November 10, 2022 — 'Inflation Reduction Act'    — Bidenflation    — Blog    — Facts Are Stubborn Things    — Press Releases    — Select Revenue Measures    — Talking Points   

Although more than 70 percent of Americans believe the country is headed in the wrong direction and a new report shows inflation continues to rage, President Biden has vowedto stay the course, saying: “I’m not going to change anything in any fundamental way.”

That’s terrible news for American families who aren’t sure how they’ll keep the lights on this winter, or who are taking on debt, skipping meals, and delaying retirement to make ends meet.

Meanwhile, the White House has said they’re not preparing for a recession, even though forecasters have 100 percent certainty a cruel Biden recession will take hold within the next year.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Americans are bracing for a cruel Biden recession. 

  • The latest report shows inflation is up 7.7 percent from the previous year, and real wages have failed to rise 17 of the last 21 months.
  • With a majority of workers stressed about their finances amid rising prices, more than 20 percent report they’ve tapped into emergency savings to pay their bills, while another 20 percent report working extra hours.
  • More than half of top job creators warned inflation had yet to reach its peak. Experts at Visa are predicting inflation will last well into the next year
  • A Biden recession could exacerbate the suffering of minority Americans struggling with skyrocketing prices.
