      Prices go up under Biden and Republicans blame the president.

      Prices go up under Trump and Democrats blame the president.

      Asset values go up on Wall Street and nobody seems to mind.

      Gotta begin to wonder when the proles put two and two together and reach an answer that isn’t Five.

        People bleed when sharks chomp into their flesh.

        People bleed when doctors perform life saving surgery.

        It’s almost like the same thing can have different causes. Try doing the math on that one.

        Oh, so people stupid enough to buy into the left vs right bullshit always have someone to blame?

        Who cares. You actually got something to add to the conversation, or just pointless noise to validate your beliefs?
