The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
Sure...everyone knows that the economy-destroying climate policies of the progressive, humanity-hating segment of the Democrat party that now controls the administration are awful for inflation. But where has inflation struck the hardest? And what part of America is most affected by it?
Food and the working poor. The attack ads write themselves, and they would resonate with huge swaths of Americans, because food prices are completely out of control, and getting worse. There is a significant chunk of the electorate that is being injured by the Biden/Obama junta's climate insanity, and they are ripe for the picking by an intelligent and proactive political opponent.
And it's not difficult to explain, even to a detached and disinterested audience. Fuel costs have doubled, and agriculture is a heavy user via farming machinery, fertilizer, and transportation. Labor costs are similarly out of control, and it is obvious that agriculture requires massive labor inputs, particularly in processing.
Historically High Food Prices Will Only Worsen If A Democrat Wins The White House
Americans have already spent a record-high portion of their disposable income on food since Joe Biden became president. A new study by the Buckeye Institute warns that food will become even more unaffordable if Biden or any other Democrat wins the White House this November due to their destructive climate policies.
Oops! Did I say "intelligent and proactive political opponent?" Silly me. The current iteration of the feckless Republican party is far more interested in the graft bonanza of Ukraine to worry about those pesky little potential voters who are struggling with their food budgets and would dearly love an alternative to the smug, sclerotic and thoroughly debunked policies of the Democrat elite. But they won't get one anytime soon, because the Republican elite is indistinguishable from the Democrats...pushing unpopular policies that benefit their bank accounts and their masters in China, Ukraine and defense contractors (Crenshaw, McConnell, and Graham for a start!).
Too bad, because the idea of a new generation of Democrat voters who cross over to vote Republican is a very doable thing. Imagine a Reagan Democrat revolution in 2024.
Yeah...I'm not holding my breath...there is far too much graft available, and besides, those working class voters are icky!
