Biden Says That Prices Are Still Too High
so Companies Should Just Lower Them

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 11/30/2023 6:43:15 AM

Joe Biden has apparently noticed that the price of everything is much higher on his watch than a few years ago. He is now asking sellers to just lower their prices. As a viral commercial once said. That’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works. Companies don’t lower prices just because inflation is politically inconvenient for the president and his party. (X) From the New York Post: Biden admits prices ‘too high’ but blames sellers for 18% inflation President Biden acknowledged Monday that prices are still “too high” and argued that companies should lower them after an 18% jump in consumer costs since he took office.

You see folks? That's why we aren't in charge. Why didn't any of us think to just tell everyone to lower prices?

Joe..start this process. Begin with a 20% whack on the salaries of the executive office, and on the costs of your personal air taxi. The next day, just cut the price of government by 20%. See how easy this is ?

Brilliant strategy to control inflation. Like King Canute, commanding the tide, order corporations to lower prices below cost. Shame them if they don't. Otherwise - blame Trump.

Receipts - costs of goods sold = gross margin. That formula is not going to be changed to help Joe's dismal chances of reelection although somebody is manipulating the price of gasoline and has been since September. The millions of people who can no longer afford Big Macs drive the prices up even higher for those who can or are addicted to fast food. Same with groceries and other expenses. For the first time I am seeing huge sales on expired vegetables and baked goods that people simply can not afford to purchase when fresh. Joe's spending habits along with having incompetent people manipulating transportation, interest rates, crime, business-killing regulations and lying about all of it are not helping him either.

I am old enough to remember when Jimmy Carter decided to limit the price of gasoline. There were immediately massive shortages, and we all had to wait in ridiculously long lines (like 6+ hours) to get 10 gallons of gas once a week. I was working at a shop one summer, and that was my job every week -- to take the bosses car and wait in line to get him gas. So you know that Senile Joe bidet's puppet masters will mandate this tomorrow if they are making bidet "suggest" it today!!! You would think that the president of the United States would have taken an Economics 101 class at some point in his life. But I guess that doesn't apply to appointed puppet presidents!!!

President Trump spoke in Newton, Iowa ahead of the January 15th Republican Presidential Iowa Caucuses. Trump is spending the day in Iowa and will participate in two “Commit to Caucus” campaign events – one in Newton and the other in Clinton. “Violent criminals are running wild in our Democrat-run cities while law enforcement has been weaponized against Christians and conservatives and people of faith like never before.” Trump said. “This guy goes around and says I’m a threat to democracy. No, he’s a threat because he is incompetent.” Trump continued about Biden.

Republican attorneys general from 27 states have filed a court brief supporting Donald Trump in his Supreme Court battle to remain on Colorado's 2024 presidential ballot. In a 22-page 'friend of the court' brief filed on Saturday, the attorneys general called on the high court to strike down a Colorado court decision barring Trump under the 14th Amendment's insurrectionist ban. The Supreme Court will hear arguments in the case on February 8, and its decision on Trump's eligibility to run for president will have far-reaching implications for the November election, after Maine acted separately to ban Trump on similar grounds.

The former South Carolina governor and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations has been “surging” in polls according to media hype with the narrative being put into place to use a strong early showing in the battleground state of New Hampshire as the launching pad for her national rollout as the alternative to Trump. On Friday, the former president blasted the media darling during a campaign event in Sioux Center, Iowa, less than two weeks before the Hawkeye State’s January 15 caucuses,

The call comes out of the blue. Perhaps, you recognize the number. 'We have your daughter,' shouts a strangely menacing voice on the line. 'Send us money or she dies.' 'Mommy, please help.' Your heart stops. It's your child's voice. Panicked, a family does whatever they're told to secure their loved one's release from an apparent kidnapping, including wiring tens of thousands of dollars, immediately, to a specified account or even dropping a bag of cash on a street corner. Hours or even minutes later, the dust settles and a bemused daughter, on vacation in Mexico or skiing on a remote mountain slope, would check their phone and learn of the chaos.

Barack Obama and his “Hope and Change” for America represented a political Trojan Horse phenomenon. Joe Biden was Obama’s choice for his vice president for eight years of his Trojan Horse presidency. Joe Biden’s presidency has been an Obama Trojan Horse II with less subtle, more blunt messages of political persuasion and policy formation. Obama, through clever political manipulation, presidential dictates, and eloquent speechmaking brought a seductive liberal, progressive, socialistic utopian vision to America. Obama used sophisticated Alinsky-style tactics to construct his Trojan Horse.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi just stunned viewers on national television by admitting that she thinks states should decide who’s allowed to run for president of the United States. This would give states like California the ability to drop former President Trump from the ballot if she got her way. Many feel her actions aren’t about protecting “democracy” but about pure, unadulterated power. Pelosi told CNN’s Dana Bash on Thursday that although “martyr” Donald Trump could be the beneficiary from the “raw politics” of being removed from state presidential ballots, it’s the “kitchen table issues” that are important to American voters.
