OK would someone explain to me how Biden is responsible for

[malaise]

a baby formula shortage. Are manufacturers and the Chambers of Commerce/aka the MARKET ever responsible for their own failures.
Where are all the small government MoFos now?

1. Just because! No, seriously, that plant was shut for CONTAMINATION and yet the mfrs lobbied for

LOOSER REGHULATIONS! Wanna blame someone? Blame greedy capitalism.

3. The hits just keep on coming when it comes to Republican weaknesses.

A) They are not the party that will make sure that private corporations can provide safe food for our children. But, alas, a failed company has caused a shortage.
B) The America First Contract Trump signed is keeping us from backfilling the shortages.

In sum, the Conservative Supreme Court wants us to have more babies, even though Republicans prefer to step on their own dicks, rather than do the hard work of ensuring we have regulations and safety nets in place to make sure we can feed them.

16. Great post

4. They are the real baby killers - I'm shocked I tell yah!

Ah well!

[rurallib]

14. plus they put a huge amount of money toward stock buy backs

2. Same reason why Democrats are "elites" blamed for "ignoring/leaving behind" the white working class.

Democrats are blamed for what corporations, businesses, Red State governments do.

5. Sickening

Dems need to fight back HARDER

[betsuni]

12. Union membership peaked in the '50s, manufacturing in the '60s and yet

we see Democrats blamed for being "neoliberals" "elites" who are very mean to working/middle class.

News I've seen the last few days blames Democrats for inflation, baby formula, gas prices, "not doing enough." As if Red States aren't controlled by Republicans, as if only the federal government (when there's a Democrat in office) is controlling everything. Corporations and businesses are always innocent!

6. Because they allow it. In a trump White House

they never took responsibility for anything and blamed everyone and anyone for any problems. It's certainly not Biden's fault but while standing up there trying to find solutions while not pointing out WHO caused the problem doesn't work anymore. Time to get forceful and raise your voice so Americans know who fucked things up and stop letting them blame you for everything. People want strong leaders who point out why the Democratic party is better. We're not to blame and it's not wrong to say that and still work to fix it. Republicans know the squeaky wheel gets attention and they use it daily and it works.

9. +1,000

Biden needs to throw this right back at the Slobfather and his America first fuckery.
Canada has a surplus of baby food.

7. Free market shortages are a feature, not a bug

Helps to keep the price up. Few competing manufacturers for anything anymore.

8. He has it all hidden away.

In the basement of that pizza shop.

10. Ha

😀😀😀

[JHB]

11. C'mon, malaise, it's simple logic that any moran can follow...

If the news is bad and a Democrat is president, it's the fault of the current Democratic president.
If the news is bad and a Republican is president, it's the fault of the previous Democratic president.

All it requires is getting a brains!

[malaise]

13. Ha😀😀

This one is easy- the Slobfather is responsible for this. Canada has a surplus

15. Somebody's gotta feed the pedo ring.

Good god, republicans are such clowns.

17. abbott is a deeply evil company. had a bunch of friends who used to work for them.

scientists. phds. researchers. hated the place w a white hot passion. this saw 90's mostly, when they started turning rly evil.
not surprised that fat nixon lined their pockets in his half baked nafta rewrite. but that they have govt in their pockets to the point that wic is rigged for them shows just how deep the shit we are in is.

please joe- we need an eo NOW to get rid of the wic rule and any other such stupid rigging, and to import from cananda.
call justin, have him load up a plane. get a photo op.

[malaise]

19. Thanks for this

And yes an EO is needed

[Tickle]

18. He's being blamed because

it is happening on his watch. I said this in another post.
We know this is not from his policies, we know it's from the other side but it's still is happening on his watch.

The mistake I'm making is trying to explain this to the other side. It has gotten so bad I sometimes think if they found out where I lived they would come for me. I know sounds silly but you guy on a site that is bashing Biden and try to explain why it's not his fault

With elections a few months away we need to start screaming from the top of the mountains for everyone to get out an vote like our lives depend on it

20. To the GOP, the gov't is now responsible for production? Do they have a 5 year plan?

Do they have a 5 year plan?

22. Biden is certainly not responsible. However if it were trump in office, we'd be all over his rear.

That's kind of where we are in this country.
