    There is something all Liberals should know. Inflation creates income inequality. Inflation devalues money and wages, so if inflation is increasing at 5% per year, your wages need to increase at 5% per year for you to stay at the same wealth level. Hard assets are less affected by inflation than just money, so those that own hard assets aren't subject to inflation. So inflation will stratify society into basically three groups. One, those that work or only possess money will get poorer every day, as inflation goes up, the value of their money goes down. Two those that own property, that is own not rent or least, will have some protection against inflation, the more property you own the more protection you will have. Three, those that own a lot of property as well as durable commodities are not only protected from inflation, but can gain wealth from inflation, so they are greatly benefited by inflation as their property increases in value while their debt decreases in value. So the three groups will be the poor who will constantly get poorer, the middle class who will roughly stay the same as long as they continue to work at staying middle class, and the rich who will get richer simply by being rich. So the more money the Democrats print and distribute into the economy, the faster and greater income inequality gets. Giving money to the poor creates income inequality.

    When (not if, when) Biden gets the US into a war with China, it should only be people who's vote went to Biden who fight it.

    Yes he has! A LOT!

    Good old days- gas was $1.78 a gallon, with an annual average of $1.92.

    WAIT- that was 7 months ago- under Trump.

    So YES- Biden has accomplished it now costs more to drive our vehicles.

    Ground beef was here in the northern midwest, 93% lean, 7 months ago, $4.27 a pound.
    Now- $5.36 a pound.
    Stalk of celery, 7 months ago $1.28 - now- $2.19 a stalk.
    Milk, 1 gallon, 7 months ago, $2.29 - now- $ 3.19.

    So YES- Biden has accomplished something-he is systematically making the poor, poorer, and bent on
    making the middle class, poor.

    His decree to expand the leg up that was supposed to help American workers that was given a year ago,
    is now a reason to do make 'earn' more money by sitting on your butt at home doing nothing but collect
    your government check, than to actually go out and work for a living, thereby creating a laborer shortage
    in the likes that the USA has never seen in history.

    So YES- Biden has accomplished something, he has convinced those who believe the government will
    take care of them to fully believe that is possible.

    YES! Biden has accomplished the liberals goal in starting to make America dependent on others instead
    of us leading the world.

    There are not enough characters to type to continue to expose the liberal agenda of destroying the
    USA that he and his cronies have started.

    So YES! Biden has accomplished EXACTLY what he wanted to do.

    The problem with Universal Basic Income is that if no-one is working building stuff, there will be no stuff to buy, no matter how much money you have. The only way for UBI to work, is to make everyone else a slave, building the stuff you want to buy.

    Basically the problem with UBI is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

    I think more is paid to people using Welfare.

    If we gave them UBI (for those 18 and up), instead of welfare, housing, food stamps, etc.. and then tell them, "If you need more, then get a job." Then they would be not only working, but also reducing burden on the tax payer. People start doing what they need to do when pushed into it.

    Or people decide they don't want to work, because frankly, most work sucks. There are entire generations who at this very moment would rather collect unemployment from the federal government than get a job. With UBI, there'd be no incentive to work. They'd just protest to raise the amount they already get, and the government would cave.
