So, you are saying that our economy is in better shape NOW under Biden ? Better than it was when Trump was president and our overall cost of living was a lot cheaper back then with lower food and gas prices, and more stable employment ? Businesses need to be able to operate, or everything collapses. When a business goes under, people lose their jobs. Prices of items (like food and clothing) goes up because with less businesses open, less of everything is available.
Our legislatures made the tax laws and all the loopholes for themselves. Not for us. Trump had used them. Biden said he was not raising taxes on any earning less than $200,000. Pretty sure that didn't include him, his family, his cronies and the Congress. But I know that the WEF is afraid of Trump. When he was first elected, WEF invited him to speak at their meeting. Kaus' face showed his displeasure when Trump went off on how we supported individual business growth and the sovereignty of our country etc, not just for the elites. I saved and bought my first house with a mortgage. People starting up now can't do that and won't be able to if Biden and the WEF have their way. You can see it on the WEF and Agenda 21 (now 30 because of Trump throwing a wrench into it) sites. Under Biden, China is buying up our farmland. Arkansas gave them their money back and handed them their hats. I would not mind new construction upgrading building codes. They do that anyway. But to force us to buy electric cars we don't want, retrofitting solar and heat pumps that can't keep us warm, put in toilets, appliances, whatever, to make us 'green' ...when India, China and developing countries' millions in populations are not taking us down a green path--it is all only about control of select populations where they are not controlled. There is proof that sustainable farming methods instead of factory farms does more for the environment than almost anything else. Trump also allowed us to try natural cures which worked for us. Truly there are some natural cancer cures we are denied even the right to try which do less harm than chemicals. Not saying anyone can't do traditional medicine but I and mine are doing fine with our ways of clean food and medicines and all should have to the right to try. My friend underwent aggressive cancer treatment and died. Some do natural treatment and die. We should have the right to choose. Right down to what toilet we want.
Look at other countries around the world. They are all experiencing inflation, some still high gas prices. Ask the members here from Australia, Canada, and the UK. How could that be Biden's fault? People in many countries are also blaming their current leaders for a phenomenon that is global. Trump's favorite indicators of a booming economy were always unemployment figures and the stock market. Stock market hitting new highs. Unemployment back to what it was then. This time wage increases are keeping up with inflation. Large corporations are doing well. Investment corporations are always meddling with things that don't benefit anyone but their stockholders. I will quit, now because there will be some little thing I'll type, that will cause a deflection to another subject.
"As America goes; so goes the world." It started here and spread in the "global economy." When Americans can't buy their junk, their economies suffer too.
I still think it is the WEF. Like @Nancy Hart said, this insanity is happening all over the world. Inflation, housing crises, governments taking control under the guise of global warming...not doing what the populace wants. Inviting illegal migration until all of a sudden, Sweden finds its bad, France? Italy? Even Biden when the election is getting close. Democrats screaming about Trump claiming election interference making him a traitor and now that we can watch the entirety of Jan 6, instead of out of context bits, they are removing Biden's competition from the ballot-- even if 50% of the population may want Trump. There are vids from here and Michigan that show drop box stuffing for 2020 but not enough time to see them? What is the definition of election interference again? But the WEF is afraid of Trump's interference because he may wake us up to the danger heading our way.
What serious housing shortage? There are 16,000,000 vacant homes in the US. That number may or may not include the 2,000,000 "second homes". Given that the # of homeless is about 560,000, there are plenty of homes. Affordability is a different issue, as is the condition of those houses, but there are plenty of homes. For example, here in Central Florida, Lakeland has 612 homeless and 59,717 vacant homes (mostly condos I'd guess). This data is from United Way, which is not known to be run by the far right.... https://unitedwaynca.org/blog/vacan... sit,thousands of Americans face homelessness.
In NYC the number of vacant appts. is substantial and the homeless plus illegals are too. But the insurance and upgrading required by the city and destruction when inhabited by low income renters causes owners to just leave them vacant. That with the deterioration in the city, defunding the police by diverting funds, buyers are not flocking to buy them. A tidal wave of housing issues is coming as Biden just made an EO to force all owners (nationwide?) to install green upgrades by 2026(?) Codes are supposed to be enforced.
I would love it to be fishy if you can help me find that. This vid offers several of the sites you can check if you like. Also google Agenda 21 progress and the WEF-- World economic forum. I already get notices from my power company(separate from my bill) comparing my home energy usage with the most energy efficient places in the area encouraging suggestions on how to use less energy. My hubby's house is so tight we had to get an air exchanger to let some drier outside air in. They were telling us what power users were using in my house which is not possible since none of our appliances are smart nor do we get our propane from our power company. Neither is the square footage in our house what they are comparing to the energy efficient counterpart.
Thanks, Mary. I will check it out. I believe they are going to start that with government buildings next year.
