(before you check, the Dow hit 40,000 for the first time under Biden a few weeks ago. Somehow didn't see any stories about giddy stockbrokers that attributed it to Biden "keeping his campaign promises" there either)

Do people who post viral complaints about the cost of Taco Bell meals understand that they are part of a propaganda effort designed to weaken the US labor market (only in part in order to weaken Biden and the Dems and get Trump reelected)? bsky.app/profile/walm...

Ten years ago many Very Serious People said that America could never return to full employment because our workers lacked the necessary skills
