I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight.
I am just getting tired of the media. All of it.
When I was younger it was biased, but tried to maintain at least an appearance of being objective.
Trump fully flushed that out, and now they are just a propaganda machine. It feels very much like living in Oceania circa 1984.
The oil and gas shortage and prices is due directly to federal policies intended to do exactly what they are doing, raise oil and gas prices so high that "green" alternatives become more cost effective. It has been the stated policy of the Left and Biden's shadow administration is implementing it.
Higher food prices are due directly to the labor shortage (caused by brilliantly paying people to not work and some other factors) and the higher oil and gas prices, which of course is the key economic input into every other production process in the economy.
The war in Ukraine contributes to prices in the form of basic uncertainty and higher economic risk calculations more than anything else. It's a factor, but it's not the driving factor at all.
Just like in the 1970s, when you spike the price of major economic inputs you get inflation. It's not exactly complicated.
The more they defend Biden as if this is a good economy and he's doing a good job with it, the more people see them for the liars and propagandists they have become. That at least is good news. Once they stretch all credulity this much they expose themselves to more people.

People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.
This means a wheat shortage is expected so that Biden can then import some wheat and claimed he resolved the crisisOriginally Posted by dan_bgblue
