Yeah, the guy who went bankrupt six times and whose dad needed to float him a billion dollars to keep him solvent will do a better job with the economy.
Well said
Trump left us with $8 trillion more of national debt. He's doing to our country what he did to his casinos. He failed at most of his businesses. Don't let this fraud near the WH again.
Joe will give illegals over 100 billion in the next 10 years.
He's also had to massively lie and cheat to keep his businesses running. That's why he owes New York State $450 million in penalties.
Ok so you have a guy in the w/h who is on his second dog because his first dog bit 11 people and now his dog is biting expletive. So he can’t teach his dog not to bite his staff, the dog is smarter that him for the second time.
Corporate corruption and greed need to stop!!!!!
Sounds exactly like the Trump Organization- greed and corruption.
This is why I'm communist.. ☭
They have to be stopped with regulation. You don't just tell them to play nice.
Yes, add more regulation....that should help with inflation. Should see similar results as increasing minimum wage......democrats need to start connecting the dots and using common sense. Sarcasm aside.....more regulation=more inflation, increased minimum wage=more inflation
@@Crackthud23 That simplistic view doesn't hold up in practice. Setting the minimum wage too high causes inflation. A reasonable one doesn't. My state increased the minimum wage years ago. A few border cities have some trouble filling unskilled jobs. Otherwise, no problems. I pay the same here as I do 8 miles away. They have the national minimum wage. You think they wouldn't undercut if they could? California had too many of those go well, and they thought they could just keep raising it. Uh, no, it has to be the right number for the economic strength of the businesses.
As for regulation, well-considered laws keep prices down. It always helps to prevent monopolies, price setting, and other antitrust behavior.
Corporate big profits is what is keeping prices high ,not the government.
If we could get a Democrat majority, we could snatch those unreasonable profits BACK with reasonable taxation

What's strange is how they all of a sudden got greedy just a few weeks after Biden became president. Inflation and gas prices went through the roof. It was weeks before Russia invaded Ukraine but of course Biden blamed it all on Russia.

Well it still feels like inflation, even if it's only in the last link in the supply chain where the cost increases happen.

And another thing, if people are getting better wages that cost gets tacked on. It's all corporate greed!
They're going to parks because they can't afford other vacations. Personal credit usuage is at a high, and deliquencies are mounting.

The only thing that will bring down prices is breaking up the major monopolies. They have a hold on our products from food to medicine.
Well, perhaps not the only thing. Outrageous C-suite compensation packages - even when they’re on their way out the door - is another factor. NO ONE deserves multi-million dollar pay + multi-million dollar benefits + multi-million dollar perks. NO ONE!
When has the "cost of living" NOT INCREASED???? NEVER!!! BOUGHT A CAR IN THE 1990s?? How many presidents have we had since THEN from BOTH parties??? NOW tell me a year what year prices DIDN'T GO UP??

Hey dipsticks, corporations collude with government. It’s called lobbying.
You are exactly right. Gas was ten cents a gallon in the 70s before OPEC had the world in a strangle hold.

Watch Chris Hayes on President Biden's brilliant move on OPEC.
Never place brilliant and Biden in the same sentence!
They would rather push the 🍊💩 🚽
Fuel prices here are dropping, at time in the year when ordinarily they're rising due to summer driving season. Will Biden get credit for that? Not if you listen to conservative media. Also look at long term oil prices. They rose significantly before and after the 2020 election, but have been slowly dropping on average ever since. However again if you listen to conservative media any price for gasoline above $1 a gallon is Biden's fault.
Trump loves to say tariff, but sadly Trump does not explain what a tariff is and most of his supporters do not know that a tariff increases the price on the product that is placed on, so it ends up costing consumers more for that product. So if you have two of the same products but one is domestically made but the cheaper one is from another country its meant to even out the prices but the consumer ends up paying a higher price to protect the domestic manufacturer of their product, it does not help reduce COST.
BUT it helps build a stronger middle class by returning manufacturing plants back from China.
@@cactustree505😂😂😂 how’s that working out for ya? 😂😂😂
The Boston Tea Party was over the tarifs on the East India Tea Company being cut and making imported tea cheaper than American tea.
@@cactustree505 Those manufacturing plants will produce products that no one can afford to buy.
@cactustree505 Yeah, manufacturing isn't coming back to the US. Not in any macro way. China is already seeing outsourcing to other places in East Asia and South America. We can thank corportism for that. Twenty years ago, that was still a platform for both major parties, and now that's barely on the minds of voters because it's just become a fact of life.

@@kelperdudeTrump’s suppositories
I definitely know its gouging. It was supply and demand during the pandemic that raised prices because products were becoming scarce due to productivity and transportation personnel and shipments. Including hoarding. Those prices have NOT come down ! There is no reason for that now that the process of shipment, employees, transportation and product are widely available and easily shipped. They should have came back down. They did NOT. Companies like those profits. Look at what you spent during the pandemic vs now.
You just went through a world wide pandemic... there are wars going on... you're scared and with good reason... that doesn't mean you aren't doing well... that things aren't going the right way... and it sure doesn't mean you let the criminals run the show... cause you will regret it if you do, and if they have their way, things will get worse, not better... and you will end up loosing more than you ever thought you could...

Well said.
corporations are raising their prices and re-packing products which are smaller than usual and reducing the amount of fl. ounces....if you are looking, it is very noticible. And if you are looking at corporate profits, they are "over the top". Please include this factor so consumers will understand cost of living impacts more fully.
Higher prices are from CEO salaries 200 times the average worker's at their companies. Cut that to just 25 times the average, and prices would go down.
DOJ needs to make a big deal out of going after greedy corporate price gouging! TRY THEM IN PUBLIC. Make it a weekly press conference held in grocery stores, congressional hearings, and courthouses exposing the facts about the post pandemic greed that's driving the cost of food up. Also show that it's going on in other countries too.
Sadly, price gouging isn't illegal federally. Democrats proposed an anti-gouging law... MAGA blocked it.
In Australia we have the same thing the Economy and Jobs best ever while cost of living prices are worst.

He has done nothing but lie since he lost the 2020 election, he lied about the election, 62 court cases have proved he is nothing but a grifter and liar.
I wish Americans would take a simple economics 101 class. They don't know how capitalism works. Low unemployment, high consumer spending, and businesses booming (plus a high stock market) = high inflation. Higher unemployment, slow business = low inflation. That's why they actually like unemployment at about 6%. That helps keep inflation in check. Unemployment is about 4% right now. The more people working, the more they spend, and booming business, inflation goes up because businesses will charge more. This is econ 101. Sorry, but that's how capitalism works. Biden has nothing to do with it. Notice he said jobs, wage, stock market are doing well. In capitalism you have to take the good with the bad.
It makes me sick to see these stupid people know nothing about the way our country even works.
The main result of capitalism’s dependence on “growth” seems to be the devaluation of money. A potato or gallon of milk has a constant real value. When the price goes up, the product is not worth more. The money is worth less.
A lot seem to need civics class as well. Senator Tubberville didn't even know the 3 branches of government and how the checks and balances is supposed to work.

I live on SSI and nothing else. So money was tight. I got rid of the vehicle so no more payments, insurance, and repair costs. I happen to live on a city bus route that runs every 15 minutes.

I cut it close on the budget but I manage. The cost of foods have risen since COVID 19 but I am seeing a shift of lower prices at the store and I don't eat beef every day either. When you have so much money to work with and the rent is high and cost of electric increased It doesn't leave me much but I opt for foods that is well within my budget.

Groceries are ridiculously high-it is absolutely crazy. Basic things like vitamins, home cleaning products. It’s nuts out here!
"Men use thought only as authority for their injustice, and employ speech only to conceal their thoughts."
~Voltaire
I would agree to this if the word 'some' were added to the beginning of the first sentence. "men" are not all alike and to believe so is folly.
A nod to Voltaire.
"Don't believe your lying eyes!"
Americans should keep in mind that all countries are doing it domestically economically tough since the pandemic, many worse than them. However if you travel to another country the exchange rate for Americans to most countries is very very, favourable, compared to travellers going to America!
Your democracy is more important at this point, because if you lose it there is no going back under a dictator.
Corporate GREED IS SHAMEFUL 😢
This generation whines too frickin much. Surprise!, it cost to live, it was hard to live 30 years ago put your priorities in order. People will pay$10 for a burger but won't pay $5 for a lb of ground beef, $5 for a breakfast sandwich not $3 for a dozen eggs. Oh well It is what it is deal with it.
You voice an interesting perspective, but add labor costs to any product and expect a minimum of a forty percent increase in price.
Good thing the younger generation is on the exact same. Wages as 30 years ago, not adjusting for inflation.
Your attitude of got mine FU 9nlu works until you retire and then your dying on the street
@@00pinkman00 Don't forget about post pandemic woes.
How much convenience can we afford with corporations sucking up all disposable income. If such income is not there to begin with.
If you can't afford it, don't buy it. This is how one fights inflation.
Paying attention to prices before putting items in your cart.
Send the message, no to the food industry.
But I believe some people would rather die than be without inconveniences.
Those people willingly drive up the costs. They can go to high markup stores and not look at the price before they throwing items in their cart.
President's have limited power.
If they exceed their power they get impeached and in the end they get removed from office.
Yeah wages. Not rising in 20 years but costs rising is awesome and any young person who can live on 400 a week is a loser because you did 30 years ago
in the uk we dont go off "vibes" we go off facts
Right. How you got Boris Johnson.
Brexit was CLEARY an emotionally charged, intellectually dishonest, campaign. That failed, right? Ya'll saw right through those lies right?
oh...
Bullocks! Harry Potter !! Lol 😆 ❤
Cool, let's talk about the facts that got you into BREXIT.
Idiots can be found in every corner of the globe.
First off, chump's not going to debate and secondly, people are sofa king ignorant to think the president has influence over consumer prices, housing and gas...they don't
But his base thinks he does and that's all that matters to them.
Biden has been attacking corporate greedflation and signed a $1.9 trillion emergency spending measure, soon after taking office, to help people and businesses hurt by the downturn.
third, Trump in a electoral landslide!🇺🇸
@timradde4328 That's the problem, his base is incapable of thinking independently which also proves there's to many stupid people breeding in this country
@@evolutionistheflyingspaghe2702Fourth, you get nothing from him
That told me exactly nothing I didn’t already know.
Inflation is continued at the grocery store because corporate entities are allowed to price items as they please minus any regulation, you can thank Trump for that.
Stop it. I'm 65. I'm homeless. Employers don't want a college-educated 65-year-old male. I live in a motel because moving to an apartment is financially impossible. If it weren't for friends keeping me afloat, I'd be living on the street one week out of every month. That's not "vibes." I'm not stupid enough to vote for Trump, but don't tell me things are good.
Private equity wants all the money for the rich.
Biden did this
When anyone says "things are good" they are not speaking for EVERY individual on the planet. They are speaking as a reflection of the data. Now, there are MANY data points that define what "are good" - as Ari said, "there are many indicators...". He never said everything is good. There is nuance to everything. It's not a black and white issue of whether things are "good" or "bad". Too many variables and too many individual experiences.
For example, 48% of people say things aren't look good in the economy; however, simultaneously 72% of people say things are good for them.
I'm a 65 year old college educated male. There is plenty of demand for my skills. Just changed jobs for more money. I'm not dumb enough to vote for Biden. I keep thinking one day I'll get a taste of the Kool aid , but it never comes my way. From my point of view he sucks bad.
I’m sorry for your situation but none of what you describe has anything to do with Biden. Employers never want to hire 65 year olds. No president is going to change that.
It’s about holding on to the goodness that always pulls us through as a whole.
MAGA sez whaaa?
Sadly, people forget that emotions drive decisions, and emotions will override logic and reasoning.
Hear, hear!
Let’s go back to trump’s experience as a business owner…..
Have you forgotten that Trump had to prop up the economy w $8.4trillion so his business sense is suspect.
Trump is an incompetent business owner, politician, and criminal. If he was a good business man, his businesses wiuldn't be shut down or under investigation for fraud. If he was a good politician he wouldn't be out to tear everything up and replace it unAmerican and self agrandizement, and more. If he was good at crime he wouldn't be under indictment, convicted and adjudicated criminal.
What, perpetual bankruptcy.
Trump has been a complete failure at everything he's done
@@00pinkman00 yes, and why people think he’s so spectacular at managing the economy?
He even bankrupted a casino!! How is that even possible!! Now he wants to bankrupt OUR country!! Vote Blue For The Sake Of OUR Great Nation 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙
I do research on a variety of subjects. Learn about being Governed under Authoritarian Rulership. Ask Google what is Kleptocracy Rulership. Kleptocracy Rulership is a different type of Dictator Rulership. The poor people are the ones who suffers under Dictator Rulership.
I don’t blame Biden. I blame corporate greed for high prices. 🤯
Except it isn't actually inflation. It's corporate greed. Profits are at all-time highs. How do people not see this?
The "bad vibe" is inflation and the housing market. It's quantifiable, it's not "a feeling" to those affected.
Yep, and while Americans suffer the GOP is laser focused on petty revenge.
It's human nature to complain! This makes bad vibes. They don't want to be bothered by the facts. If they don't understand what a person says to them they cop out saying that they don't know what they are talking about.
Messy thinking = vibes
Any place, any time! We'll soon see.
Trump will not do anything about prices. Corporations dictate prices and as long as they're allowed to price gouge, nothing will change.
I’m not vibing my groceries prices!
I'm disappointed you didn't point out in your reporting that corporate profits have exploded during this time of so-called inflation
I can't believe MSNBC aired the Trump Doral Commercial today. Thats it I have to say goodbye to some of my favorite News jounalists
Well food and rent have gone up a lot in the last few years. You can tell the regular people that the stock market is good now, but that's not really going to help them.
ECONOMIC FACTS vs. Feelings (VIBES)
Creditors do NOT Care how you feel about paying your bills: Creditors just require you PAY your Bills.
Economy is doing well. People not so much. What district does the economy vote in?
Bam!
As a male democrat, nothing makes my lady parts tingle like news about Donald J. Trump. 🥰💙
how do you think his cult of idiots feel?
@@VeritySnatchfun fact: if you take the word “CULT” and replace the L with a N, it will spell democrat.
Typical deranged coward.
@@sandtrapwarrior Wow, I bet you think that was funny. Don't quit your day job if you even have one.
@@timradde4328unlike democrats I am employed. Thank you.
“On paper the economy is doing really well “ sure thing pal,I love Ari but this does not hit the every day struggle Americans
It's often the case that the people who complain the most about the economy are those who understand it the least.
So blame the victim??
The big disconnect as I see it is that when President Biden talks about the economy he is talking about high-level numbers like unemployment figures, inflation levels etc.... (which are good at the moment) but that means very little to the average person in middle America who is now paying 30% more on their weekly shop than they did only 4 years ago.
People conveniently forget that we saw during Covid pandemic, that many were being paid at a very very low wage, so wages rose…and so we are paying for part of that as well.
Thanks for your opinion Troll 😂
I’m sorry, but I don’t care about the market… I’m not even close to retirement. What I care about is that despite being “middle class” I cannot afford to buy a house, and insurance is ridiculous expensive.
Welcome to the whole world!!! Not just USA.
Tell another porkie, you’re obviously not middle class
Is this lack of caring about others a disservice to you?
Narccisim is a big part of today's problems.

As an economist the economy is not doing well. Look at the yield curve..
