Maher: Food Is up a Lot Under Biden, But People Are Ignorant About Inflation Because We Didn’t Have It for 20 Years
Breitbart ^ | 03/23/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 03/23/2024 7:41:19 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher stated that while food prices have gone up significantly under President Joe Biden, 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Trump is doing better among younger voters because he lies and “when you don’t know anything, you can’t compare it to what’s said.” And “we were just kind of lucky for 20 years, and there wasn’t much inflation. So, maybe you’ve never lived in a time when there was inflation. So, you think, oh, Trump, no inflation, Biden, inflation, me vote Trump.”

Yes, like most supercilious fascist elites, Maher knows that The People are Ignorant.

We do not really have inflation. as if Maher has control of a Jedi Mind Trick....Pizmo! No inflation.Move along now you ignoramuses

We have a petroleum based economy.

We have petroleum.

And the idiot fascists have made sure we do not have access to it.

That means we will turf the whole lot of them. That's not ignorant. That's really smart.

So what is your point, Bill?

People are generally also ignorant about polio and smallpox - because as a society we’ve done things to prevent them, as we should be doing with inflation. Printing and spending money we don’t have is akin to stopping vaccination programs and disease surveillance programs.

No. Ann's boy toy never was anything but a commie mouthpiece for the DNC. He occasionally would just say something slightly less insane then his counterparts and the republicans with abused child syndrome would rush to embrace him.

You need to stop doing that. It is not good for your mental health.

BRAIN DEAD. I remember the STAGFLATION FROM 1973-1982 WHEN WE GOT RONALD REAGAN AND REAGANOMICS. IDIOTS NIXON AND FORD. HAD NO ECONOMIC PLANS. TRUMPNOMICS WAS A FORM OF REAGAN’S, FOR ALL.

If by smart people he means Democrats he is probably correct.

In the past twenty years they have often said that inflation is a good thing

food prices are getting frightening
both grocer and restaurant

frighteningly high and apparently still going up even more

people are lining up for free food lines all over town (and there are getting to be more and more free food lines... at churches, at public schools, and a few at private buildings too now). some let you select your own items from a very nice assortment all laid out on tables... most give you a couple of sacks or boxes of assorted free grocery items pre-packaged to facilitate quick distribution direct to your car in drive-through lines...fastest way possible they have it all packed up for you and then they just toss it at ya as you drive by

soon maybe they’ll deliver it directly to your front door using drones?
but the thing is, the Biden fiscal and monetary policies are so damaging that more and more people need free groceries

will they vote for DT because his economic policies work so much better?
or will they vote for JB because his administration is giving away the free food?

logic says DT but .... I’m not so sure...does a dog bite the hand that feeds him? Biden (while his policies have caused the mass-scale hunger in the first place) is doing the free feeding.........and so........?

What makes this wannabe intellect an expert on anything? The man has an ego the size of a semi, but no real knowledge to substantiate anything. If you look at the price of everything now, that is all you need to know about inflation. Besides, most young folks under the age of 20 don’t vote all that much. It’s the moms and pops who pay, and know damn well what inflation is. Starts with buying energy instead of selling it, which is what we did just a few years ago when we were energy independent.

Yeah. Maher was doing okay for a while there. He was sounding less like a stupid woke “progressive”, and more like a classical liberal.

Maybe the latest polls scared one of his bosses. And so Maher was given his marching orders. Go back to being a mindless Democrat mouthpiece, or else.

Maher is the one who doesn’t know anything.

If we didn’t have significant inflation for — it’s more like 40 years — why wouldn’t you blame the guy who gave us inflation? If you do remember inflation and all the trouble it took to wring it out of the economy isn’t that even more reason not to vote for Biden?

Two anecdotes for you Bill - 3 years ago. I would get a burrito and coffee at my favorite Wawa for under $7. this week it was $10 and change. The other day I went to the Mexican restaurant and got a small order of queso cheese and chips used to be six bucks. Now it’s 11.

Nobody pays attention to Maher or knows what he says except people who already agree with him and watch his show and people who read about what he says here and disagree with him. He has about zero influence on the country.

“ Bill went back to being full retard.”

Yeah, I noticed that. He was starting to act rational for awhile. Maybe he’s off his meds.
