I see it all the time. Peoples savings, retirement funds, homes, all being drained like never before, throwing the hardship onto their kids that have a VERY uncertain future and scraping to get by themselves.........The average citizens aren't making more money, especially with the cost of living an inflation skyrocketing.

The worst part is the Republicans framing it as BIDEN & DEMS FAULT, when it is totally outrageous profiteering by all the Corporations.
