The economy has little impact on price gouging and you better believe rent is being gouged to fuck.
They all collude too, example: https://m.slashdot.org/story/406219
Your post has “Biden did that” in relation to gas prices energy
Nah it's a counter to statements like this: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/28/us/politics/biden-speech-economy-chicago.html
It’s probably more a tongue in cheek response to the “everything is fine” attitude they seem to have
He didn’t do that, and he hasn’t corrected or even addressed it until campaign year.
I would be on the same page as you except Biden tried to take a victory lap on the economy. We're in the backlash of that right now. You can tell because they're scrambling to look like they're lowering prices on anything they can.
Homelessness is a very complex issue encompassing things like mental health and climate change. The president has no direct control over rent prices, they may be able to influence them to a degree, but that’s all. This is an integral part of late-stage capitalism. People in need are being left behind because America is filled with greed. One of the many things to help alleviate this would be the construction of subsidized dense housing in areas with high levels of amenities.
Number go up!
