[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gas $2.15 a gallon Strong economy Low inflation Low unemployment Secure borders I dont consider myself "maga" I just use common sense to answer your question op. You could have done the same.[/quote] Gas was last at $2.15 a gallon in 2005. Now it is $3.50, which is an increase of 63%. The median annual net pay was $24K in 2005. Now it is $45K, which is an increase of 87%. So a gallon of gas has become less expensive since 2005 measured relative to net pay. [/quote] This is so disingenuous. Life is so much more expensive today than 5 years ago and no, my pay did not increase to match inflation.[/quote] But wouldn't the GOP say that's your fault for failing to haul yourself up by the bootstraps?[/quote] No. The GOP is fiscally liberal and socially conservative. [/quote] Exactly. "The Republican Party claims to be “the party of maximum economic freedom and the prosperity that freedom makes possible.” However, an analysis of economic performance since World War II under Democratic versus Republican presidents [b]strongly suggests that claims that Republicans are better at managing the economy are simply not true.[/b] While the reasons are neither fully understood nor completely attributable to policy choices, [b]data show that the economy has performed much better during Democratic administrations. Economic growth, job creation and industrial production have all been stronger[/b]."
