    9 Million Millennials Moved Back In With Their Parents This Year

    [​IMG]

    'About 15% of millennial renters say that they’re spending more than half their after-tax income on rent.'

    Biden/Dem Inflation.

    [​IMG]

    Falling Real Wages.

    2024 is an important election. Hopefully Biden and the Dems can screw things up a little less in the coming two years.

    I'd like to see these young people return to the level of self-sufficiency they were enjoying under Trump/Pence.

    If Biden/Dems would just quit throttling the energy sector I think we could make a lot of headway on inflation and returning to real wage growth.

    The Dems don't care for another 18-months. Then they will spew their lies and convince 81,000,000 voters that they are doing everything they can. Elections have consequences and we just had another with great consequences and the American people just don't understand why they cannot make ends meet.

    What brings this all home, is these same idiots will vote for the same thing over and over.
    Its no different than Liberals fleeing California to Texas because of taxes, property values, and disappearing middle class, then votes for the same things again.
    Wokeness is a sickness that has indoctrinated these idiots. They should come up with a vaccination for woke brain cells.

    Real Wages have more to do with capitalism than policy goals. Private employers do not give out wage increases. If you are lucky and work for a major firm, you might get qualified stock options as the bonus instead of cold hard cash, the way it was in the 1970s and 80s. But a real wage means that any wage increase is not keeping up with inflation and we have had this problem for over 5 decades now.

    Then you have student debt and the other expenditures that minerals use their money for in their instant gratification. They may be poor, but the computer and stereo systems are probably top-of-the-line quality that costs a couple of grand totals, along with all the games they are spending on.

    In other cultures, like Japan, for instance, staying home after graduating from college while working is considered a norm.

    Things are certainly changing. These fleeing Californians need to remember that they are refugees not missionaries.

    Fake News. REAL means Adjusted for inflation.
    Fake News - Wildly out of control inflation occurred after Biden and the Dems took over.

    Biden/Dems Wholesale Inflation up 31.3% in less than two years.

    [​IMG]

    UNEXPECTEDLY! Price of Wholesale Goods Jumps More Than Expected as Inflation Persists.
    The serfs shouldn't complain about Biden/Dems reducing their living standards.

    So is not believing in mutli genders
    So is having the highest number of single mothers in the work force because they can't marry the government for money
    So is women being more impacted or constrained by social expectations, stigmas and norms of behavior.
    So is women facing discrimination in education and employment opportunities, as well as minimal political representation
    Same-sex marriage is not legal in Japan.
    Japan doesn't allow border jumpers

    So are you promoting Japanese culture for the US or just cherry picking one thing?

    Again, do you know what inflation is? All inflation means is that the demand for goods outweigh the supply of goods. And since no executive branch controls what Suppliers do, this is capitalism, pure and simple.

    As for the rest of your post, that is pure BS and shows you only post fake news. If you think Biden or any other executive branch controls the prices, think again, they don't and never have and never will. That is called a command economy, which we do not have nor ever had no matter who was President.

    LOL, some of what you are claiming is half-truths here.

    Highest numbers of single mothers are located in the United States, not Japan. And we have a high divorce rate, nearly 50% overall, higher for second marriages or people who are young and married less than 5 years. The highest adoption rate in the world is in the US and the second highest in Japan. We adopt young, while Japan adopts full-grown adults. And they will adopt only male so that they will have an heir to their name, especially among the most important business leaders in the country.

    Women are discriminated against in education and employment all over the world. Japan is still a patriarchial society, although not as much as in the Edo period or even the early and mid-Showa periods. But most Asian societies are like this based on culture, not politics.

    Yes, same-sex marriage is banned in Japan, but that is in Japan, not here. But ironically, being gay is now accepted in Japanese culture, to some extent and there are "gay bars" there, along with Maid Cafes, Love Motels, etc. And the Japanese take cleanliness to the next level. Public bathrooms are open when unoccupied, but become clouded when in use.

    Japan's immigration policy does have humanitarian relief methods in place, but it is rarely used. Most migrants do not go to japan because of the language and cultural difficulties. Ah hell, even Americans who can speak fluent Japanese can have a very difficult time adjusting to Japanese Culture, which can be very unforgiving in you are living there. US Soldiers stationed in Okinawa and Yokohama are given extensive lectures and detailed pamphlets on what to do and especially not to do when on leave in Japan,.

    Fake News. Throttling energy production, paying workers NOT to produce goods and services? Remember when Grandpa Felony Fingers creepy whispered that it would increase real wages? Surprise! It CRUSHED THEM.
    Fake News. It does matter who is president and who controls congress. You guys got power and promptly destroyed the prosperity of the American People. As you passed the $T Red Ink Orgies you claimed that you were powerfully helping, now that your 'help' has destroyed everything, you claim that "aschully, we're helpless!"

    False, everything I posted is 100% accurate. If you could dispute them, you would have. But you can't.

    DEFLECTION
    I didn't claim the highest number of single mothers. I claimed the highest number of single mothers in the work force which they are the highest in the world

    DEFLECTION
    Has nothing to do with what I posted

    I was comparing Japan to the US
    But you knew that

    I stated they don't allow border jumpers

    Let me know if you want to dispute something I posted.
    Thanks

    Does it ever get exhausting making excuses for this failure of an administration?

    Also, the R's are fighting student debt cancellation almost like they care about something.

    They do..... financial and personal suffering....

    Biden is in the rare no-lose situation for a politician with that one...

    Who sets productions schedules Zorro? Government or private business? If production does not produce the required resources while demand is continuing to go up, then you will have inflation. And that is private business and called in inflation. All you are doing is trying to blame someone who does not control the economy at all. For wages, private employers set the wages, not government. We have minimum wage, but most minimum wages do not support a family of our in most states. And I am not arguing about increasing minimum wage here, but making the point that private employers set the wage and private employers will only increase the wage up to the amount of inflation.


    You say one thing and then go against it. First, you say it does not matter who is president and then you start with the usual conspiracy, brain-dead theories you keep spouting. We have had real wage stagnation for 5 decades. That is an incontrovertible fact. We have had a rising cost of living year after year after year after year. Yes, 2022 has high inflation, but the government had very little to do with it, at least spending. And as far as prosperity, we are prosperous, we just like to spend all of our own money and then complain why we don't have any at the same time. And that is the American way now because some people want everything handed to them on a silver platter.

    Fake News. Inflation is a lack of supply of goods and services. Biden and the Dems promised to strangle energy supplies and drive up prices, and they did. Diesel is UP over 84% during the Biden era. Everything in the economy moves on fuel, so the Biden/Dem price spike compounds throughout the economy. You know it, I know it, the American People know it.
    That's an outright fabrication. Support it, or retract it, and apologize.
    It's fake news. REAL income was up over 30% at the Trumpian Peak from the 1984 baseline. The steepest rate of climb during the Trumpian era of plenty and prosperity, of course.

    More fake news. Cost of living has DROPPED in 4 of the last 10 years. But man did it take off during the era of Biden/Dem $Trillion boon doggles and deliberate energy stranglation.

    [​IMG]
    Sure, Biden and the Dems completely screw up, but, it's the Serf's fault for complaining over the reduction of their living standards, why, "they should be satisfied with less!"

    Rigging the election for Biden certainly wrecked the economy.

    But, the Rich Privileged Gentry are fine with it.

    2) Sounds Good...

    This is the generational spawned by guilty parents who never discipline their brats, and coddled them through life’s challenges.
    Guess what? No one is hiring artists? Or paying waitresses enough to live dependently in a 4br house with their $400 cat and their Save-the-World Tesla.
    May I suggest learning Spanish and moving to Mexico?

    The irony about all this is that if you can find an actually life long partner, someone you pick for the RIGHT reasons...dual income can insure your ahead of the curve, can afford your own home and raise children. But milenials don't want traditional marrages. They just want hook up cultures and to collect cats.

    When they hit their 40's/50's ...you are going to see some seriously sad and regretful, lonely people.

    Technically you are right. Biden actually influenced the price of inputs by rigging the transportation markets to save everyone from Global Change else but Americans.
    And you are right that businesses could have sold at the lower prices and not raised prices.
    Yes. You are right. They could have chosen to go bankrupt by not being able to cover their cost.

    NEWSFLASH:
    At the end of the Day it all boils down to THIS:
    1) At a place like PF which is a Hyper-Partisan Message Board (at which Trump/MAGA Types are Exponentially Over-Represented as opposed to how often they actually appear in the Real World)--This "Hunter Laptop BS" is heavily hyped.
    (And, PF's RW Squad Makes Sure that Every Bit of "Hey Lookie, Left Bad!" BS going around the Internet from the RW Meme/Copypasta Brigade Gets Posted at PF)...
    2) But, in the Real World, to well over 3/4ths of America (those who live outside the Trump/MAGA/Alex Jones Bubble) this "Hunter Laptop BS" is less relevant than a Non-Existent Blip on the Radar...
