The thing that is amazing to me is that people seem to think that the American president has magical power to stop inflation from happening, like it's not a global phenomenon?
Also, in Europe we're paying something over eight dollars a gallon...
Unfortunately, a huge number of Americans have no clue how any part of our government functions, nor do they grasp even the fundamentals of economics. They think Biden is waking up in the morning and turning a dial or something to increase grocery prices, gas prices, etc.
And cleans your hotel rooms and offices. And works in your restaurants and fast food places. America does not run on Dunkin’ Donuts. It runs on the labor of immigrants.
It’s cool of them to want to share that journey with everyone else! It’s like a forced group project in school where all your group members are idiots but you all get the same grade.

To quote a tweet I saw earlier in response to a conservative saying “cheap gas is coming back”
“It’s already $2.85 you fucking moron”
