lolNumbers are real. And thanks to Bidenomics it's now even harder for the average American to buy a home.
How Bidenomics Wrecked America’s Housing Market
All around the nation can be found the detritus of “Bidenomics,” especially in America’s broken housing market. Countless families are struggling just to find somewhere affordable to live, with the American dream of homeownership all but snuffed out for much of the middle class. The only way to...www.heritage.org
Inflation is a world wide problem. Love the desperation shown in that conservative hit piece trying to pin Bidenomics on it. Yes, Biden's administration raised interest rates and it bites into the housing market so, yes, Biden's administration's actions in response to inflation is part of the reason why. Is a temporary stall in housing market the worst you can find to pin on Biden?
Also, Heritage.org sucks as a reference.

When Biden took office the inflation rate was 1.4 and started rising instantly due to his policies starting on the first day.lol

It did that all over the world at the same time so I guess Biden is to blame for that as well? The US is doing better than any of the other G20 nations but you seem to not have got the memo.When Biden took office the inflation rate was 1.4 and started rising instantly due to his policies starting on the first day.

US inflation rates effect the rest of the world as well as the US.
Does easing US inflation point the way for the world?
It may be good news for the rest of the world if price increases in the US continue to slow.

I don't think you're correct about the US doing better than any other G20 country. Where did you hear that?

I meant G7 but still better than most. All this inflation was brought about by interest rates being held down artificially leading to excess spending causing massive demand then a near shutdown of supply lines all over the world. A perfect storm.
The inflation rate is falling now since the fed is raising interest rates. It sounds good that inflation is at its lowest in 2 years but that's still over 3 times what it was when he took office and don't forget it hit record highs since the 80's under his administration.

We're having the same problems here in Canada right now with the inflation rate creeping up even after a bunch of interest rate hikes. Same shit in Britain, Europe and all over the world.
Pushing too hard to force that inflation rate down is hurting a lot of people paying lots more on mortgages etc due to high interest but killing for the rich with lots of money to invest. As long as the rich are happy it should trickle down to us peons eventually, right?

I have no argument with the trends you complain about. I argue with the cause you ascribe them, to. After the threat of Covid became manageable, after the world's economies opened up, we went through a massive inflation cycle . Putin's war on Ukraine made it worse. The US's economy was wildly out of control when Trump left office and Biden's administration piloted to a nearly perfect landing.
You ran right over a very good summary in post 46 of this thread that disproved your assertion. Too bad for you that it made you look foolish, deal with that instead of repeating your foolish claim that "Biden did it". You even showed us statistics comparing US's to other G20 countries and is shows the opposite of what you claim. No, man. your argument is false and it's already been disproven. Inflation is an outcome of policies and events other than the ones that Biden took to get this economy back on track after Covid and address inflation.
biden doesnt control the entire world though everyones experiencing inflation every single countryWhen Biden took office the inflation rate was 1.4 and started rising instantly due to his policies starting on the first day.

I got one of them insurance tracker gizmos on my car, it'll ding me if I do more than limit+7mph. On a recent trip up I-5 to Portland, I had everyone blowing past me because I couldn't drive with the flow. I hate this thing.
