Just like the sun makes the temperature go up

But more taxes/legislation/regulation will lower prices and change the climate

We are in triple crown world

Not that this would work, but talk about too little too late. Where was this relief three years ago?

Translation:

I have no confidence in any effort by democrats to help families. In fact the policies of the democrats (and their Hollywood pals) over the last 50+ years were designed to do one thing - kick God out of the culture and Main Street and destroy the traditional family. Last time I checked less than 13% of families could be categorized as traditional (male father works, female mother cares for the children). Now what we have is a hookup culture where people simply sleep around. The whole abortion debate swirls around promiscuous couples who insist on engaging in risky behavior then if they accidentally get pregnant they want access to an abortion and they want the taxpayer to pay for it. Remember America has aborted 65+ million babies and future potential workers. What a bloody mess…..and I do mean bloody.

How is point 3) lowering grocery prices? It actually does the exact opposite.

I see nothing there that helps middle class America. McDonalds and Taco Bell are doing more than the Feds to help with their $5-7 Meals. Let that sink in 4-5 fast food companies care more about you than your government.

More pandering for votes while really making any progress on lowering costs. Democrats way. None of the geniuses could ever run a corporation yet here they are leading the government

The margins on groceries are extremely low. I can promise you Wal-Mart isn't gouging anybody on groceries. Their whole model is volume based and bringing in customers with lower pricing than the competitor. The exact reason why "Mom & Pop" stores have been shut down where ever a Walmart is nearby.


Bingo. Had a typical leftist on FB (yes I know) bleating about how WM was making billions and “windfall profits tax” etc. I found their April ‘24 net profit margin- 3.16%. And that was up from 1.2% the previous April.


Running my own business, there is no way I’m going to work to make 3 cents on the dollar. Hell, if I don’t make 30 cents on the dollar I’m strongly considering passing on the project.

You might feel ashamed to be on disability but at least you have a legit medical event as the root cause. I know several people (the mother of my nephew among them) either on or trying to get on 100% disability for things like chronic fatigue syndrome or mental issues. That chaos my arse; most of them are just lazy and want something for nothing. They doctor shop for just such a purpose.

Sounds just like socialism. What happened to free economics, supply/demand.

The Democrats scream private businesses when they opposed govt interference in social media so why do they think govt should tell private business what prices they should sell product for in their private businesses??

Increase the deficit and tell private companies not to make money. Sounds about as Democrat as you can get.


While at the same time allowing people to steal up to $950 a day from your store
