"Bidenomics": Symbolism Over Substance

Besides the uptick of the stock market, which many have said was a result of the expectation of the Federal Reserve lowering interest rates to give Sleepy Joe a gift to his reelection campaign, but for the "Average Joe" who is living paycheck to paycheck, and trying to keep his head financially above water, he doesn't think "Bidenomics" as that what Biden is touting as a big success, is really a stinkeroo.

This dour economic situation that most of us face today, started when Biden was sworn into office as president. Starting right out of the starting gate of his Administration, Sleepy Joe Biden canceled many of Trump's executive orders that were working just fine, just before COVID hit the United States. These foolish decisions by Biden included the closing of the Keystone Pipeline and halting more energy exploration on government property thus setting off price increases for energy across the country, and as a result, inflated the the prices on the necessities of life (food, shelter, and clothing) which has outpaced employee pay, thereby putting the middle class and working poor at a disadvantage in trying to make ends meet; in addition, he reinstated the Paris Climate Accords and declared a 'War" on fossil fuels thereby causing our transportation costs to rise rapidly; he also indicated he was going to institute more regulations on businesses; and he went about spending taxpayer money like a "drunken sailor (my apology to drunken sailors). 

Even though inflation has subsided a bit, the prior increases are still in effect and are unlikely going to come down soon (rents and mortgage rates etc.).

We are now over $34 trillion in debt with little expectation of being able to lower our debt obligations in the near future. With the onerous influx of over 8 million illegal migrants into our country along with the estimated 2 million "gotaways", it has exasperated our quest to become fiscally prudent as we are now taking on the responsibility of taking care of and supporting them around the country, especially in sanctuary states and cities run by Democrats. As we approach the November election, this immigration problem will be front and center as the campaigns face the electorate. As the influx of illegal migrants (and deadly drugs) has mushroomed under Biden's policies, it will be a major hurdle for the Democrats to overcome. Many minority communities feel that they have "been thrown under the bus" in favor of the illegal aliens getting the "goodies" they expected to have received as legal citizens.

So, when Biden and his cronies, pass out their "rose colored glasses" in touting "Bidenomics", don't be fooled by the "happy talk" by Biden which doesn't come close to reality. Most reputable polling companies show that about 70% of the public thinks that our economy is not going in the right direction. In the past, it has been shown that the people "vote their pocketbooks", which is a bad omen for Biden and the Democrats running in Congressional and Senate races, and who have supported the principles of "Bidenomics”.

The electorate in November 2024 must use their common sense, and vote for their economic self-interest by electing those that brought you that great economy 4 years ago, before COVID hit, and it was not Sleepy Joe Biden and the Democrats. Let's bury "Bidenomics" and place it on the scrap heap of history, because it was all .symbolism over substance, with a dash of B.S thrown in from the very beginning.
