Joshua Green - “The Rebels” | The Daily Show

Giving money to the middle class and poor did not cause inflation. It's already been shown that most inflation was just price gouging by the biggest companies.

Did he just say that the stimulus caused inflation? I think it's pretty well known that corporate greed and price gauging caused the majority of the inflation.

"the real people" are certainly concerned about not affording housing, food, and basic needs on standard wages. A combination of housing costs, income taxes, and sales taxes are making it impossible no matter where your political affiliation lies. The nation as a whole will care very little about these numbers when they fail to be a genuine gauge of economic impact. (left, right, middle, bottom: top can afford not to)

"Pundits focus on future fascism to dodge discussion of current complicity. They avoid the question of why every US institution failed to curtail an obvious security threat for decades on end, regardless of which party was in charge. They ignore Biden’s apathy toward an attempted coup and how the US became the first country in world history to allow an unpunished seditionist to run for president again. They present a transnational security crisis as a domestic partisan feud." - Sarah Kendzior -

Umm, slight correction - a lot of inflation was/is caused by profit-taking by big corporations.

His book must be in the fiction section, judging by what he says here.

I guess that interview was for peeps who don’t follow politics.

The dude totally ignored the question about housing, which is still borked. There are real issues that don't seem be getting attention on either side. Home prices and rent skyrocketed, and nothing seems to be happening to fix that.

How to not talk about complicity in a g-word that YT probably shadowbans now.

"Nobody decided to run against him..." <--- WOW!!! Marianne Williamson, Dean Phillips and initially Cornell West and RFK I guess are "Nobody".
