Tell me a story, Uncle Joe

American Thinker:
By Terry Paulding

I know much has already been written about the “State of the Union” speech.  I must admit, I heard only one pair of sentences live, “on accident,” as the kids say.  It made me want to hold my hands over my ears and shout “lalalalalala.”  Those sentences — Uncle Joe actually said, “One way to stop inflation is by driving down wages and making Americans poorer.  I think I have a better idea to fight inflation: lower your costs, not your wages.”

First, explain to me, please, Uncle Joe, how lowering wages would have cut inflation.  Explain to me how, if someone must commute to his job, but can barely pay for gas with the higher price at the pump, and is barely making enough now to deal with the higher grocery prices to feed his family — how would cutting his wages have stopped inflation?  By letting his family starve?  I guess that’s one solution.  I mean, homeless people here in California get paid pretty well, after all!

Uncle Joe, please, tell me how you propose we can lower costs to end inflation.  Seems as if your own actions set us on a vicious cycle of escalating those costs!  We no longer have energy independence — remember that from a mere 14 months ago?

Now we buy from Russia, supporting their war against our friends in Ukraine!  We’re sending our money to a country we supposedly don’t trust or like because you shut down our fossil fuel production.  Nice going!  Didn’t anyone ‘splain to you that the only way to cut energy costs would be to resume pumping and transport our own oil?  Yet that’s not part of your big green agenda. more here

  1. ONE OF MY SONS LIKES TO TRIGGER ME BY TURNING ON MSNBC…EVERY TIME I HAVE TO SEE THOSE FREAKS, ALBEIT ONLY BRIELY, WHAT ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT?? JAN 6!!

    IF BIDEN HAD MIRACULOUSLY DELIVERED A COHERENT SOTU, THEY’D BE TALKING ABOUT THAT, RIGHT??

    SAME BULLSHIT SANDWICH, DIFFERENT DAY

  2. “…handled by others.”

    But, even his speech writers are idiots. And the “others” are criminals of the worst kind.

    And we’re supposed to go about life as normal?

    It doesn’t appear as though the SWAMP can be drained.

  3. The lames don’t even understand what inflation is. They think it’s prices going up, the dolts. They also think more money can fix everything and they think money equals products. Much like they think health insurance equals health care services. They’re really that dense. And they’re running things for goodness sake! A vignette from a biography of Pablo Escobar has him and a buddy on the run, in a cave in the soaking wet very cold jungle trying to get hundred dollar bills to burn enough so they can stay warm. That story won’t make the slightest dent in the thinking of our ‘elites’.

  4. BTW, Jerome Powell is either a complete moron, or part of the plan to push the BS and bring about the fall of our country.

    His latest in inflation? It’s because the economy is so strong. No shit.

  5. Our author mistakes the Ukrainians as “Our friends”. Let me rectify his mistaken assumption; THOSE PEOPLE ARE JOE BIDEN’S FRIENDS. The people running that country are about as corrupt as they come. The MSM is pumping horse, bull and bat shit onto the airwaves to make them look like victims of Putin. Putin ain’t no angel, by any stretch, but in order to deal with the scum that has been terrorizing the Donbass for the last 8 years, a guy like Putin is just what the doctor ordered.
    If anyone is interested in the real agenda these links should provide a good starting point.

  6. build back better is going to watch while another nuclear power plant melts down and pollutes Europe. Is this part of the green new deal? Are we waiting for a complete meltdown before we start pumping oil in America. lets do the math on that one. 1. nuclear power plant meltdown versus 2. pumping oil in America with real sanctions for russia/china and arms for ukraine. lefty trolls where are you? the world is melting under your watch.

  7. The only business Biden understands is GRIFT. Ask any CEO or business owner and they will tell you that the biggest expense they have to deal with is PAYROLL. Monthly payroll has a huge impact on the final cost of the product. Most businesses operate on a 2% profit margin. There is little room to reduce costs without reducing staff. Typical dumb ass liberals always think business owners are greedy w/o examining what is involved in running a business.
