Leave it to the (R)N(C) to, again, nibble around the edges w/ this “We can run this (illegal, BIG) govt *better*” mentality
- End the Fed (restore A1S10)
- Reduce govt to its LEGAL (Const.) size/scope
Your ‘Point1’ would auto-realize. It’ll be hard/brutal & even those on the (R) will likely cry, “HELP ME, Uncle Sugar”
One of my favorites quips.
Umm, Duh
Told some financial twerps that they were about to experience stagflation about 2 years ago
They were stumped - What’s that? they said
You’ll find out kiddies

Only way to let Trump win is to saddle him with a 1929 crash and depression—turn him into Herbert Hoover and use him to secure a new Democrat total power steal for 50 years.
Even when we are flat broke and we must sell our land to China to pay interest on debt—we will still send Billions to Ukraine and Israel. Rich citizens of the world must be well fed in their mansions.
Definitely Uniparty
I don’t think one man can overcome the system they’ve spent decades building - probably since GHWB if not before
“Only way to let Trump win is to saddle him with a 1929 crash and depression—turn him into Herbert Hoover and use him to secure a new Democrat total power steal for 50 years.”
Already the DS plan.

I got laughed at for saying this.
They won’t be laughing when their money’s no good any more................
Yeah, and our government is doing this on purpose.
We got rich rebuilding the world after world war ii. Once that was completed we started living on the national credit card just like a rich family where Dad has lost his job.
That is, this has been a very long time coming and, frankly, it took a lot longer than a lot of people thought it would. We are in for some very interesting times. And it’s not just the United states.
And it’s not a Democrat or a Republican problem. You can blame the politicians in all the countries for it but, ultimately, you need to blame the voters that elected them. Anyone who told the voters the truth had no chance of getting elected. It’s just the way it works. People vote their wallets.
This sort of thing is just more evidence for why Jesus died for us. And thank God it was followed up by his resurrection.

Remember Freepers, Barry says “Go Cloward-Piven” so make sure you are on board. And remember black Freepers, you need to get on the “I get to screw Kim Kardashian” list so she can find you when it’s your turn because she going to get to you eventually.
Amerika!
Every big problem America faces has its origin in Washington, D.C. If left to its own devices Washington believes the answer to every problem is more government, more spending, more regulation. The only solution to America’s problems is less Washington, much less. Less government has to be the mantra for every candidate, and they must be held to account to see that it’s adhered to. Washington has become a life threatening malignancy for America, and time is short if we are to save the patient.
Well I remember the stagflation of the late 1970s and early 1980s. We should be prepared for double digit interest rates and even higher prices at the grocery store and gas pump.
(From the article):" The U.S. economy is showing signs of stagflation as growth slumps down and prices continue to surge for average Americans,
experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
U.S. annual economic growth measured just 1.6% in the first quarter of 2024,
following a report of persistently high inflation in March of 3.5% year-over-year.
The combination of both low growth and high inflation, in conjunction with continuously high amounts of government spending and debt,
has led to signs of stagflation in the U.S. economy, which wreaked havoc on U.S. consumers throughout the 1970’s, according to experts who spoke to the DCNF.
“It’s not so much that we risk stagflation as we’re already there,” E.J. Antoni, a research fellow at the Heritage Foundation’s Grover M. Hermann Center for the Federal Budget, told the DCNF.
“We have basically pulled forward trillions of dollars of economic growth by borrowing from the future,
but that must be repaid at some point. And it is highly inefficient as well.”
”Stagflation is a unique economic phenomenon that involves slow growth, high unemployment, and elevated inflation and
is particularly difficult to address as solutions for one issue can exacerbate the others, according to Investopedia.(Emphasis Mine)
The most notable example of stagflation occurred in the 1970’s, after an oil crisis."
”The U.S. national debt climbed above $34 trillion for the first time at the start of 2024 and currently sits at nearly $34.6 trillion, according to the Treasury Department.
The national debt has increased by around $6.8 billion since President Joe Biden first took office in January 2021. “
”“Stagflation is the inevitable result of Bidenomics,” Michael Faulkender, chief economist at the America First Policy Institute, told the DCNF.
“When you massively increase spending, whether green subsidies or student loan forgiveness,
while simultaneously reducing the ability of the economy to produce because of all the regulatory restrictions being imposed,
you get reductions in growth with higher prices.
If Bidenomics continues, then we should expect stagflation to continue.” “
“.... America is “too big to fail”
The bigger they are, the harder they fall.
