The Biden Presidency: Repairing America.....again

Feb 2020 — unemployment rate 3.5%

Democrats shut down businesses 

Democrats remove restrictions 

Dec 2022 — unemployment rate 4.2% 

KellyM_1964,  I may be wrong but I thought the worst the unemployment got was only 14.7% not 14.8%

Democrats shut down businesses and unemployment went up 

Covid was just as bad in Europe as it was in the US 

Covid has been worse since Biden became President 

The American people aren’t buying the narrative being sold by Democrats. It’s why Biden has such a poor approval rating 

You might want to come up with a different angle 

I  stand corrected, sir.    You were correct at 14.8% in April last year.

They can't, which is why they can only revert back to the far back in the past. The future under biden looks weak, at best. Typical democRAT, do nothing, blame others, take credit when not deserved. Bidens own is turning on him which is causing the MASSIVE drop in approval ratings.

not much diff    but either way it was a massive catastrophe caused by chump and all his accomplices

Yes, 14.8%.  The worst unemployment figure since the Great depression, which was similarly fixed by a Democrat in the White House.  (Likewise Obama -- the black man who was president who most republicans HATED for some unknown reason -- despite reducing unemployment from 10% and handing off the ball to trump with a very good 4.7% unemployment figure!)

trump eventually left in disgrace with an ugly 6.3% unemployment - which is the worst change from start to finish of any president in modern history.  Epic FAILURE! 

(oddly, most republicans feel trump did way better than "the BLACK MAN" in regards to unemployment numbers.  Must be the new republican math)

Not many people would be fooled by those numbers. 

It’s probably why Biden has very low approval numbers and his administration is meeting with news networks trying to shift the narratives in the country. 

of course most members of the flat earth society and all the 9-11 deniers will argue those stats are all fake news

 Don't be so naïve. Every presidential administration tries to influence networks. The last guy had FOX in his back pocket getting air time anytime he wanted.

You say some really stupid shit in here.

We find this truth to be self-evident    

Biden administration to restore Obama energy efficiency standards for light bulbs.  Potential savings of $300 million per month in electricity for US consumers and reduction of 800,000 tons in carbon emissions.

That is welcome news!

Savings of $300 million per month is no small matter.  

Add that to the *BILLIONS* we are already saving monthly by no longer trying to nation build in Afghanistan (thanks to Biden, with a deserved assist to trump for the intitial plan - even though trump's deal with the Taliban ultimately resulted in 13 dead Americans)

Covid has exposed how sensitive America's intricate supply chains are
to shocks, even ones happening on the other side of the world.
Covid outbreaks and extreme weather overseas knocked out computer
chip production in Asia, while demand here simultaneously soared.

The resulting computer chip shortage has significantly contributed
to the biggest inflation spike in three decades.

That is accurate.  It's almost unbelievable how rampant covid overseas leads to worker health issues and shutdowns of chip producing plants which in turn slows our economy and drives up prices here and around the world!  Covid ultimately is driving much of the inflation problem 

      That's why the Biden administration is championing their
CHIPS for America Act -- a $52 billion bill that would
encourage U.S. domestic semiconductor production and research.

Under Biden, US has improved in Bloomberg covid resilience ranking.  Rising from 32th in January to 13th best out of 53 countries with biggest economies.  This monthly ranking provides a snapshot of where the virus is handled most effectively using data indicators.  Virus containment, quality of healthcare, vaccination rate, overall mortality and progress toward restarting travel.  Since November 2020, only 7 countries never fell into the bottom half of ranking even as the pandemic changes.  Norway, Denmark, Finland, UAE, South Korea, Switzerland and Canada.

in the grand scheme of things this is a minor improvement but its an improvement and an important step

I deleted my first response in exchange for this much more civil and educational truth... 

Just in the last 10 years we went from $2.23 TRILLION to now over $8 TRILLION...and it's more now since that was June's number and we've continued $120 BILLION PER MONTH in QE.  The notion that we are "saving" any of these BILLIONS is laughable at best.  Those monies were just redistributed to other purposes and spent. You can't increase your balance sheet by over $6 TRILLION in a decade by "saving" anything.  

exactly fubah ! 

thx to president biden we r saving BILLIONS !  

That is interesting, Thirdperson.  I knew Canada was outperforming us (in large part because they don't have trump and his accomplices to phuck up everything) but I didn't know that stat.

Canada is already ranked well ahead of USA in other key areas, as ranked by U.S. NEWS earlier this year

How can someone be so ignorant.....
