They’re Redistributing Wealth, Not Fighting Inflation

Original Article

Posted By: Hazymac, 9/18/2022 8:19:27 PM

Biden threw a party to celebrate the Inflation Reduction Act on the White House South Lawn even as the latest figures showed that core inflation has continued to rise. Grocery prices had the steepest increase since 1979. Rent prices shot up again and medical costs are escalating. Even the most loyal media lapdogs could hardly stand this festival of lies. CNN cut away from Biden’s masque of red ink to show what was happening to the stock market. Reuters acidly headlined its coverage, “Biden celebrates ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ as food, rent prices climb”. So what’s there to celebrate? The Inflation Reduction Act is a lie.

Of course they're redistributing wealth. Nearly all the Democrats do in office is redistribute wealth, often into their own pockets...

it was a renamed catchall reconciliation bill...that had 8 prior names that it couldn't pass both the house and senate under...Including "Build back Better", it never had anything to do with inflation

It's not "redistribution", unless "redistribution" means "theft".

The entirety of your income is being taken by Biden. Even with dividends and interest, your portfolio is shrinking, and the value of any cash or current earnings is shrinking by 15% per year.

Trying to fill the insatiable maw of poverty, not with the gold of the wealthy - they are beyond the scope of government pickpockets. The easy marks are middle-class dupes who put their heads down and work hard and never complain. We do not have a second home on Marthas Vineyard, but we are the targets. They pat themselves on the back how helpful they are by making we middle-level taxpayers fork over our earned security to illegal interlopers. But get off their lawns in Chappaqua.

Politicians love to grease hands so theirs can be greased in return. Government today is "charity", and it uses progressive concepts to guide taxation. Of course, the "rich" never pay their fair share, while the poor are thought incapable of contributing toward civic expenses. The middle class always gets stiffed because it can be stiffed. You know the definition of "rich"...the guy making a buck more than you do.

After reading the headline before reading the article I was preparing to pounce and declare it's all about finding any means of implementing socialism but alas the article makes that clear. I will add that with the open border this is global socialism, asking the American wealth creators to support the entire globe while sharing in only an equal 1/7.57 billionth. We are being prepared to accept our new life as subservient peasants where nobody can afford to load up the family truckster and heads off to Wallyworld.

I called it shortly after Obiden's inauguration. Catastrophes such as we've had in monetary, cultural, legal and enforcement spheres could not all be happenstance, nor misjudgement. They are intentional and designed to cause as much pain as possible until we all cry 'socialism, we want socialism' And like it!

The only thing consistent about Democrats is, whatever they name their legislation, it will do the exact opposite of what the name implies. This should be called the Inflation Resurgence Act. Squandering "other-people's-money" on giveaway programs makes as much sense as using gasoline to put out a forest fire. The Federal Reserve's dinky garden hose doesn't stand against the trillion dollars of fuel this legislation adds to the inflation fire.

With the arrival of asylum seekers on Martha's Vineyard (and their quick removal) I was reminded of Barack Obama's lecture to Joe the Plumber, who was told it's best for everyone when we (meaning politicians?) spread the wealth around. The picture of Obama's Martha's Vineyard estate (one of his many luxury homes) provided some clarity. The owner of that beautiful estate once told Americans that at some point, "you've earned enough money." And now we have Americans losing their homes because they can't afford their mortgage payments, and families without enough food because inflation is eating their incomes. Hypocrisy on steroids.

Stacey Abrams' Embarrassing Weekend 8 replies

It must be tough to be part of Stacey Abrams’ campaign. For starters, the governor candidate has bought into every bit of the fawning press the mainstream media has generated for her. Secondly, she seems completely blind to the political realities that not everybody loves her like the left does — especially in Georgia. Last but not least, she continues to put herself in a position that makes it too easy for Gov. Brian Kemp and his team to not just attack her, but also to make fun of her. This weekend is a prime example of why Stacey Abrams has become such an embarrassing candidate. On Saturday, Abrams

The midterm elections are only weeks away. The Democrats are in complete control of the House, Senate, and presidency. Donald Trump's name appears nowhere near a November ballot. Yet the only things Democrats talk about are the former president and his "Make America Great Again" voters. It is as if Joe Biden's and Nancy Pelosi's political troops have no interest in touting their successes in opening the Southern border to endless illegal immigration, promoting divisive lockdowns and "vaccine" mandates, passing a Green New Deal spending extravaganza, encouraging transgender drag queen shows for elementary-schoolers, emptying prisons of criminals, eliminating cash bail for felony arrests, leveraging Americans' pain

From abortion rights to high prices at the pump, Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate Charlie Crist is out with a new campaign ad attacking Governor Ron DeSantis. In our ongoing series, “Truth be Told,” Fox 4 Investigates is looking at all the major election ads you see on TV every day. In an election year where many Republicans are blaming Democrats for rising inflation, the Crist Campaign puts high prices on the Governor. “If you’re fed up every time you fill up,” Crist says in the ad, “well maybe it’s time you had a Governor focused on you.” Toward the beginning of the ad, it claims

I would be embarrassed to conduct an interview with the president that was as lame as Scott Pelley’s lovefest with President Biden on 60 Minutes last night. The Biden administration accorded Pelley a substantial amount of time to chat with Biden and Pelley returned the favor with a variety of softballs and dropped balls as well as his own apologetics — to no one’s surprise, of course, but still. It was an embarrassment. CBS has posted the transcript here. NewsBusters covers the Biden segments in “State-Run TV: 60 Minutes Drools Over Biden in Syrupy Interview.” The lack of follow-up questions was one striking feature of the interview.

The Greek myth of the Augean Stables has rarely been more pertinent than today. In penance for his sins, the Greek hero Hercules (Heracles in original Greek) was ordered to scour the stables in which King Augeas kept 3,000 herd of cattle and which had not been cleaned in 30 years. The Labor was accomplished by diverting the river Alpheus through the structure, in itself no mean feat, even for a mythological hero. The slogan “drain the swamp,” restored to our political discourse by Donald Trump, serves as the contemporary description and political purpose of the Herculean Labor undertaken by the former president,

If you enjoyed watching the left squirm and enter fits of pearl-clutching rage after Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) flew 50 illegal immigrants to the deep-blue elitist Massachusetts island of Martha’s Vineyard, grab some popcorn and sit back in your comfiest chair because it’s about to get absolutely wild. The Florida governor took intense backlash for his decision to take advantage of Martha’s Vineyard’s sanctuary city policy, with some in the media even comparing his actions to those of Adolf Hitler. Clearly, DeSantis isn’t even the slightest bit fazed, as he recently doubled down on his new tactic during a press conference Friday, according to a CNN report. During the Friday presser,

I’ve always detested people who make facile comparisons of anything that goes on in the U.S. to the manifold horrors of Nazi Germany. The freedoms and privileges we’ve enjoyed in this extraordinary nation made even the worst problems we’ve experienced pale in comparison to the brutality and death perpetrated by the Third Reich. To my mind, drawing parallels between them is a cheap, insulting, and wholly illegitimate way of gaining quick attention.

It is sometimes believed that the ability to lie confers an advantage. “Disinformation is false information deliberately spread to deceive people… Some consider it a loan translation of the Russian dezinformatsiya, derived from the title of a KGB black propaganda department.” The name itself is wrapped in deception. “Defector Ion Mihai Pacepa claimed Joseph Stalin coined the term, giving it a French-sounding name to claim it had a Western origin.” Here’s an example: “Operation INFEKTION was a Soviet disinformation campaign to influence opinion that the U.S. invented AIDS. The U.S. did not actively counter disinformation until 1980, when a fake document reported that the U.S. supported apartheid.”

He is also an MD. Steve Deace asked Dr. Risch what was the biggest lie of the last 29 months of COVID pandemic. Dr. Risch says it was the lies about hydroxychloroquine in treating COVID 19. The FDA hid the evidence that HCQ was effective in the early treatment of the disease. Hundreds of thousands of people died as a result of this lie. The CDC-FDA officials promoted the questionable experimental vaccines instead and this helped Big Pharma make billions.

Mark Kelly, by a significant margin of 12 points. But matters have recently swung in Masters's favor, and a recent Emerson College poll has Kelly leading Masters by just two percentage points.

And Durham is gearing up for his last trial: the prosecution of Igor Danchenko, the principal source for the discredited Steele dossier. That last one should be grabbing our attention. We now know that the so-called dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele was a Clinton campaign production. It is one of the great dirty tricks in modern political history: The 2016 Democratic presidential campaign colluded

Who knew that residents of woke and progressive Martha’s Vineyard were racist, white supremacist, xenophobes? Former President Barack Obama owns a $12 million estate on this racist island off the coast of Massachusetts. Are the Obamas racists? Other liberal celebrities either live or frequent Martha’s Vineyard, including Oprah Winfrey, Larry David, Bill Murray, John Kerry, and the Clintons. Perhaps they are all racists, too, as the island has become anti-immigration. As NBC News confidently asserts, there is “racism behind anti-immigration rhetoric,” rhetoric which we are now hearing from Martha’s Vineyard.
