And so, it would seem that even at this last date, electorally speaking, both the Democrats and their many minions in the ‘fake news’ media remain convinced that they can convince enough of the American people that, economically, things are far better than what they are seeing with their own eyes. They actually think themselves able to make folks believe that they really are doing better than they were four years ago, this despite the fact that they are today paying far more for just about everything than were back during the Trump era. And they seem determined in their attempt to convince us it was all that it is just a figment of our imagination.
And it was just this past Thursday that we saw yet
another example at this. It came during another broadcast of MSDNC’s “Katy Tur
Reports.” You see, it was then that another leftwing huckster by the name of
Christine Romans attempted to make the argument that “We’re so scarred by the
fresh inflation memories that people really focus on the price they’re paying
for things, and they don’t really see the big picture” on economy among other
factors like the COVID pandemic and insurance, home, and childcare costs. And apparently,
we are to believe her claims because as NBC News Senior
Business Correspondent she’s supposed to know what she’s talking about.
Anyway, it was during this appearance that Romans
said, “If you look at the polls, people say it’s really lousy. And I think the
reason is because the inflation scars are really fresh. And what we lived
through the coronavirus pandemic was really awful. And so, you can look at
these topline numbers that seem to be so robust, and they are. The
International Monetary Fund says we’re the strongest economy in the world. The
Economist magazine had a whole issue called ‘The Envy of the World.’ The United
States, everybody wants to be like us, except for the people who are living
here, who are really distraught, really, about the economy."
She added that there is “small business creation
that is booming. You have plentiful jobs. You have wages, rising by one
measure, this week, 4.6%. So, wages are rising faster than inflation. We’re so
scarred by the fresh inflation memories that people really focus on the price
they’re paying for things, and they don’t really see the big picture. Also,
though, car insurance, home insurance, the difficulty in buying a home, and I
would say childcare.” Romans said that “the cost of college is still fresh” in
the minds of younger people, wages are good, and while the stock market has
done well, “only half of Americans are directly exposed to the overall stock
market."
And she went on to say, “I also think that, I go
back to how I feel like COVID stole our optimism And there are other periods in
American history when maybe you would look at these top-line numbers in the
economy, in the ’90s, for example, and people would feel — they would feel
buoyed by them. But they’re not really here. And, again, there are these
cornerstones of the American economy that don’t work for everyone.” Ms. Romans
sounds far more like a cheerleader than she does an economist. Credit card
default, and late-paying accounts have the bankers scared to death. A hiccup
could bring their entire house of cards crashing down. And they know it!
Well I gotta tell ya, food, rent, and not dying from
being forced to submit to a toxic fake-vaccine all sound like pretty “big
picture” to me, especially if one is broke, frustrated, and has had their life
ruined by the duo currently in charge, one of which that has Cumala as a member.
And might I add that the “scars” of inflation aren’t exactly fresh. They’re ripped
opened every time you shop for groceries, fill up your gas tank or receive a
bill from your home or auto insurer. This is nothing more than another lame
attempt at leftwing doublespeak made by yet another leftwing kook. The stream
of political bullshit from these people just never seems to end.
Yup, if you’ll just quit thinking about all the bad
stuff, you’ll realize that everything is just fine. The condescension, paranoia
and desperation oozing from every pore of this woman is the true indication for
her need to seek professional help. And at the end of her silly little rant,
she seems to extol the virtues of socialism. No thanks lady, America is the
greatest nation on Earth in spite of all this left-wing defeatist bullshit. How
do you say one is out of touch with the American people without actually saying
one is out of touch with the American people? These supposed elites continue to
think that the American people are stupid. But then, what else is new about
that.
You know, there’s nothing like some overpaid analyst
telling me what I am seeing, or not seeing. Yeah, I’d rather be here than
anywhere else in the world. But I am also not inviting every swinging dick here
for free stuff, either. It’s also my right to point out that my own government,
who seems to think they own me, is the direct cause of the problems that THEY
are allegedly trying to fix with their incompetence! And of course, the person
spouting this crap about not seeing the bigger picture is completely out touch
with the reality of having to worry about paying for things. Guess when you
have more money than brains you can say shit like this.
And another thing, just because the stock market is
doing well, doesn’t mean the average worker is. Most Americans are suffering
because of increased prices of utilities, food, gas, rent and more. Everything
is significantly more expensive while salaries, by and large, have NOT kept up.
So what, exactly, is the big picture? People read about companies laying off workers
and businesses going bankrupt. It’s almost as if the Democrats want you to get
used to higher prices on everything, leaving you with zip disposable income, or
even having to go without many things just to make ends meet. And they seem
confident that you will never catch on to what they’re doing.
And I guess I could be wrong, but for a Senior
Business Correspondent this lady doesn’t seem to possess much of an understanding
of basic economics. Inflation is an enemy of the people, caused by
mismanagement of those in charge. Overspending by government, supply issues,
caused by weak transportation officials, clearly we have amateurs at the helm. That
and a senile old man and an unschooled bimbo that have been leading us in
circles for the past four years. The Marxist political theory has been to
import 20 million low wage potential voters to pull the US out of this morass.
They’re subsidized, costing us more than their potential. It simply won’t work.
And finally, you gotta love
how these political actors on television, and who likdely make millions, want
to talk about struggling families trying to put food on their table. That is
what is happening in our country. The big picture to most Americans is what
they can, and cannot, afford to buy right now. Not what the economic numbers
look like across the country. That doesn’t put food on the table. By all means,
don’t trust your wallet or your eyes, trust only what a Leftist government and
their many flunkies tell you. An make no mistake, if President Trump does win
re-election and prices go down, it’s these very same people who will likely say
that it’s racist to feel good about it.
