beautiful_Repeat_718 t1_iuh939y wrote

I did spend almost $6 for a dozen eggs at Walmart 2 weeks ago. Then I started stopping at the house down the street with a 'Fresh Eggs' in front.

Emptyplates t1_iuhiobp wrote

The people with the fresh eggs signs are often charging between $4-6 a dozen now.

Solid_Information_66 t1_iuitebc wrote

Yeah, but you gotta figure of you're gonna spend over $5 for a carton of eggs, why not give it to the family down the street that's also struggling and not to a Mega Corporation or Conglomerate.

Emptyplates t1_iuj3u9r wrote

That's what I do. I don't buy eggs from anyone but the locals.

Before ppl start arguing in comments, just wanna say sucks you’re losing the house man. Where im from (normal middle/lower-middle class area) anyone who owned property before covid won the lottery, and everyone else is priced out (except for out of staters of course). I don’t truly understand why everything is expensive, it seems like so much stuff is happening in the world (saudis can change gas prices at the snap of a finger), but regardless, it sucks.
