An interesting inflation note:
“ Isidore writes: Presidents Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter both tried and failed to bring prices under control. Ford's efforts included a "Whip Inflation Now" or WIN campaign, complete with shiny red buttons, that did little to help with prices. Inflation hit 12.2% in late 1974, soon after he took office, nearly twice the annual pace of increase through November of last year.”

Funny thing is very little of what’s going on is Biden’s doing, and the article lays out the facts clearly, facts we’ve known for months now. Covid is the main reason as it has affected every aspect of life globally. And Biden can’t fix covid, he can only mitigate its effects to a degree, but cretins are fighting a political war and are dying doing it. It’s not here only either. Europe has its own share of cretins. As for voting rights, well, if we allow legislatures to annul elections, we’re fkd. That’s what I know. No ifs ands or buts.
