Gary Varvel for August 05, 2022

AMERICA, WE HAVE A PROBLEM

Only a liberal would consider a spending and taxation bill as a way to reduce inflation. They just know things that aren’t so.

The right wing fools and cartoonist are full of themselves today…and bat guano.

It will reduce the deficit—important to get inflation under control

I guess Varvel got the GOP memo on the theme of the day. Gee, with no discernable facts, and contrary to the CBO Varvel and the GOP continue their lies. By the way, where are the savings from the DJT tax reduction?

Economics is predictive. What do the experts say?

Huge benefits to the country/world and basically insignificant impact predicted economically. But keep scaring the sheeple; that’s ALL the right wingers can do.

Good one.

Encouraging the top .1 % to pay a smidgen more in taxes is not inflationary.

If Biden’s fore it I’m not, that’s the winning choice for the past 40 years.

Given the larger problem in price gouging, due to corporations knowing that many people will blame Biden or Democrats in general is the larger problem. Who knows. However, increasing interest rates has been the go to solution for quite some time and not something created by the Democrats or the other countries that are employing the same technique.

I’m just glad the dollar is still strong as it made my last trip to the UK much more doable, despite car rental fees and such being much higher than the last time I crossed The Pond.

Great ‘toon Gary. Only an anti American Democrat partisan can buy into the concept of spending the way out of inflation. Gotta wonder how Sinema and Manchin were bought off. Manchin for sure sold out his state’s interests.

Varvel squeezes into the L. Benson/S. Kelley ‘Klown Kar!’

Country/World be d@mned!

Can’t let them Dems have a win!

What is the Republican strategy? What has always not worked: cut taxes and spend more.

Yep. Raise taxes. Spend lots of money. That’ll stop inflation.

This isn’t even close.

Just Varvel continuing to pander to the willfully uneducated!

Yeah, Varvel, it’s such a good thing you had Sinema there to stop the interest tax carryover from being eliminated. That action does nothing for the citizens of the country or her state.

Now figure out who it benefited and celebrated loud and long when she succeeded. Of course, she did it out of the goodness of her heart.

How do taxes increase inflation?

D.C. Socialist Democrats. Never worked an honest day on a real job in their lives.

Racist Republicon grifters steal everything.

You can’t run a country without taxes. The rich paid 91% under Ike, now they pay nothing and the country is going to heII in a hand basket.

I wonder how long it will take before editorial cartoonists of a certain kidney notice that inflation in the US is falling, and fast. Or that the “tax increases” don’t affect non-billionaires and neighborhood stores & restaurants.

Change inflation to Republicans would be more accurate.
