As a matter of analysis it’s true that voters are more concerned w/ acute cost-of-living issues than abstract-ish concerns about the breakdown of democratic institutions. But I still find it strange when people celebrate that fact because it helps their preferred political party.
Democrats deny it's a problem at all. The Democrats on this forum seem to believe anyone who has a problem with $6 milk and $15 ground beef is just poor and has made bad life decisions.
Republicans acknowledge that the problem is real and point out that the problem was self inflicted.
If Biden and the Democrats got their way inflation would be much much worse. The only reason Democrats haven't printed and spent TRILLIONS more than they already have is Joe Manchin and Kristen Sinema.
Sorry for your loses. You made some very bad investments.
Cryptocurrency? We warned you.
No crypto, and my investments have done better than the market. My real estate is likely down a little. Most of my losses come from the 13% increase in inflation since Biden took office. Take your net worth today and multiply it by 87% and compare it with where you were 21 months ago.
Not every flower can say love, but a rose can. Not every plant survives a thirst, but a cactus can. Not every drooling moron can run for office, but look at you go, little buddy! I don't care if you lick windows or make out with farm animals!!! I love watching you crayon eating lefties run for office *grabs popcorn*.
Kamala Harris: "The significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. So when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time.”
Fetterman opens the debate: "Hi. Good night, everybody."
Biden: "The right that I pushed hard and I finally got changed to marry couples in the privacy of their bedroom."
Like my personal life, career, free time, mental health, finances, sense of belonging among friends/family/community, purpose in life, excitement for the new day, etc. are ALL better than two years ago (even my LRC trolling is mostly playing with the few remaining anti-vax trolls)...
Most of this isn't the government's doing, but if flowrunner wants to thank them for it? sure? I'll vote the party line?

The GOP is clearly celebrating. They were worried and upset when gas prices were going down. They (not even secretly) cheer when prices rise.
Your second point is nonsense. Inflation is a world-wide issue. Many countries have it worse. Making stupid instagram and twitter memes isn't "acknowledging the problem". it's trying to score political points. Like the GOP candidate for Gov in my state. She has been blaming the Dem Gov for high gas prices. However, every red state nearby has high gas prices. It's almost like there are other factors. Only a fool think it is solely the dems fault.....So I ask you. Are you a fool or a liar???
Additionally, I would argue the pre-pandemic pricing relied on a cheap unsustainable labor market that doesn't exist.

Oz- Medical decisions should be between a woman, her doctor and local politicians.
Hey Rojo (Wejo too) have you noticed that almost without fail, your posts are downvoted massively? In the newfangled world we call that getting ratioed, and YOU get ratioed more than anybody else, on your own site.
You may not care. Maybe you're the Ted Cruz and Marjorie Green of the online running scene, where ANY attention is good attention, even if people hate you.
If being disliked brings clicks you're cool with that eh? What a great way to go through life.

Genuis dude.
Oz's argument is that abortion laws should reside at the state level, not federal level. Throughout history, people have held different beliefs about when it is and isn't acceptable to terminate a human life. Some cultures believe that life starts at conception, while others would regularly perform human sacrifice or infanticide. Having the control over abortion rights reside at the state level rather than at the federal level is a reasonable solution to this age-old conundrum. If you believe that there should be no restrictions on abortion, then you are free to live in a state that has laws that reflect those values. If your belief is that abortion should be limited to rape, incest and when the life of the mother is at stake, then you are free to live in a state with laws that reflects those values.
