Issues don’t matter — to Democrats
By J.A. Frascino
Democrats, exemplified by our current party incumbents and candidates, take great measure in avoiding serious discussion of real socio-economic issues that are eroding the national fabric. That is because their policies are largely responsible for the genesis of these issues.
Inflation. CNBC (8/3/20) chided Trump for proclaiming that a nationwide lockdown would “ultimately inflict more harm than it would prevent.” Overzealous COVID lockdown policy, primarily leftist in origin, precipitated an economic recession, “corrected” by government economic stimulus overshoot: Biden’s pork laden $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan on top of Trump’s already enacted $2 trillion Care Act, resulting in persisting inflation. (Milton Friedman: “Inflation is created by government and by no one else.”) But Kamala can blame current high prices on corporate greed. (John Maynard Keynes foolishly opined that “The profiteers are a consequence and not a cause of rising prices”.) The Democrats know better.
Teenage social withdrawal, anxiety, depression, suicide, drug use — exacerbated by Randi Weingarten’s teachers union’s protracted school closure policy in response to COVID, on top of an underlying groundswell of disconnect and loss of identity resulting from leftist induced erosion of patriotism, religion, traditional family structure, gender identity. Blame it all on social media.
