At an increase of one dollar, 20% is twenty cents. Ya can't count the original price. Oh yeah, I forgot , right wing math.

At a cost of $4 a gallon a president making the correct choices to effect pricing by 10-20% lowers the cost by, oh my, 40-80 cents a gallon. Oops. Math.

But we can go the other way. A couple years ago, with mean tweets, my local was $1.59 and now is $3.79, up $2.20. So ok, 22-44 cents higher than otherwise. Perhaps more. Either way, bring back mean tweets and mean tweet gas pricing.

Speaking of bad Biden decisions that affect inflationary pressures, the senile POTUS - at the urging of economic genius Elizabeth Warren - is considering forgiveness of a significant amount of student loans in addition to what he's already done. This reeks of desperation to salvage the upcoming mid-term election. The Democrats seriously think that working Americans who pay their bills and taxes are supposed to pick up the tab for unemployed current and former graduate students who majored in Urban Studies and drive Uber when they feel like it.

"The move could affect more than 43 million borrowers who hold more than $1.6 trillion in federal student loan debt, the second-largest debt held by Americans, behind mortgages."

Well it's just paper because the Democrats think they can print a endless amount.....without gold or silver backing it.

The United States has been off the gold standard since Aug 15, 1971.
Since that time there has been 8 presidents, 4 Republicans and 4 Democrats. All have deficit spent except one (Clinton claimed to balance the budget, but even that remains controversial).

Please explain your non-sensical statement, unless you can't.

In other words they all have over spent the budget. If we do it its jail time but with our government it's just normal business.

That's another story in which I will agree with you, but to make the statement implying it's because it's the Democrats doing it is misleading since the Republicans do the same when they are in power.
