The inflation of durable goods can be tied to the pandemic that was going to be gone by April of 2020. When items are scarce, the price goes up. Econ 101.
I’m sure that money was all gone after Trump’s disaster out top 1% tax cut in 2017. That and the way he mangled the economy during the lack-of-a-pandemic-response period.
In Al’s universe, the T-P Tax Cut and Spend Scam (TTCASS) was a good thing, and addressing the nations failing infrastructure is bad. Funny thing about infrastructure, if you ignore it long enough, the cost to repair costs a whole lot more! And yet, what you spend is an investment that benefits the entire nation for decades to come, unlike the TTCASS, which invested in corporations’ and billionaires’ bottom lines.
But we all know that Al’s universe is different than anyone else’s . Goodwyn’s Law™. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrVLZwwZF6g
And the trumpettes are still costing us with the secret service still protecting most of them, as king trumpy demanded. I believe it was for 6 months. Should end in early/mid July.
I’d like to see the cartoon of Trump playing Chinese Checkers with Xi where Trump keeps saying, “King Me”, as Xi holds a marble in his hand. Trade wars are easier to win . . . ./S
Where in the bible does anyone: prophet or god or disciple say that money given to the poor is a waste because they will just blow it on drugs while giving money to the rich is an investment because they will surely build factories and open stores that will employ the poor and sell junk to the poor…..Unless the Book of Reagan has been canonized…?
How is it that so many of these right leaning cartoons (er, cartoonists), don’t understand either, a) fiat economies or, b) paying for something as you use it?

Really? Is Biden the King of bankrupting businesses including a casino?!?!
Butthurt conservatives are furious that a President would spend money on things that don’t serve to prop up the egos of the 1%.
Whenever money isn’t wasted, the GQP thinks it’s such a waste!

yeah king minus was Trump. .. except for adding to the wealth of the rich . . .
now some house democrats want to rescind the one good thing about Trumps tax bill though. .. the limitation of SALT state and local tax deduction
more infrastructure spending is not the thing to do now either

It’s so great to have a president that seeks to spend the nations wealth on the whole of the population, not just the upper crust.

Does Goodwyn have any credibility? [ He seems to be from the ‘Giuliani School’… ]

Why are Republicans so pre-occupied with thinking that POTUS’s are kings? Projection?
