You all can give this post the thumbs down because I don't like what is said here either
but it is 100% backed up by fact, common sense, high education, world wide intervention, communication on a daily basis with world leaders, and also has the ears of such leaders as they listen. Ed don't like this post because he don't agree with it, I don't like it because I know that the words are truth.
Read the whole report instead of making such a statement about job growth under Biden.

Also how many American people realize or ever understand this. Other then steal more of American's hard earned money by raising taxes, what magical way can Joey Biden pay of the deficit and debt along with reduce inflation ?

Payrolls rose 390,000 in May, better than expected as companies keep hiring
Nonfarm payrolls were expected to increase 328,000 in May, according to Dow Jones estimates.

Debt vs. Deficit: What's the Difference?
A debt is money owed and a deficit is an imbalance of spending vs. revenue. A country that has debt and/or deficits does not necessarily have a weak economy.
We have a philosopher in our midst - I believe that in the truest sense of that word’s meaning.
Stanley, at times it is infuriating when people (both sides) use half truths as 'proof' of political truth. You talked of the Carter admin; you did not include key factors that led to that inflation-the end of hostilities/involvement in Viet Nam and Middle East turmoil. The Cold War ****** EVERY country to choose one side or the other, and neither had the interest of the common people in those nations at heart. America propped up the Shah of Iran AND Saddam Hussein as buffers against those Arab/Moslem countries willing to wage war with Israel. Now before you freak out, the persecution of the Jews by the Nazis was truly evil and they have the right to live but morphing that to Israel has the right to exist with total disregard for the people who were living there when the UN established the nation in 1948 was and is problematic to this day. The Shah made millions, lived lavishly and the citizenry suffered, enabling the Ayatollah to inspire revolution and preach hatred toward America who backed the Shah. The fall of the Shah, the fall of the American embassy and the hostages caused uncertainty in world markets starting with oil. As Carter negotiated for the hostages, the incoming Reagan administration also negotiated, with incentives to holding the hostages until the change of administrations.You all can give this post the thumbs down because I don't like what is said here either
If you talk to as many business people as you say you do you MUST know the President doesn't drive prices, the markets do. One of the greatest political maxims of all time is "War and warfare are always good for business." The man that said it was Napoleon Bonaparte. When warfare begins and/or ends markets readjust. You stated in the last couple of days only the oil companies were profitable right now-not true. The defense related industries dipped at Biden's pullout and roared as soon as the Russian attack was seen as imminent.
well said
O - I believe the need to win is far more important in politics than the TRUTH is sadly - both sides are guilty of that IMHO.
Interesting the discussion has evolved from its erratic start any ideas how the US may improve not just as a world power but as a good example of what a civilized country should be?
yes that is clearly true by example
In 1992/1993 the Senate, controlled by a 58% Democrat majority investigated this and decided "by any standard, the credible evidence now known falls far short of supporting the allegation of an agreement between the Reagan campaign and Iran to delay the release of the hostages."
In parallel the House, controlled by 61% Democrat majority also investigated and declared: "there is no credible evidence supporting any attempt by the Reagan presidential campaign—or persons associated with the campaign—to delay the release of the American hostages in Iran"
But hey why bother with facts and reality when you can spew good ole political lies about your opposition, right? Especially true when the events were before the birth or at least adult memory of many of your audience.
I can respect your post, I can recall much of the history you shared.
Isn't it to bad that government can't do honest investigations instead of party first at all cost railroading like they did a few years ago !
I don't; if the process was truly a level field, why ******* an electorate to NOT keep who works for them? I'd like 1) Limit donations to citizens only with caps OR to the party, with sample auditing by the IRS and 2) Federal districting done by the Census Bureau-the same data used to determine number of delegates has pinpointed geographic centers for a given population for decades. Why are politicians choosing who votes for politicians when we long ago legislated how the citizens are grouped to choose their politicians.
Take the money out and make them go back to door to door, bake sales, church and union meetings and job sites and look the voters in the eye instead of the millions of dollars for the slickest shock ads that true or not are on EVERY thing else I want to do. Everyone of them as soon as they get the job start chasing money to keep the job.

You've gotten some history on why it was so high at the time. It was the second time most American realized parts of our economy are tied the global economy. Yes, Vietnam, Middle East turmoil and instability- some of it manipulated by us in an attempt to install or control governments back when our CIA was ruthless and the Church hearing were novel.
Not true. But again- we went through a world wide pandemic. Not only was our consumption down, but it was down around the world and thus manufacturing almost came to a halt. This is something that economists were writing about in 2020. However, getting back on track has been difficult because now, people are buying more than before the pandemic. So, the logistics has changed for the better. Now we can't get products in fast enough - and with that increased demand, comes increased prices. That's just plain capitalism.
Global oil prices are up. You've seen enough charts that this is the case in Europe, Asia and Africa too. You want lower prices fast? That would take 'socialist' methods. In those countries where the government demands prices, like Venezuela, they are not having record highs. Gas is like is less than ten cents a gallon, yes in 2022 it's .10/gal in Venezuela. However, that comes with a cost to capitalism.
You have to chose, either companies can decide what to charge consumers, or government can.
You want to blame government? Take of the gloves.
You and I both know this hasn't happened in almost 50 years.
When we try to do this for the federal minimum wage, people like you complain that McDonald workers don't need $14/hr.
It's not. That's just not factually correct. It was worse during the recession thanks to Bush - both of them.
Employment is the lowest it's been in 50 years. That keeps this from spinning out of control.
So far, you've been short on facts, and high on emotions. This statement is a reflection of your emotions.
(A consensus means everyone - not just a majority. So it's either a specific number of 'Major Head of Nations' or a Consensus)
I highlighted this because you've said it since Biden's election and it's just a blatant lie. I wish you could make your points on facts, I didn't have to go and correct you, so your follower can at least have some truth among his hatred of this country.
Biden was the choice of most of our allies and world leaders. And, when he made decisions on what the US and NATO would do in reference to Ukraine and Russia, most of the world followed us. His leadership has not only strengthened NATO, but has nations that are famously and historically neutral for almost 200 years, looking to join NATO.
I'll be interested in where you have drawn your conclusion - since you claim it's fact...

And this enough, you've done nothing but demonstrate how emotional and immature your political analysis is and are still trying to turn opinion into fact.
Since when you do have oil investments? Last checked, you were unemployed (in an almost full employment economy) living with your kid. You told us this yourself. So now you have discovered investments that you can live off of?
Why do you cons need to lie to make your point?
