Bidenomics has been a disaster. Things are not as rosy as they claim.

When one of you are willing to offer up an alternative solution that even remotely resembles an inclination that you’re paying attention to the problem at hand- we’ll start taking you seriously.

Until then, you’ll remain the joke that you are to everyone with a functioning brain.

You mean like tax cuts for the rich to fix every problem? Because that's all they have.

That accelerated with Regan and has been the status quo for every president since. Biden proposed a wealth tax and it got stone walled by a Republican congress. You could argue it's all for show but laying it at his feet is a little "mask off" with your intent.

Still likely a troll account just don't want you convincing the less critically inclined of insanity.

Edit: replied to the wrong person, this was meant to be a reply to the parent comment saying that "bidenomics" was the problem oops.

You mean every Republican president. Democrats have not chased trickle down economics.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sorry I should have been specific. I wasn't speaking about trickle down economics, I was speaking about the economic policies in general that tax the poor while leaving the rich mostly unaffected and while purposely building in loopholes.

This may not have been strengthened as much during times when Dems were in power but in the past it certainly hasn't been weakened, My argument is that Joe Biden has actually made moves to try.
