    Majority Say They Are Worse Off Financially Under Biden Admin,

    [​IMG]


    'impact of inflation on voters’ economic outlook'

    '70 percent of voters said Biden’s economic policies had either hurt the US economy or had no impact, including 33 percent who said the president’s policies had “hurt the economy a lot”. Only 26 per cent said his policies had helped.'

    82% were fed up with the price increases of inflation. 75% see rising prices as the single biggest threat to the economy. While 65% of Americans have cut back on spending, Bribed Joe has threatened to shut down the Federal Government if the GOP asks the Federal Government to cut spending, at all. Over half have had to cut back on food and real necessities, but Bribed Joes says the Federal government will not cut back, at all! More than half had no expectation that Bribed Joe would improve the economy.

    Some theorize that this is why polls show that Bribed Joe would lose to Trump in a general election match-up. Would that be surprising? Normally you can't really be sure what both candidates would do if elected. In this case, we can compare records. Folks were clearly better off while The Trumpster was president, enjoy peace, prosperity, rising wages, stable prices and improving living standards. Under Bribed Joe, it's the opposite. Please discuss.

    I work in the oilfield and made the most money I've ever made in my life under Trump. Now, under Biden, I'm making less than half of what I was.

    the real problem is the Republican run FED trying to cool the Biden economy with raising the interest Rates so high

    under Trump, the same Republican run FED dumped trillions into the economy to keep it afloat and talked negative interest rates

    all this combined with the global supply issues, not gonna turn out good

    so oil companies are making more and they paying you less, that is sad

    probably cause they lost so much during Covid under Trump, they're trying to make it back

    You aren't alone. Only 1 in 7 can say that things have improved for them since Bribed Joe started all this wild debt spending that has left the rest of us impoverished.

    The oilfield is not your standard 9 to 5 hourly job. Yes, we are hourly or salary if you are a supervisor, but you get paid according to the hours you work or how many jobs you catch if you are on salary. Well, if the work isn't there and you don't have any jobs calling in, guess what? You don't make anywhere near as much. There are 168 hours in a week, and I used to work every single one of them under Trump because we were drilling left and right.

    Republicans said the people had too much money, that was how they justified ending covid support and raising interest rates.... which is it?

    Bribed Joe was handsomely bribed by Ukraine and he works diligently for them. Right now, the House has approved the $14B for Israel, with offsets so that it doesn't run the debt up, and Bribed Joe claims he will refuse it if he doesn't get close to 7 TIMES as much for Ukraine, including money to fund the retirement pensions of UKRAINIAN government employees!

    Maybe the reason that Bribed Joe doesn't work as hard for us, as he does for Ukraine, is simply because we have bribed him properly.

    COVID support checks never should have been a thing in the first place. Any time the government is handing out "free money" there will be fraud, as we have already seen with the recent government admission of billions in COVID relief fraud.

    During the height of COVID, I knew people that were making more on unemployment and COVID relief than they were when they were working. That's why it was ended.

    I'm calling BS.
    The oil industry is MUCH better under Biden. Trump was a disaster for the oil industry.

    2019/2020 I made $180,000. This year I barely hit $75,000 so I beg to differ, and it's not getting any better...

    Total nonsense. More oil companies went bankrupt under Trump then ever.

    Maybe you don't have a clue of what you're talking about.
    Yeah, I'm going with that.

    Right, people would have been much better off by not getting covid checks.
    Get a clue. Please.

    Given the posts you have given so far you have zero credibility.
    So you made 180K during covid. Right.

    The fiscal year of 2019 ending in 2020. As in when I got my taxes done in February of 2020 for the 2019 year. Yes, I cleared $180,000 that year. Haven't even come remotely close to that since.

    Helping people is one thing. Nothing wrong with that. But certain people were using it as a crutch and an excuse not to go back to work. But of course you knew that...
