Polls have also shown Biden’s support slipping among Black and ethnic minority voters, who helped drive his 2020 election win against Trump.
Analysts say Biden’s best hope now is a simple but quite specific number: that wages continue to rise faster than prices as they have done since April of last year, allowing consumers to feel that their wallets are fuller.
I think in the end we actually do value the same things, the difference is I don’t think that means are worth the end anymore. If you can’t do some thing without being correct and right and you shouldn’t do it.
If we can’t get to where we want through the correct means, then we shouldn’t get there.
How you do something is just as important as what you do.
If you feed the hungry, but you do it by killing thousands of innocent children and feeding the masses their bodies, then you may have met your goal of reducing demand and increasing supply, but it wasn’t worth it.
But the scenario you outline above is literally the opposite of that.
You said you’d choose to force feed everyone horse shit instead of food if it brought about the end you desired.
You’re saying the completely opposite thing now.
I think maybe we do want the same thing, but we’re disconnecting at some level of this conversation and we’re not going to get anywhere unless we get on the same page.
