Biden: There’s ‘Corporate Greed,’ But People ‘Have the Money to Spend’ on More Expensive Groceries
Breitbart ^ | 05/08/2024 | Ian hatchett

During an interview aired on Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” President Joe Biden stated that while “corporate greed” has caused an increase in the amount of money people have to spend on groceries and people feel real pain from the cost of groceries and food and he’s angry people have to spend more, “if you take a look at what people have, they have the money to spend.”

Host Erin Burnett said, “[T]here’s real pain. Grocery prices are up 30% — more than 30% since the beginning of the pandemic, and people are spending more on food and groceries than they have at any time really in the past 30 years. That’s a real day-to-day pain that people –.”

“Corporate greed” is always the bogeyman for pols causing inflation. Inflation is only and always caused by government monetary policy.

I have to settle down. I used to consider him a nerdy pawn but I have grown intensely angry at his destruction of the American Way of Life since then.

Now I have to remember my rages at the news clips of him endanger my own life by stroke or heart attack leaving me half dead.

That explanation probably makes sense to certain deranged or low-IQ individuals, but not to sentient people who live the real world.

Corporate greed in the Military Industrial Complex is why they are inflating the currency.

Blaming the grocery stores for higher prices will encourage local "direct action" and get grocery stores burned down in certain neighborhoods.

It seems like a stupid lie, but Obama knows his people and he is not stupid. The intelligence or lack of it by the figurehead is of no importance.

I wish I were so rich that inflation would mean nothing more than going to Portugal for two weeks on vacation because it costs less than the South of France.

I’m not.

$6.99 for the 2020 era Miracle Whip that cost $3.29 bothers me.

When you spend $85 on three plastic bags of groceries, yes the voters will kind of notice that.

There’s only so much greed a company can have when there is competition.

It’s difficult often to meet a price point when developing a product, but Biden wouldn’t know that because he’s never developed, made or marketed any product in his life (other than having Hunter market the family name for access to FedGov).

The average net profit in a grocery chain store is 1% to 3%.
Biden is a liar.

He’s not worth an iota of your stress. I too was angry as all get out at this imbecile and the demonic personages directing his acts behind the scenes, then came down with several health issues. The last straw was an outbreak of shingles on my nose. Doctor told me it was caused by stress and to calm down.
Best to ignore him. I know, it’s hard when you look around at our crumbling nation and lost people, but this too shall pass.

I have to say you’re basically a loser. You had to pay for those three grocery bags $85. People crossing our borders get several hundred dollars each in snap cards. Is that fair?

Bidensky doesn’t have to pay rent or worry about paying for food, so the economy is terrific. Why is everyone complaining? You’re just imagining things. Snort, snort.

Well Joe, it’s those more expensive groceries that keep them from buying from buying the other things. Too bad you can’t find a way to make those more expensive groceries less expensive. Because unlike oil there is no national reserve from which to pull form is there poor child.

And he will be reelected anyway. Mark my words. It will happen. No reason other than I sense it.
