Things are in fact getting worse for the average American over time… Or were you being facetious? That’s where the whole thing falls apart and you get nihilistic voters and raging petty tyrants electing a fascist.
Biden: Supply chains, inflation, corporate greed. Stay the course, things are improving over time
Okay not to defend Republicans, but if I was barely able to afford rent and heard “stay the course” I’d fucking riot. Please don’t present Biden’s position of “what do you mean? The economy is awesome” as the reasonably side here.
Inflation happened all over the world after covid due to supply issues, when production had to resume when restrictions were lifted. US had one of the lowest inflation in Western world
During first taco term there was a massive wealth transfer due to the tax bill. The corporate tax cuts were permanent, while cuts for us were expiring year over year, last one expires this year.
if I was barely able to afford rent and heard “stay the course”
…. And you had the awareness to see the historically huge investments in infrastructure, supply chains, renewable energy, EVs that would have added thousands of jobs? that inflation had been trending down and was near normal? Repeated attempts to implement assistance for the student loan crisis over Republican objections? Etc
Biden did a lot of the right things for all of us, but we needed to stay the course long enough for them to take effect and we needed to be both aware that they existed and patient enough to understand that some things take time.
Instead we voted for an orange child to throw tantrums and break all our toys.
Destruction is fast and easy, but building is much harder and takes more time
Setting aside that even then denying that there’s a problem at all is still fucking stupid, if you feel you have no future at all under the current system there is logic to burning everything down and hoping something less terrible comes out of the ashes.

Trump: Kill healthcare and social programs and deport Brown people. Instant fix.
Dumbfucks: I do hate people who aren’t like me. And harming others makes me feel better about myself. I’m in.

Two things:
Okay? What’s your point?
Would you still riot

I didn’t think I was. But a real dumbfuck chooses option B
But factually things were improving in spite of corporate greed. But as much as they could have. Now they’re not.
But this wasn’t an essay
When the alternative is to burn everything down, staying the course absolutely is the reasonable option.
