I knew that many were continually making the absurd claim that everyone was worse off now than they were 2 years ago.
That's simply a stupid and inaccurate claim.
We were now up to at least 3 in this thread alone who admit to being better off now that they were 2 years ago.

The right wing narrative that the economic issues being faced today are a direct result of Biden's policies and that everyone is suffering and worse off is nothing more than propaganda. I use to think people were smart enough to see that.

I see that you're still deaf dumb & blind just like your cult leaders Joe & the Ho.

I suppose I’m in better shape too, thanks to our business being still robust. Nevertheless I am not inclined to overlook the utter incompetence of the Biden administration and how they are mismanaging the economy.

We're having record revenues this year but due to increased fuel, labor, insurance and other costs profits are not keeping up.

The majority are worse off and it is in large part to his inability to craft any plans whatsoever to fight something that everyone saw coming, except this administration. He has not only fought it, he has breathed more life into it.

Glad you are better off. I wouldn’t be surprised if you are a state or federal employee. Those people will be taken care of, as usual.

There is no right wing narrative needed to fight Joe. He is doing an A+ job of destroying D chances without any assistance.

3 out of the thousands that are on these boards daily isn't hard data. Two years ago many were doing business on zoom calls and the world was in chaos over a virus that was released by a bat in a wet market speaking of propaganda. Current environment you have stocks down and gas prices up, those are two benchmarks that give an idea of day to day doing better.

Thousands in this thread? I think not. And I'm sure it's more than 3.

You can't seriously believe that significantly higher gas prices, very soon to be high interest rates, significantly higher food and good prices, significantly higher energy prices, and shortages across the board has led to an improved situation for 99.9% of the population? Even the wealthy have been impacted by shortages regardless of whether or not they are immune to price increases for everyday goods and services. High wage earners are impacted by inflation and higher interest rates on loans, inflation is a tax on everyone especially the poor. Wage increases have not kept up with inflation so any net gains in higher wages were offset long ago by rising prices.

Exactly correct. I am up almost double digits in sales vs pre-COVID. Now 6.5% of that is bc of menu price increases. And we are taking on pricing lower then inflation as a strategic move. Top line looks great vs precovid. Bottom line not so much.

one of my retirement accounts (that I don't contribute to) is down over 11% since Biden took office. it is all in index funds so it reflects the market over that time period. Harder to suss out my other retirement account since I contribute monthly but it looks to be flat since Biden took office (gains of year 1 wiped out this year)

my salary increases have not kept up with inflation and that will be exacerbated this year

so all else being equal I'm financially worse off now than when I was when Biden took office.

Logistics costs are eating up a lot higher % of our revenue than it used to do.

So damn glad I’m retiring. Listening on all these calls with people stressing on supply chain issues, retaining competent talent, meeting production quantities, etc… looking at my retirement countdown calendar… whistling while I have the phone muted.

LOL at Mayor Pete blaming Abbot for the formula shortage and ignoring all the other factors including how the FDA of the administration he's in restricting flow through labeling requirements, not clearing Abbot to start up and the government levying big tariffs on imported formula.
