Well then, you better start blaming Trump 😆 😆 😆 😛

@techsouth saidYou brought up HUGO CHAVEZ, who truly,
Never once argued in support of Nixon. In fact, my hope was that we'd remember the lessons learned by inflation in the 70s, but apparently not.
And I don't think you are using "whataboutism" correctly. If I had been defending Biden by saying "he may be kind of bad, but what about Chavez? Look how bad he is. Biden is good by comparison", that would be "whataboutism". ...[text shortened]... , if inflation continues to escalate, wait and see what happens and remember what I've written here.
@jimm619 saidReagan, ,ya think, eh???
You're right....Worst inflation since '81 when REAGAN was PRES.

@techsouth saidSo blaming corporations is scapegoating when you vote for a party who gets kickbacks for corporate tax cuts. And so you scapegoat the government because you vote for the out-of-power party.
Exactly what Hugo Chávez was saying as Venezuela was on it's way to removing 14 zeros from their currency in their currency adjustment. Bad leaders ALWAYS scapegoat industry as the effects of their expansion of currency supply leads to price increases. And sadly, there are ALWAYS plenty of ordinary citizens who will accept any excuse the regime in power offers.
Next wi ...[text shortened]... when allowed to continue that far let to families having to eat their pets to survive in Venezuela.
@jj-adams saidNormal?
Less than $50 a tank for a dinky hybrid gas/electric clown car.
I'm glad for you.
Does it have air conditioning?
So you can see how someone with a normal 4 door sedan could pay twice that, right?
@earl-of-trumps saidYes, he was - but he was raping individual teenagers back then, not the entire country in one go.
Reagan, ,ya think, eh???

Do I have that about right?
@mghrn55 saidThat's mostly tax, though
It would be $200 in England. Quit whining !!
