Oh they’re already on it. Biden was the winner btw. When asked about how crappy the economy has been since the tarrifs he said perhaps the most expected thing possible:
“I think the good parts are the Trump economy and the bad parts are the Biden economy because he’s done a terrible job.”
I mean this is categorically false. The gold medal winner for the women’s marathon at the last Olympics had a lower time than the average finisher on the men’s side. 10th place in the men’s marathon would have won gold in women’s by over 15 minutes. Even on a pretty basic level, an 18 year old woman has the same qualifying time as a 60 year old man for the Boston Marathon.
The only time I’ve seen women compete are when the length of the races get massive. I’m talking like ultra marathons or the moab 240 or something. It is possible to see women legitimately compete with men and even win there but it’s still pretty rare (look up Courtney Dauwalter if you want to see something really impressive). It is very interesting to watch the gap close as the length of the races increases tho.
Lol the country has gone through two wars based around revolting… It can and will happen. Definitely not with this tho… You need people pissed off. Right now, we have some people pissed while a whooole lot of other people are not only happy with what’s happening, but in a state of pure ecstasy.
This is one of the most glaring problems with tariffs. Companies raise their prices and the tariff becomes basically a tax on the people. But within that is hidden the fact that gigantic companies can often hold off on raising prices because they have the money to deal with it in the short term and the massive markets to pull in discounted prices from suppliers. The result is humongous businesses like Walmart keep their prices low through the tariffs while your mom and pop shop down the street has no choice but to raise prices or go out of business cause they don’t have the kind of margins bigger companies do. They raise their prices, everyone flocks to huge businesses like Walmart who kept their prices lower, then mom and pop close up shop cause they aren’t selling anything at the higher prices. Then Walmart can do whatever they want cause they just tagged tariffs into the ring and murdered the competition. Tariffs have their place but they largely suck ass in a multitude of ways.
This is a strange take. Just because they blatantly skirt (or take a big fat dump on) the law and ignore their own hypocrisy routinely certainly doesn’t mean it’s useless or stupid to continually point it out.
That was my first thought too. I guess they mean like bigger as in impactful or more serious?
