Trump 47: A Civilizational Fork in the Road?

[PersonalFavors]

Anyone who says "New Cars Suck Now" probably wasn't old enough to buy a car in the late 1970s/early 1980s, the true nadir of car quality.

I had a couple made in the late 1970s. One great car, one mostly lemon. I see the American car industry peaking in the 1990s. Newer cars, like past 2015, have so many model and year specific parts, and need so much proprietary equipment and software to maintain them, that they may all be junk before they become cheap enough for me to buy them.

More universal parts on cars will become necessary as supply chains break down and driving becomes less affordable. The CAFE standards will need at least editing and rewriting to stop pushing carmakers towards huge low mpg vehicles.

70s' and 80's I had some good, really good and one really bad.
At some point I bough a 99 Cadillac STS. Oh my the favorite car. Only problem is GM built it to break. Constant electrical issues. Had to visit the shop monthly it seemed. Ultimately the "North Star" engine block was not a block. It was two halves welded together. The half seal leak finally killed it at 144,000miles.
Now I have 178k on an '09 Infinity that has yet to have more than tires brakes and oil changes. Amazing.

What's your economic theory, then? What caused the inflation? No Pub ever mentioned that on the campaign trail last year. Trump promised to do something about inflation but he never said what, and now it's obvious he doesn't have a clue.

It's no theory. Joe Biden is responsible for the present inflation rate.

And so far anything the President does do to reduce inflation the obstructionist democrats file a court case to prevent it.

This hasn’t happened. Donald Trump hasn’t done anything to reduce inflation.

He is waiting for the courts to release the obstructionist rulings so he can do something about it. If you believe that is true stop suing him every time he takes action.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This coming from a guy who thought the War of 1812 was America protecting Canada. Sorry bub, you're so fucking dumb, your opinion is worthless.

How? What did he do?

Cutting federal expenditures will do nothing to reduce inflation.

Why would that happen?

Nothing Trump has even tried to do or talked about doing would reduce inflation.

Enacting tariff walls and barriers to free trade will NOT reduce inflation.

It will in fact cause it.

So of course the "obstructionist" democrats are trying to stop it!

Maybe you should finish high school and learn some basic economics. If you had you would realize this. After all, from a guy who claims to be an attorney, you really don't come across as very educated, do you.

And basic fact, NO, Biden did not cause the inflation. Worldwide inflation- not just in the US- resulted from the pandemic of 2020. And by giving away free stimulus checks- increasing the money supply- prices rose. Who gave away the stimulus checks? Lets think back to who was still in office during the summer and fall of 2020. (hint: Not Biden.) It was good intention, I will give him that but... it caused inflation.

Biden first increased the cost of energy exponentially. Inflation rose. Poured 8 trillion onto the economy and the prices rose even higher.
Inflation is under 3% now but prices may never come down.

And, ironically, the Democrats AND the Republicans had originally agreed to a SMALLER Covid stimulus check under DonOld’s first FAILED administration, but DonOld wanted to buy votes for his second campaign, so DonOld demanded a $2,000 stimmy check, rather than the $600 dollar per person check that had originally been negotiated.



Also:

It’s hilarious that the dumbfuck MAGAts "think" DonOld had nothing to do with inflation, when food, housing, education, and insurance prices were already spiking while that orange POS was in office the first time.
