There's been a shit-ton of bitching from the RepubliQ about inflation and gas prices, but has anyone heard any proposals from them regarding what to do about it? Or are they just whining and moaning, without suggesting any concrete solutions--even wackadoodle RepubliQ-style conservitard dipshot "policy," like putting tariffs on imports from Mars or nuking Mexico City?
I've already heard some of their November pitch. "Vote for us and we'll make it all better." They don't say how. They don't say what they plan to do to address the problem. They just make vague, unsubstantiated promises.
The reality, of course, is that inflation will subside right about when the elections are concluded, and I fully expect the RepubliQ to take credit for that (even though none of the scum will actually be in office yet). The key takeaway I'm getting is that the RepubliQ are extremely happy that inflation is high and people are upset about it. The party not in power benefits when the people are disaffected and unhappy. So they have every incentive to exacerbate, not solve, the problem.
Maybe that's why all we're hearing from them is bitching. (That, and they all get nice fat bonus checks from the fossil fuel industry.)
