Just Politics

Republicans wants the cult to believe inflation is all Biden's fault. President Biden made the gas cost more than 2 bucks, President Biden caused the price of eggs at the market. The lies constantly repeated to enlist the the emotions to put them in power. It's only the lazy mind that won't look farther than the political talking point.

In a Senate hearing on corporate price gouging an expert says:

"In the second and third quarters of 2023, corporate profits drove over half of inflation — 53% of inflation.

Over the last 40 years before the pandemic, profits drove just 11% of inflation."

While you've been paying through the nose at the gas pump, U.S. oil companies have allegedly been conspiring to keep prices high.

Just so happens that Big Oil spent more on stock buybacks and dividends in 2023 than ever before.

Textbook corporate greed. https://t.co/rLi0O7QAfp
