Why Democrats' Economic Policies Under Biden and Harris Fail to Address America’s Needs
The theory that Democrats, particularly President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, are dedicated to helping Americans needs a critical reevaluation. Their policies, after all, have been criticized for lacking substance and attention, which poses significant questions about their ability to deliver meaningful change.
The Vacuity of Empty Promises
The crux of the matter isn't merely that Democrats haven't implemented policies to help Americans; it's that their track record demonstrates they are more adept at campaign propaganda than responsible governance. Policies such as the adoption of Trump's no tax on tips idea by Harris highlight a superficial healthcare, which does little to address the underlying economic issues.
Political Posturing vs. Practical Policy Implementation
Consider the current political landscape in the United States. Does it make sense to expect the Republican Speaker of the House to bring forward votes for legislative initiatives that could genuinely help Americans, particularly ones from the Democratic side, in the run-up to the 2024 election? The answer is a resounding no. The Speaker's primary interest lies in politicizing issues and impeaching Biden, not in substantive and effective governance.
Harris's game plan hinges on the idea that enthusiasts will forego critical analysis and blindly support her due to her campaign rhetoric. However, this strategy fails to acknowledge the reality that her proposals are as fictional as a politician’s promise to help without support from Congress. It’s no wonder she has chosen to operate as if she were no longer part of the administration, just a senator desperately seeking recognition.
A Call to Accountability and Action
The naysayers and critics argue that Harris's past actions, primarily as a member of a high-profile administration, have been detrimental. Instead of addressing the pressing issues now, she prefers to campaign on the promise of what she intends to do—often deferring to a future without genuine effort in the present. This deferral is symptomatic of a leader who prioritizes short-term gains over long-term solutions.
It's essential to recognize that the Democrats are adept at political gimmicks and gaslighting their supporters. From opening the Southern Border, allowing drug dealers and sex traffickers to enter, to closing the Keystone Pipeline and mailing billions in pork to states, every action taken during their tenure has left Americans questioning the true intentions behind the policies.
For instance, under Biden's tenure, the closure of the Keystone Pipeline was a move that, though intended to reduce the dependency on fossil fuels, ultimately resulted in job losses and a rise in gas prices. Similarly, lifting sanctions on Russia for the Nord Stream Pipeline meant compromising on national security and economic stability. These actions reveal a failure to prioritize real economic benefits for citizens.
Conclusion: An Urgent Need for Change
The hard-fought lessons of four years under the Biden-Harris administration call for a sober reassessment of their economic policies. It is clear that while they may excel in creating vacuous campaign promises, their track record on real governance and economic management leaves much to be desired.
For America, the inconvenient truth is that the political pendulum has swung so far under Biden and Harris that it is now time to make concrete changes. The American people deserve leaders who will address economic challenges with the urgency and effectiveness that the country demands.
