    You could get 18 percent on a CD in 1979

    For some reason voters still booted Carter out

    Money makes money regardless

    But the investor class is small. People that feel inflation are a large group

    Democrats were the party of the working man once upon a time

    Now you just suck if you aren't scoring big

    So you’re taking your 2020 net worth and 2020 prices then?

    I keep bringing this up because those are not mutually exclusive things they are connected.

    My individual financial state is irrelevant

    Try to keep up

    2019 was better than now. And voters know it

    I’m just curious. If people could take their 2020 net worth and 2020 cost of everything vs 2024 net worth and 2024 cost of everything…..what are you guys choosing?

    If it’s not the latter, it tells me everything I need to know. So which is it?

    For the average Joe, they were far better off in March of 2020. Real wages were rising. Now they aren't. Border was pretty secure, now it's not. School attendance was much better. Test scores are now substantially down. Credit card debt way up. When I say leftards are intellectually uncurious, mello, the dazzler and now Buck are the prime examples.

    lol you’re being disingenuous and stubborn, but you’re entitled to your choice. I wish I had the power to give you your wish….you wouldn’t like it.

    So you’re taking your 2020 net worth and 2020 prices? I know you’re a Duck so that would make sense you wouldn’t progress in life.

    If you have a point now would be a good time to reveal it

    Pretty sure you don't
