GOP Sen on inflation under Biden: It's social injustice

In a Senate floor speech Wednesday, Kansas Senator Roger Marshall said that inflation is a form of social injustice.

Welcome to socialism! It does not matter the standard of living for the working class goes down, it only matters that the middle, lower, and non-working classes are all EQUAL. Notice i left out the rich? They get richer as they reap the wealth from the middle and lower class. I am blown away how easily the masses were manipulated into this situation.

Why are all the commercials for YT videos suddenly in Chinese? Is it just me? 🤔

I thought this inflation was a kind of correction to offset the deflation the economy experienced during the pandemic. It's crazy how people in Washington can just attribute inflation to any cause that's politically expedient at the moment.

Gas jumped 30 cents over night where I live.

The keystone pipeline was for tar oil only used to make asphalt not gasoline. People be crazy over gop grandstanding

My wages are getting inflated... thanks Biden!

[Sara-hedn]

C'mon, man! We saved $0.16 on our 4th of July barbecues! 🤪🤪🤪
(Just don't add increased gas prices to the equation).

We’ve been in inflation for quite some time

Calling it Bidenomics sounds ridiculous!!! Just make your points.

Someone from Kansas is telling the rest of the country how to do anything? Unbelievable.

I wonder if he took into account that you're at least 600, 000 people who are no longer alive to fill the jobs that are available? I wonder if he takes into account that it takes a decent amount of time for a person to learn how to drive and B license to drive a tanker to deliver gas to gas stations? I also wondered since most of the oil fields froze up in Texas over the winter how many of them are operating at full capacity? And if the Republicans and the former president had not treated covid-19 as a hoax or joke something that we the people should not take Serious, if they had took it seriously then perhaps a lot of meat packing plants would not have been forced to close down interrupting the supply of meat products to the consumer. The same thing happened with virtually every good that you can imagine that people buy. And please let's not forget the hoarding of toilet paper paper towel and cleaning products at the very beginning of this pandemic. Stories are just recovering!

translation: "Why are you printing billions for the poors? You're making all those billions you printed & gifted us last year worth less"

The solution to inflation is simple. Issue each American under $30k a acre of land.
Look at the global agricultural fallout from the pandemic. Chinas floods and upcoming plagues, Europe's floods, Australias mice issue being followed by forecasted disastrous winter. Variably all of North Americas crops was largely disgarded and destroyed last year.
We must allow anyone that opts to involve themselves to secure and source locally while overseeing to global supplies, freeing availability, to the balances to be reestablished, that will take at least a few years, then allow them to retain the property to suit any purpose within the law.

Suddenly debt matters to republicans...

Another sorry performance from Roger Marshall. Can you dance too? You need to do your job and work for Kansas! What's whining about inflation going to do? Do your job or get out of Kansas!
