    That is a crock. We had price control boards in the past. What causes more inflation is lack of increases in wages and profit sharing. Full benefits as well. I remember too well the days when I enjoyed it all and then liberal and so called progressive politics entered the fray and chaos has ensued.

    I can't understand someone who hates this nation so much running for that job, and the press says nothing..

    My revulsion goes beyond his job..... Not to love your country is despicable.

    Well, since I am not versed on the subject I will give room to those who know to comment on your answer.

    Wage controls, set at the governmental level, simply lead to inflation, and a free market would be far more effective than government price controls.

    As I have said before, since its inception, the Federal Reserve has systematically destroyed the value of the dollar bringing its worth to about $0.00023 through inflation/deflation. Minimum wage must regularily be raised to keep people barely able to make it with bare necessities. It is as if there was a plan for westward expansion and settling of our great country and then it was found that the expansion needed to be reined in and this is the plan. To take everything from everyone as the powers that be don't need us for development any more. Maybe they don't even need us to fight the wars with all the technology.
    We are less able to buy what we need and we can be made to put things in our bodies that we don't want.
    Hmmmmmm... the plot thinckens.

    So let me ask a question, Mary. And this is an honest question, not a challenge to what you just said...

    Isn't raising the minimum wage like a dog chasing its own tail? When labor costs go up, the price of products must necessarily rise along with that cost component, thus negating any increased purchasing power. In other words, the two offset. Or is that inaccurate?

    One
    One would think so. So is this not just slowly taking everything from everyone?

    The thing is, the cost of living goes up regardless, and those earning minimum wage really feel the pinch.

    And back to Biden... I see that "Dr" Jill Biden flew to Houston on Air Force 1 with her entourage to hold up posters to elementary students to get vaccinated. Way to keep it green, doc!! Apparently some are exempt from that pesky global warming bruhaha. Our tax dollars well spent.

    Well, Superman and Wonder Woman showed up and the Houston Rockets (with only 1 win under their belt) gave out gift bags and free tickets to a Rocket’s game so who wouldn’t get their kid shot up?
    Added to all that, the shadow of Fauci Surgeon General escorted the uh…First Lady to the foray! My goodness, the only thing they missed was to take Harris with them or even better, had her pull up in Air Force II and have a 50 car entourage. Jus sayin’.

    Why don't they fly down to the Texas border and hold up the posters and gift bags instead of letting 700,000 aliens in with whatever disease.

    Because going to the border is Kamala Harris’s job and even though she isn’t doing her job we wouldn’t want Jill upstaging her now would we?

    Yup.

    Biden wants to audit all of our bank accounts so he can confiscate our savings and put us all on an allowance...because Mother Government needs the ka$h.
