[@hopscotchc6n]

What year did anything ever go down in price? It's generally known that everything goes up in price every year regardless of who's president. That's bc our capitalist economy is one of supply & demand, with prices set by sellers & providers of products & services, not by the executive or any other branch of government. Co-vid interrupted the supply chain, customer demand declined. When co-vid subsided, businesses raised prices to compensate for lost revenue & most haven't lowered them since & are simply price-gouging.

Trump constantly saying that Kamala isn't smart, yet he's the one who can't see the difference between "no taxes on tips or social security" and "no taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers." Just to be clear, I'll spell it out. Trump's statement is too broad and too easily abused. If there are no taxes on tips period, then most businesses could easily switch to a tipping model to avoid taxes altogether, even big businesses like lawyers could technically work for tips. And since it's apparently legal for restaurants to charge mandatory tips on the bills, why would it be any different for a lawyer to simply turn his fees into mandatory tips? Instant loop hole, too easy. Kamala is verbally restricting these tax-free tips to service and hospitality workers, the places where you expect low wages and living on tips, where it would be much harder to abuse. In all likelihood, there will probably be a maximum by the time such a thing becomes a law, making it even harder to exploit it. As for why Kamala hasn't committed to not taxing social security, I watched a lawyer explain that one. If you remove the taxes on social security, that only benefits the wealthy. Most people who are living on social security don't make enough to have it taxed in the first place, and the point at which you would have it taxed is already high enough that it shouldn't hurt the people paying taxes on it. So what he's really saying is that he'll make it so that rich people don't have to pay those taxes, and in doing so rob the program of millions of dollars that will instead have to be made up somewhere else. Last I heard his plan was to raise taxes on imports from other countries, including food, so basically the rich won't have to pay for their taxes but the average American will pay more for groceries to compensate for it. Great plan, Donny boy. No notes.

Where do they get these numbers from? I just went to the store today and something I bought less than 2 months ago was $2.99, it is now $6.15! Please state your sources!

Inflation is the lowest??? In what world is NBC reporting???

[@BasicYTHandle]

It is reporting what was announced.

[@Luke-rm1kw]

Inflation is lowering, not prices. It's like when you slow down in your car - that doesn't mean you go backwards. You're just not going as fast.

[@zrfitness9898]

Its not Just NBC. Check other news sources. They are reporting it too

CPI coming to 2.9 is NOT saying prices will go down. They'll just not increase as rapidly. That is so nonsense for the already struggling families. This is HALF TRUTH. Full truth is PRICES ARE NOT COMING DOWN.

At 4:29 in the video, KAMALA accomplishments: 1. Kamala Harris reduced credit card late fees from $32 to $8.💙 2. Kamala's reduction of junk fees at the banks saves Americans $5.5 billion annually.💙 3. Kamala's elimination of airline junk fees saves Americans $500 million annually. 4. Kamala reduced the price of 41 prescription medicines for low-income Americans and the elderly. 💙 5. Kamala provided health insurance to 20 million poor Americans who have never had medical care before.💙

And people still can't afford to eat and pay the rent! EXCEPT the migrants.....that's cost belongs to us!

@@stevepackard8542 And also, KAMALA voted and passed three important laws after a 50-50 tie in the Senate: 6.1. The COVID economic relief for low-income Americans. 💙 6.2. The American Rescue Plan Act for small-business owners. 6.3. The Inflation Reduction Act. 💙 Thanks to Kamala, meal prices in fast-food restaurants are going down, for the first time in 3 years.

republicans blocked some of these but yes this is where Kamala's head is at. It's a shame republicans worked hard to tank a few of these.

​@hughjorg4008 please stop the propaganda the inflation reduction act Is nothing to be proud of please look into the bills instead of just listening to the title these bills have maybe 40% going towards what they are named and the other 60% go to complete garbadge that the u.s cannot afford inflation reducing to 3% is normal what is not normal is cost of groceries being up 25% the cost of insurance being up 52 percent this wreckless spending must stop we are rapidly de valuing the dollar

Inflation at its lowest in three years? That is laughable. I went to Costco and Walmart today, and I can tell you with 100% certainty that my receipt does reflect lower prices. It's all bs and greed!

Mr. Trump should heed Nikki Haley’s advice. Stop with the childish name calling and stop with the foolish ‘my crowds are bigger than any in history’ Learn what bi-racial means and move on. Nobody wants a buffoon to run the country.

So does Lindsey Graham.

Actually, she's about the most sensible Republican representative out there. Wouldn't it be nice to hear politicians speaking intelligently and making sense again? Arguing their own policies instead of the other's laugh or posture or whatever?

1:45 No, it is not the lowest *inflation rate **_since_** the pandemic!* Perhaps Lester meant to say, "since the pandemic cooled off." Grocery prices "are virtually flat" *at high prices,* indeed!
