I’m going on 83 and this is the worst president we ever had
Actually 150 presidential scholars said Trump was the worst president. Von Shitzenpants
Biden is the most accomplished and productive President since LBJ. But in truth it's just the same old story. Republican Presidents leave the country broken and Democrat Presidents fix it. I know people have short term memory loss but try to think back just a few years ago to the year 2020. More than a MILLION Americans died on Trump's watch. More Americans than in all the wars we have ever fought. The economy had cratered, the stock market crashed, and unemployment soared. Supply chains were broken and on top of the upside down tariffs Trump imposed on everything from Agriculture to Technology, Trump ignited the inflation we have all had to live with. The only reason inflation rates came in low for 2020 was because we were ready to fall into a depression. Biden had to inherit all that in addition to inheriting a 3.1 trillion dollar budget deficit from fiscal 2020 and another 2.8 trillion for fiscal year 2021 passed in 2020. Had it not been for the Fed putting the pedal to the metal we would have been in a greater depression than Bush left for Obama. Same old story Republicans leave the country broken and Democrats wind up fixing it. You could go back to Herbert Hoover it's always the same.
Somewhere Jimmy Carter is thanking you!
@@marshallheadchief8744Jimmy is thanking Joe
I'm 60 and in total agreement
16% of our children living in poverty, record number of citizens living paycheck to paycheck, record credit card debt, record number of citizens needing two jobs, record inflation
Wait I thought that was the sign of the booming economy. I can't believe how little people understand of basic Economics
@@wesjimez2941 It's only going to get worse
@@TonydaGM I agree. Remember these low paying part time retail jobs count as fully employed.
Bidenomics in action!
Biden said: Americans have the money to spend!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Our economy struggling with uncertainties, housing issues, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.
With the US dollar losing value to inflation and other currencies gaining traction, uncertainty looms. Yet, many still trust in the Dollar's perceived safety. Worried about my $420,000 retirement savings losing value, I seek alternative security for my money.
I don't have enough time for investment analysis because of my busy work. My portfolio has been managed by a fiduciary for seven years; they have adjusted to market conditions to help me navigate successfully and make wise decisions. Think about a comparable strategy.
this is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation
Monica Shawn Marti is the licensed coach I use. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I looked up her name online and found her page. I emailed and made an appointment to talk with her. Thanks for the tip
I guess we needed a Biden to show us how bad things can be and a Trump to show us the good.
I agree, but the destruction he is doing to this Country will take a longer time to turn around than just 4 years of Trump.
What I don’t understand is that they say under Biden it’s up some 20%. But I see so many things that are up 50% or more.
I keep track of the real numbers and it's been 3% inflation PER MONTH!
So it's actually about 120% during Biden's presidency.
What hasn't doubled in price?
We you have evil, greedy, selfish leader's that care nothing about the poor hardworking taxpayers. Big government wasteful spending and this invasion by illegal immigrants is totally destroying our lives.
We see much higher prices as compared to government statistics on inflation because government calculates inflation excluding things that most consumers buy daily like food and energy.
Don’t forget food product is getting smaller and smaller for same price
oh grasshopper - you have good vision
😅
I don't understand how people say inflation is 3-4-5%..... most things are double
Things people actually need doubled
Not only have many things doubled, but what you get has shrunk… so actually more than doubled. I too keep hearing ridiculous inflation numbers like 5% or 9% but my eyeballs can’t roll out of their sockets anymore…
They don't calculate inflation the way they used to. The two most inflationary commodities energy/fuel and groceries are not even counted in their numbers. It's absurd!
Start growing a inflation garden for food
Because the rate of inflation and what businesses charge are two different things. Lets say an ice coffee from dunkin doughnuts is $5 and inflation actually does come down, doesn’t mean they will lower the coffee price to match inflation
20% ???? Try 100%. Nearly ALL goods at the grocery store doubled.
YES....
Yup. My family grocery bill has doubled since 2019. Used to fill up the grocery cart for $200 in 2019. Now it’s $400+. My eyes have already rolled out of their sockets every time I hear news pundits use numbers like 9, 19, or 29% food inflation numbers…
naw, more like 70. where y shopping where u payin 300$?
or more!
You Trump cult zombies are the dumbest beasts on earth!!!!
the U.S. has a 6% inflation rate, which is the eighth lowest among the G20's countries!
China had the lowest inflation rate at 0.1 percent in March 2024!
How's that Capitalism working for ya? 😂
STOP WATCHING FOX! STOP LISTENING TO THE BLOATED ORANGE RAPIST!!
The green fantasy deal is killing us.
The green new deal is great for China !
Yea, inflation is up. In other words...the economy is too strong.
Democrats are to blame. And democrat voters.
FJB
11/5/2024!!!!! Vote s___ President Biden OUT!!!!!!
I wish smart guys like Larry or Art would stop using the CPI to calculate inflation. CPI was intentionally created to UNDERSTATE inflation.
These guys have buku investments. They dont want to decrease consumer confidence so the numbers are nebulous when they speak of now. Few months later they adjust this periods numbers up/down.
@@jeffreymyers323so it goes back to my dad's old saying that figures don't lie but liars sure do figure?
Yes. The items that the government chose to include in the basket of goods are all low-inflation ones. Inflation has been much higher than the government admits.
We want mandates on age limits in Congress and for the presidential seat.
the young, 60 and under, outnumber the over 60 age bracket, we still have a Problem...age is not the answer.
The voters are THE problem....my opinion. thanks.
And only 20% can be attorneys
All we need is for voters to use common sense instead of party loyalty.
I think we need mandated cognitive testing ! reported to the american people before debates
I don't even care about age limits, it's up to the voters. I'd rather see that effort get pushed for term limits.
Larry ur wrong on inflation.
Many prices have doubled. We have on other stuff at 40 - 60 % since Brandon started.
That's because the calculations for inflation do not include the prices of food and fuel.
We know, Art. We live it every day. FJB!!!
The Cares Act, the Infrastructure Bill; the Inflation Reduction Bill; the Chips Act....hmmmmm
Have all done the opposite of what we were told they would do
Extremely informative FACTUAL economic analysis. Thank You!
Yep, the economy is RED HOT, with the market hitting record highs, which is how we get inflation. Fed just might raise rates again to help cool this booming economy down!!
Joes inflation numbers are horror show ⚰️⚰️⚰️🎟️

Liberals are happy. As long as Biden says "green" alot, he has their vote.
And what they're not taking into account is that by taking fuel production away from us you're taking away the most green processes in the world.
Always like Larry's take. Thanks for sharing!
Want people to Work tell employers to Stop being mean and Nasty to older workers
Trump !
What I don't understand is if the guy in the black suit said we're paying 20% more for essentials then why isn't the inflation rate 20%
Mike, they were talking about the cumulative inflation rate which is adding all years of annual inflation increases during the respective president's terms together. Trump's was 7.7 percent overall from Jan 2017 to Jan 2021.
Biden's is 19.9% from Jan 2021 to Q1-2024.
These guys always make it easy for us regular folks to understand.
Trump in 2024 !!! Restore sanity in the USA !!!
But will these cpi inflation numbers help the SSI beneficiaries??? No they will fudge the numbers out like every year
Every year they tell us of sky high inflation until .....zUNTIL third quarter they then compare day to day not month to month
Agree 100%
You can blame both parties party’s for that.

Need to get rid of government jobs ; defund beaurocracy ; move representitives to thier states
in 3 years they added over 50% to the overall amount of usd that exists . inflation has barely started folks. All it is
Remember the late 70s early 80s these years took less time to call them " the great recession" we have had the common definition over 9 months but still not calling this recession
That figure is nothing when based on whole US economic assets.
What is the inflation rate using the 1970 formula? Gotta be way, way higher!

It seems everything in the supermarket is up at least 50 percent.

Valiant effort Neil thanks for calling him. KUDOS 👍🏼👍🏼
Keep in mind the CPI was heavily doctored eg hedonic adjustments so as to under report the real inflation rate by 7 full percentage points per year since 1990
What about the market valuation (~$51 trillion) compared to GDP ($26 to $27 trillion)? That ratio is well above baseline, suggesting a bubble.
Right now, all of Warren Buffet's money is in short term treasury bonds, and he's said he'd put it there even if the yield was as low as 1%.
He's not making much profit, but he isn't risking losing a bunch of money if the bubble pops rather than gently deflates. Short term bonds make him agile. He's poised to buy the dip on short notice once he identifies the likely survivors, and if a Wall Street disaster sends interest rates soaring, he can roll his bonds over within a couple months to cash in on those higher rates.
I'm not saying this is going to happen. I'm just saying Buffett appears to think it will.
Only thing biden has done for me my Gold and Silver have been a Great asset, FJB!
Patterson and Thompson will pay !!!!
Please stop paying high ask prices of every business in your consumer habits. Ban on fast food, ban on beef, chicken. Maybe a tax revolt based on the politician reckless spending of the tax receipts. Go into a recession, pull back.
🇺🇸 TRUMP 2024 🇺🇸
Like any good analysis following a corrupt leader, he/she would say, “What do you want the number to be?”.
Right. Is his Trump tower apartment 10000 sq feet or 30000? Trump is king of lies. Von Shitzenpants
Remember, even while the inflation rate may be coming down...the product prices for the consumers are not.
Hey look, someone is giving a TV interview. Let’s talk loudly next to them about something unimportant.
This Congress and those after, for many years, need to spend our money more carefully.
High taxes=No Freedom.
And "in real terms" is all that ever matters
20% ??
WTF
these people clearly don’t get out enough! I’m seeing a lot of the things that I bought regularly up 50% or more!!
I pay cash that Leeds to badges getting fired and sent to prison.
If inflation rate is over 10%, FED chairman should raise interest rate to 10%
11%
The public is stupid!
There's going to be some interesting 'behind the scenes' books that come out after the Biden administration has run its course.

The People: We are paying 50% more for almost everything!
Emperor Joe: Yeah, but when you're late paying your credit card I've saved you $35!
Inflation was 3.4% in April (year-over-year). Unemployment has been below 4% for years. Housing prices have to come down, so what. That will be good for buyers.
Gee, you got paid how much to figure that out?

Bitcoin is on its way to down, getting closer to hitting new high prices, showing that it's loosing more value and could go even higher than we've seen before. This could mean great things for people looking to invest, suggesting now might be a good time to get involved before it jumps even higher. It's an exciting moment that could change the game in general...managed to grow a nest egg of around 2.1Blitcoin to a decent 11.4Biitcoin. At the heart of this evolution is mrs Beley Haener, whose deep understanding of both cryptocurrency and traditional trading has been instrumental. Her holistic approach to investment and commitment to staying abreast of market trends make her an invaluable ally in navigating this new era in cryptocurrency investment
I feel one Of the greatest challenges that we first timers face in the ma rket is that we end up losing all we have, we find it difficult to find ourselves back to our feet. My biggest advice is to always seek the services of a professional just like I did when I ventured into it for the first time. Big thanks to Mrs Beley Haener. I now make huge profits by weekly through her services while still learning to stand on my own.
I agree that there are strategies that could be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such executions are usually carried out by investment experts or advisors with.
How do I get to reach her?

Why don’t you expand your inflation history back to 2000 or 1990? Everybody knows that FED and all other Western central banks had there interest rate around 0% or less throughout the years between 2010 and 2020! A decade of low inflation! Stop misleading your audience!
