Not long ago, senior citizens got the two biggest annual increases in their monthly Social Security checks that most had ever seen. But for many of them, the adjustments still weren’t enough to cope with the runaway inflation of earlier this decade and the continued high prices for food, housing, utilities and other necessities.
Why are the actions of congress Biden’s fault and not congress’? The President does not set policy. He can only ask congress to send him a Bill and decide whether or not to sign it into law.
We need to get better at holding the correct people accountable for our problems if we ever expect anything to get done.
This is just another “Biden bad” article.

Biden’s policies ≠ law.
Biden does not have a metaphorical “raise/lower inflation” lever that he can just manipulate as he sees fit. He’s just the figurehead you don’t like him, so he’s your scapegoat. Most of the inflation you see today stems from supply chain crises around the world which showed businesses they can just raise prices and people will pay them.
Much of the inflation you see today isn’t actual inflation. It’s price-gouging.
