There was a thread on here awhile back about Biden yelling at people who worked for him. The purpose of the thread was to portray Biden as temperamental and out of control.

But, what you learned if you read the whole article and did some further research was the reason for all the shouting. You learned that Biden was yelling at people who weren’t doing their jobs, that had no command of the facts, that didn’t know the subject they were briefing him on. You learned that he asked probing questions and was intolerant of formulaic replies. That is the first reason I am convinced Biden is mentally sound,


During his presidency, Biden has met with foreign leaders many times. Yet, in all those times have any of those leaders expressed any concern or questions about Biden’s mental fitness? That’s the second reason I am convinced of Biden’s mental fitness.


Finally, there is Marjorie Taylor Greene, James Comer and so many other Republican idiots. They all tell me Biden is this great evil mastermind, running a vast criminal enterprise while at the same time being a senile fool.

You can’t have it both ways. And in this case, you can’t have it either way.

Those were all people returning to work from Covid furloughs, and that was allowed by the Governors of the states they themselves shut down, nothing to do with Joe Biden. Do you seriously believe all the lies and misinformation you pass on? Where do you get average wage up $3.66 an hour, that just strangely got zero Goggle hits just now on my end. Even if it is up that much it is from the McDonald's of the world having to over pay
to get people to flip burgers that were previously collecting free money.

Funny how you credit Biden with lowering inflation, while holding him blameless for causing it. Are you for real?
I’ve tried twice to copy the link about Average Hourly Wage. It just doesn’t work.

So, we will do it the hard way.

1. Go to bls.gov
2 scroll down to Latest Numbers, then Average Hourly Earnings.
3. Click on the icon to the far right. That will take you to a new page.
4.. scroll to the bottom of that page and click on Access to historical data for B tables.
5. Then click on table b8
6.from the list, click on total private /average hourly earnings.
7. Scroll down and click Retrieve Data and there you are.

So Biden was yelling at himself then? That's a sure sign of a problem with the ol' noggin'

I gave it a solid skim.


As for #1 cash benefits, that for the most part caused more problems than it fixed, what paid for it? My examples of problems with lower paid and part timers making more in free money than working, that also drove up wages needed to attract replacements. As for the people who got
stimulus checks they did not need, most people I know invested or saved them. Who does that put back to work?


#2. Care Jobs, all for it if a difference can be made, for all to benefit except those that cheat the system.


#3. Investing, seeing what the Recovery Act of 2009 did where I lived as far as infrastructure was concerned I will reserve judgement on most money spent on infrastructure until I see results. Unless of course the project is a "Wind Sale" not "Sail" , which I will predict will be rife with cost overruns and delays, and the end result will be nothing but unreliable, expensive power, that will never be more than a small percentage ran through the grid.


Our government usually draws the short end of the stick
when it comes to negotiating business deals. This could be for various reasons, and the government is usually taken to the cleaners. I wouldn't even want to sit down and research that subject, I bet it is a draw on whose watch was the worst between R's and D's. I heard a few through the grapevine that never made the news. It can be as simple as using government contracts for time and material work and billing hours used on commercial projects. There have been too many companies to count caught doing that, since WW1.



I am going to follow "Wind Sale" closely I cannot wait to hear all the propaganda. Funny how you say I follow propaganda, I know enough about
a wide range of subjects, I can either think for myself, or can gauge who to trust most of the time. You cannot say the same about yourself as you refuse to list subjects or endeavors where you consider yourself highly knowledgeable.


As for the author he appears to be a Stanford educated lefty in his early 40's. He implies there was a mass exodus in manufacturing to China in 2005, that could not be more false. The exodus has been slow and steady
and started a couple decades before 2005. No one at any level in the manufacturing field will agree with the author on that statement.


He discussed the effect of minimum wage and not once did he mention
anything negative about raising it, I don't think he understands the subject nor knows any of the good talking points.

There are three reasons for the recent inflationary surge.

1. Supply chain issues caused by a sudden surge in consumer demand and exacerbated by a shortage of product inventory, and workers. In other words, after months of being necessarily cooped up, people wanted to buy things. But things were not there for them to buy and no one was there to sell them.

2. Price gouging. This is well documented, particularly in the energy sector.

3. Spending due to Covid.

NECESSARY SPENDING DUE TO COVID. Without that spending, many people would have died, many people would have lost their homes, many would have gone hungry.


Despite the doomsayers, this inflation wasn’t nearly as bad as the last-the one in the late seventies/early eighties.This time we had inflation over 5% for 21 months. Back then it was nearly 10 years. Now we never reached 10% Inflation; then, it happened 45 times.

What you are describing is an attending physician. I knew exactly what you meant. I actually did some medical Googling, it does appear the official word someone like me was doing was assisting, as that is how it describes the duties of an orderly.


What kind of doctor were you and what put you on such a high horse? I only met one doctor in my life I thought was a complete A-hole, he acted like I was just coming to him to get high and told me to take aspirin. About a year later I got a two level spinal fusion from what I came to him for.


I knew doctors from my own troubles, helping others, and a few I was acquainted with through fitness centers. I met them through their wives.


Other than the nasty guy telling me to take aspirin, they all seemed pretty open and honest about the medical profession and treating patients. None of them come across like you do, you are special.

A lot of 3 caused 1. Three had good, three had bad, and caused problems. Of course you and your "sources" will not acknowledge any of the bad caused by money for nothing and just point toward the good. Also all the bad reports are coming from business and most Democrats see business owners as evil.


The federal weekly unemployment Covid bonus gave a lot of people money they had never seen before, many who were only working part time. A lot of lazy shiftless people, lets say a 25 year old still living at home, who can't keep a menial job now has a nice steady income for not working.
Those of the people who fill a lot of those supply chain jobs. I heard too many people say no one wants to work.

You only focus on 10% of the time Biden is in front of a camera and appears
to have normal cognitive ability for a senior citizen. That does happen as people with dementia can have variable mental function due to a host of factors. Also who the hell know what drugs he is given. I suppose you never notice when his eyes look glued wide open and he rarely blinks. My experience with elderly people with dementia is dated, so could be they are using drugs they did not 20 years ago.

Inflation rate may be lower, but my orange juice is still up 50% over the cost pre-Biden. Eggs have come down, but are running close to 100% higher pre Brandon. My cost of a kilowatt is up 9 cents according to my electric bill. Natural gas is up 40%. Bread is up a dollar.


Lets go Brandon

See that's just it... inflation is not down. Just the rate of increase. It's still climbing the Briben Administration is fudging the numbers. The cash register receipts don't lie nor does your bank balances.

What are the future energy plans where you live? I hope your state is not following in the footsteps of places like California. 9 cents a KWH, ouch. Mine went about 4 cents which was about a 25% increase but has trickled back down just up about 2 cents or about 12% up from pre Biden. It seems what effects the bill is the cost of power that is sourced outside the local nuclear plant. I went almost 10 years here paying $.117 per KWH. Even though your natural gas is up 40% I am sure it is still cheaper to use for central heat, cooking and hot water than electricity. I am all electric and it sucks, hard on the wallet in winter time. I didn't buy any heating oil this winter, last year it was up 25%. Winter was milder than normal and the electric heaters were good enough to keep the shop warm.



I think eggs are almost down to pre Biden, I don't buy OJ or bread. Fruit, vegetables and meat have not came down much from peaks.

I am still waiting for a Democrat homer to link me to a PDF of the list of the exact items used to track inflation. I hear claims there are 80,000 of them.
I will probably see them the same time I see photographic proof of sea level rise. That will be never.
