American Families Struggle To Survive As Inflation And Gas Prices Soar

"By a continuing process of inflation, government can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens." — John Maynard Keynes
Biden 2024👎🏼
The Jan 6th thing is just a distraction from the steep rise in gas prices and other prices that President Biden has caused by his spending programs. When I think of Jan 6th I think of how much lower gas prices and other prices were then, how the Russians respected us before that and how we had just come off having a President that even at his lowest, had positive ratings higher than President Biden has.
Of course the black woman is a single mother, go back to your child’s father. marriage before carriage. The independent woman mantra has run its course.
Thanks to CORRUPT FED, HIGHLY INCOMPETENT BIDEN and his CORRUPT DNC we are Burning in NEVER SEEN INFLATION. HOUSES 100% inflated, Gas 100%+ inflated, what else do we need? One recession is not going to be enough for FED MONEY PRINTING EXPRESS Overstimulated economy and INFLATION to reverse! And CORRUPT and incompetent FED is JOKING with 0.75% hike: a pee in OCEAN!
A que dar gracias a los hispanos que son democratas por darnos alta gasolina. Aque votar por Biden para tener precios altos. Como somos pendejos por votar para los democratas
Notice American families. Go to Mexico border. You will receive free plane or bus rides to anywhere in America. Then you receive free housing, food ,transportation, health care ,and education.
Remember to thank your fellow American who voted for Biden and high gas prices never vote for democrat again we were gas independent under Trump Biden is puppet of the green new deal AOC. God is aware of the democrats and Biden abuse against the poor middle class of this country, shame on them
Thank a democrat for this spike in inflation.
But we have millions and millions for the Ukraine? The same 3rd world turd bags that danced in the street when the twin towers came down
American Definition of struggle
Spending $7 trillion in 3 years selfishly on liberal priorities, is not w/o its consequences
When the riots coming????
"Saving our democracy" form the people stealing it.
Look at the racist thumbnail. Black woman has incomplete family but everyone else has complete family.
Remember to thank your fellow American who voted for Biden and high gas prices never vote for democrat again we were gas independent under Trump Biden is puppet of the green new deal AOC. Strength voter integrity no to voter fraud. God is aware of the democrats and Biden abuse against the poor middle class of this country, shame on them
DON'T FORGET TO BLAME BIDEN FOR REMOVING THIS NATION'S ENERGY INDEPENDENCE. I REALLY MISS TRUMP AND IF ONLY THE ELECTION WASN'T STOLEN FROM HIM, WE'D BE PROSPEROUS BY NOW.
Trumps prediction is right Biden will make America poor gas from 2$ to 8$ 2023 12$ prediction
Remember, this is because of that joke in the WH. This is all his fault!.
Artificially higher wages, stimulus/unemployment checks means more money, more demand, same supply = Higher prices
More real wages, less stimulus/unemployment checks, less money, less demand, same supply = lower prices
I just ate frozen French toast lol! Then again I’m a no life ebt loner
What are Joe Biden's accomplishments?
It’s okay. We all agreed we’d pay higher prices for Ukraine. Why is this news?
We make good money and cannot absorb $460 a month. Definitely we’ve noticed it.
Talk about this media. How the heck I came up with this?

All these people have their own property, family, cars, etc. This isn’t suffering at all. Go to some other countries and you will see real pain
$50 billion to Ukraine
$255 billion to Taiwan
$0 to American citizen…amazing Biden 😈
Thank Joe Biden. Gets rid of oil production and won't approve new refineries. Prints money and gives it away. What do you think will happen?
If you are paying $30 for a kid's haircut, there is a reason why you have zero savings. And I think they can stand to lose a few pounds…maybe not so much junk food
Revolution is necessary ✊🏻✊🏽✊🏿
I'm single, and even I have to budget like crazy 😜
To save money on gas I been putting half prune juice and gas in my car! And let me tell ya it works wonderfully..try it!
