    the difference between prejudice and racism as defined by the commission LBJ formed: the Kerner Commission

    It offered a clear and extremely useful definition of racism. Racism was not simple hatred or prejudice based on skin color. Racism occurred when power was added to prejudice — the power to affect someone’s life physically, economically, educationally, politically or otherwise.

    Black or white, anyone can be prejudiced. You might not like me because of my skin color, and that makes you prejudiced. But it doesn’t automatically make you racist unless you also have the power to impact my life because of your prejudice. There are few, if any, areas of American life where Blacks hold such power.

    That was back then, this does not apply anymore.  WNBA legend Sheryl Swoopes is wrong!  Blacks can be racists, look no further than Atlanta DA Fani Willis who did hold tremendous power.  Anyone can be racist, it's not just whites who are taking the brunt of it in the media.  

    Many people that call others racist don't know the difference.  It's just easier and more damaging to call someone a racist

    The 15 second video inside the link below is post State of the Union from joe and jill biden. I was stunned at what joe had to say! 'We have to start off by vaccinating Americ!'  How well did the last safe and effective vaccination program go?

    Every single Democrat during the Hur hearing today played Donald the Rapist videos instead of asking Hur questions about Biden or the report.

    That played out as a decent strategy. Every time the right holds one of these bullshit hearings trying to smear our President, the left will contrast that pettiness with the behavior & crimes of Donald the Rapist.

    The swamp will continue to run up the National credit card till no one will loan the US or we cannot afford the interest without hyperinflation.

    @sundance

     In economics, hyperinflation is used to describe situations where the prices of all goods and services rise uncontrollably over a defined time period. In other words, hyperinflation is extremely rapid inflation. Generally, inflation is termed hyperinflation when the rate of inflation grows at more than 50% a month.

     

    That would be a scary ending to a Great Nation.

    Its amusing how inflation is blamed on Biden when the government has little control over corporate pricing in a capitalist economy. Corps are screwing the consumer because they can and do you want to know why? Consumers are lazy whales who have been trained to high turnover consume..nobody knows how to slow consumption or reduce to save or because prices are high. Our inflation is a function of a lack of control and an inability to stop even when you have no money to consume.

    The only way CPI comes down is if the consumer slows down and forces corps to drop prices, I do not think there is a large supply chain issue now like two years ago but as long as corps can raise prices and crimp supply then inflation is going nowhere.

    How can Biden or Trump or Obama or Bush force fat lazy consumers to reduce their purchasing and cut back to be financially aware? I have dramatically reduced my consumption and especially elective unnecessary consumption. Even with slowing consumption and dining out like never I still see a higher spend on goods and services.

    My opinion isn't Biden caused this inflation, but the debt on the books under his watch is the most ever by a sitting president.  His released budget for '25 is over 7 TRILLION!!

    about 1.5 TRILLION more than when covid hit and the country paid everyone's bills while they sat on the couch

    All Joe bags of money wants to do it print more money, and send it to other countries.  He should use his leverage to lean on China again for money and pay down the debt he has caused

    My wife enjoys IHOP omelets so I took her out for breakfast this morning since I'll be glued to the TV for the next couple of days. This is what we had...

    Omlete with mushrooms, onions & peppers, coffee. Pancakes came as a side.

    French toast, 4 sausage links & OJ 

    Without a tip, our bill was $44.42 

    Add a $10 tip & breakfast was over $50.

    Now that's ridiculous. Just think of the cost for a family of 4 on a Satruday morning.

    I mean we're talking IHOP here!!

    @soup-can

     

     How much relative debt has Biden added (since all the debt is due to the POTUS and not congress lmao) compared to golden shoes before him? Then to properly analyze your scenario you have to extrapolate the debt increase over TIME with inflation over TIME. Just to make your life easier there is no correlation.

    All POTUS have been chucking on debt since Clinton and then why did we have 15 years of under CPI inflation? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?

    I know its super fun to elevate golden shoes by making Biden the blame of everything and that might work with the less than intelligent golden shoes voter base but its just 100% fake news unless you can VALIDATE IT with data, you know numbers that you can correlate and evaluate...those screwball numbers that prove or disprove stuff?

    Carry on and make sure to buy more stuff off his website, he needs the cash really badly so he wont have to sell a leveraged building in the portfolio.

    Soupcan although my colleague is a bit brash and forward with his analysis he is equally as talented with it , much like a young Mike Tyson .

    And yes he may have over emphasized the golden shoes analogy by using it ad nauseam but let’s not hold it against him like it’s a wet rag full of ether either .

    He’s just very passionate in his beliefs that a certain man is the epitome of all evil .

    Who are we to take his thoughts from him ?

    certain factors have led him to this decision , and while sometimes it clouds his judgement on other issues which are separate and apart from the orange haired assassin of doom , I feel that it is in the best interest of the forum to let him fill his cup of vehement dislike and to let him drink from it .

    because after all do you want everyone to lambast and critique every single part of the process that led you to have certain thoughts that you refuse to relinquish ?

    so at the behest of our esteemed moderator please speak frankly and openly and answer the questions that he has posed to you on this glorious day in 2024 and do not look upon him with scorn or scowls , as he is just a man , like you and I , which means that he is also not free from making the mistake of taking an unnecessary jab or provoking from time to time .

    Again take the high road and good luck on your conversation .

    @Rush51

     You are also welcome to extrapolate your claim with data and real info instead of partisan blaming, what can you find based on actual data that can be proven over a period of time that proves your point outside of just blaming Biden?

    Show me inflation data with an overlay of increase in government spending period to period and convince me that X percent of increase in government spending equals X percent inflation increase. Show me...if you cant prove it based on data then it is a false narrative meant to divide partisan kiddos who are going to be voting soon.

    Trump ran deficits, Obama did, Bush did they all do...so based on real CPI data and government spending data, show me how prices of goods and services can go up to the extent we are seeing? Price is an intersection of supply and demand right? So can you show where demand is THAT much higher on a percentage basis and conclude that government spending ALONE caused inflation?

    You cant...nobody can because it is a false narrative. There are several causes of inflation and it would be better served to discuss the causes than to blame Biden or Trump or Obama..especially since congress is split right down the middle on party and it is congress that passes legislation and gives freebies away to corps or private groups, not just Biden or Trump.

    So....whatcha gonna bring to the discussion about inflation except "Bidenflation"?

    A restaurant in San Francisco’s Mission District is catching attention online after recently bumping the price of its signature burrito from $11 to $22.

    The owner of La Vaca Birria says it’s not an attempt to make more money, but an attempt to continue to break even as prices for everything rise.

    The only problem is, the price of nearly everything he uses to make his food has gone up. Like onions for example.

    “Before COVID, they were like $9 a sack at Restaurant Depot, I used to pick them up. During COVID, and after, it was $40 dollars. Right now, it’s $80,” said Lopez.

    Their signature burrito is the most popular and nearly every ingredient that goes into it has doubled in cost. That’s the reason the owner said its price has, too.

    On that onion topic, I noticed that especially white onions there is a shortage. One of the stores I frequent had none for weeks and then they returned at higher prices, I noticed the same thing with broccoli last fall it went from being out to being very high priced.

    I am actually a member of Restaurant Depot (you have to be an LLC business or higher and register to be a member there) and I gotta say their prices are regularly not competitive and they know as the all in one place shop they are that they have pricing flexibility. Small biz owners go there with massive trollies and get all that the shop needs and do it in one trip but if they were to take the time to price out produce from a produce distributor or at least know the available pricing they would for sure get better deals.

    I like Restaurant Depot for SOME things like cheeses and bulk items like flour and chocolate but their meats and produce prices are marginal prices and quality. I dont blame them they are open to make a profit but just saying..

    @wallstreetcappers

     Go look at inflation under Biden , compared to any president in the last 4 decades.   What other simple data points do you need ?  

    There is a reason Bidenomics = Bidenflation  

     

    Can we go back to the way things were under Trump ??  (low inflation, real wage growth, protected borders, no wars)  ...   Yes, ..... Hopefully, yes.  peace_5

    @wallstreetcappers

     Never heard of them.  Is that a local-area franchise, or a nationwide thing?

    Like a produce-type Costco or Sam’s?

    Sounds like a good deal if you can buy in bulk and use before it goes bad.

    @Raiders22

     They are a restaurant only membership warehouse, there are two here locally and are in several states. Its really a massive disorganized Costco type place, you can get booze, paper goods, meat in bulk, ice cream in 5 gallon drums, big quantities of everything. I go there just for a few items I cannot find elsewhere, so stuff like Chilean Sea Bass and high protein flour for artisan baking..stuff like that.

    I am a total price snob though so I know what they gouge on and what they sell at a good price. When i was younger I ran a few restaurants and we used shippers like Sysco and local produce outlets always trying to maximize profits. Restaurant Depot is a time saver for small restaurants but they are not the best price for most stuff they sell.

    @Rush51

     You didnt answer the question at all. If you want to play partisan blame then back it up bro...show me the numbers and convince me from a financial perspective. I know you are 100% partisan biased as it is no secret so dont sell me on Bidenflation and that Trump is better, we both know that is hogwash. Trump had ZIRP, Biden did not and to me that is the sole reason why corps are gouging the lights out of the consumer, they are making profits off price versus volume because finance costs are higher.

    Show me in CPI/GDP where the marginal increase in consumption is equal to inflation, that is the econ way to prove your point...inflation is a slide on the supply/demand curve based on a few variables so why not take the time to present your position with true financial debating instead of silly weak partisan finger pointing?
