thaibeachlovers Posted November 26, 2023 Posted November 26, 2023 17 hours ago, Danderman123 said: You are correct. The best way to fight inflation is to increase taxes, particularly on the wealthy. Increased taxes reduce the deficit. Your man Trump decreased taxes on the wealthy, which blew up the deficit. The point of increasing taxes is to reduce spending, so it's a balance between controlling inflation and causing a recession. Reducing taxes allows more spending, thus stimulating the economy, but you knew that, didn't you? When the deficit is as big as it is, changing taxation is going to do sod all to that.

It has increased debt annual interest payments to almost $1T now, more than national defense spending, social security, Medicaid.etc. More than doubled since Biden was sworn in.

Here's a list of countries with 'LESS' inflation than the USA For 2023 - 2022 - 2021 2022 & 2021, I needed to put in 2 columns as there was so many ... IMF Data The one big problem with those statistics is that most countries don't compute inflation the way the US does when it comes to housing costs. Measured the way that other nations do, and the US inflation is considerably below what most of the rest of the world including Europe is experiencing This is from the socialistic Wall Street Journal Measure It Differently, and Inflation Is Behind Us "U.S. core inflation—which excludes volatile food and energy—measured using the standard consumer-price index was 2.6 percentage points higher than the European-style inflation, known as the harmonized index of consumer prices... The main reason is that Europe’s measure, known as HICP, doesn’t include the imaginary cost of what a homeowner would pay to rent their house, which makes up about a third of the U.S. core CPI... Exclude something that no one actually pays, and the weight of which in the index is calculated from guesses by homeowners of the rental value of their house, and core inflation is looking basically fine, at just 2.3%. https://www.wsj.com/articles/measure-it-differently-and-inflation-is-behind-us-6a6a89c1 And since then inflation in the US has declined further. 1

It did not work like that when Trump made tax cuts for the rich. Companies often used this money to buy back their stock. Not much of it went into the real economy. 1 1

True, and if against Trump he'll have a shot, but let's not pretend an 81 year old slurring his words is the same as Obama in 2011 or Clinton in 95. No way. Job well done Mr Biden now please step aside.

I like what I saw of Dean Philipps but he's likely a bit too light weight when it get's serious. Gavin Newsom has a good presidential chin and experience despite Californian baggage.

Personally to me the main difference between Biden and trump is (besides experience and morals) is Biden has assembled a crack team and listened to their council trump on the other hand cannot because of his mental illness and lack of morals.thats not to say there isn't many republicans that could provide sound council there is although most seem terrified of their voters 3

Perhaps you forgot that polls predict the popular vote, and they were correct in 2016. Polls taken a year before the election have low predictive value. Polls taken a few days before the election have high predictive value. Prove me wrong, if you can. 1
