Prices went up because Democrats have environmental regulations. Ok, cool.
Conservatives (regressives) refuse to accept higher prices for anything, including a higher quality of life. This, of course, only holds true until someone they elected skyrockets their cost of living and then the excuses come pouring in. The problem is they keep electing failures that skyrocket their cost of living without offering them anything in return.
Sometimes you have to pay more for nicer things. Here’s a good example. I’ve spent my entire life in The Valley in California. When I was a kid I’d come down out of the Sierras on the freeway in the summer and you could literally see a thick layer of smog covering the valley with the tops of the skyscrapers peaking out above that layer. Then CA got serious about fuel refinement standards and SMOG laws and now that layer is all but gone. So I pay more TO BREATHE CLEANER AIR. And there’s way more people/cars in this valley than there used to be, so these regulations REALLY worked.
And like you mentioned, the cost of living skyrocketing is so clearly and obviously tied to this admin’s awful policies that there’s no argument in reality against it. The problem is we’re all trying to point this out to actual, literal cult members.
