$35 trillion in debt. American Dream that away.

National debt goes up

[rasml]

So she said absolutely nothing. She isn't going to do anything she's saying.

[likalabi]

FACT: I have won as many national primaries as Kackles. Zero. None.

[kidt]

Every single American owes $120, 000 and rising on the national debt.
Spend baby spend

[moneymind]

Is this a plan to help Americans or to give immigrants the prizes.

1. Healthcare – control healthcare and you control the people.

2. Poverty – Increase the poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you provide everything for them to live.

3. Debt – Increase the debt level to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes and this will produce more poverty.

4. Gun control – Remove the ability to defend themselves from government. That way you are able to create a police state.

5. Welfare – Take control of every aspect (food, housing, income) of their lives because that will make them fully dependent on the government.

6. Education – Take control of what people read and listen to and take control or what children learn in school.

7. Religion – Remove belief in God from the government and schools because the people need to believe in only the government knowing what is best for the people.

8. Class warfare – Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. Eliminate the middle class.

I want to hear Harris say she'll enforce price gouging laws that ALREADY EXIST!

[thundrchild]

So the person currently in power is going to fix things when they get in power?
Lmao

[JB-iewk]

I am amazed that HARRIS economic plan is aimed at the grocery stores (i.e. KROGER, HEB, and so on) on "price gouging" when considering the net profit margin of food distributors is about 1.6 %net profit margin after taxes (Food Industry Association (FMI) for 2024 and GOOGLE'S AI OVERVIEW). Consider this, if price gouging is occurring at supermarkets would they not be making a much greater profit than 1.6% (say something even with APPLE whose annual profit margin is greater than 99.9 billion annually - i.e., 45-99% profit margin)? The actual problem is not supermarket price gouging as they have to raise prices based on the growers and producers cost overrun. And why are farmers and producers' cost rising? Because this administration (BIDEN-HARRIS) has frivolously spent 2-3 trillion dollars over the last administration spending. Such excessive and out of control spending has to lay in the lap of HARRIS (PRESIDENT TRUMAN's famous remark - "the buck stops here"), not the supermarket industry. For those non-believers or those misinformed please GOOGLE this information and the truth will be in plain sight.

We pay 3 1/2 trillion in interest every year on our nation's debt. 1 trillion in interest every 100 days on the debt. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again.

[RonTheChristFollower-mrub]

If you don"t think her cash hand outs won't raise your taxes you're delusional

[jefffillinger]

Harris NEW campaign slogan CHAOS CACKLE and CRINGE
