RE: Responding to Texas Dan & Myself
I appreciate both the initial comment as well as AH’s response, not because the comment [from Dan] was very good but because it initiated an additional response [from AH] , it [Dan’s comment] was emotional and therefore lacking unfortunately, it did require a substantive response [from AH] though and I enjoyed that part.
I don’t know AH if you’re date of pre-election is an accurate timeline though because often times presidencies may start making changes knowing that a change is about to occur or may occur and therefore change the overall response or at least the look of how things were going to go. So I don’t believe it’s accurate to say that November 19th was without knowledge of what the election outcome would be. You are absolutely correct in saying that there was no perfect knowledge but they had a good knowledge as to what the outcome was going to be pre-election time frame and therefore could have been doing things to make things look as if Biden had actually made some major improvements.
In fact I have the thought back in September of last year that that was exactly what was occurring with regards to the gasoline prices . Is to make it look like Biden had actually done some major things and that inflation wasn’t actually as bad as it was. If you ask the people what they felt the inflation was with regards to Biden’s time frame you’ll see a very different picture than what the numbers show.
The numbers from the government seem to be dishonest /deceitful at best. The government has changed what actually constitutes the the lens of looking at inflation which is why I say this. And to be honest you can certainly disagree with my assessment as I am not an expert in any of this but inflation to the people seems like it’s a very different number than what the government states it is regardless of what they’re stating.
Either way the whole issue is unfortunate at best and difficult on many families. I wish you and the previous commenter the best of luck in all your endeavors as well.
