If you want to see who’s really controlling things, follow the money, profits from big oil, multinationals and just about every business has made good profits coming out of covid lockdowns. The people really hurting are the working class with higher mortgages and crashing super funds and no pay increases because well, that would be inflationary…….see the irony?

Not even close. Biden has managed to ruin everything he has touched within 2 years. Obama was right when he said "never underestimate Joe's ability to screw things up".
How much has Joe actually been allowed to achieve?
Zero beyond what those Republican Senators will allow to pass, so far it’s one infrastructure bill that they supported, the other +$4 Trillion of desired programs died because they would never be supported by the Republicans.

Unlike our Westminster system, a vote in the US senate has to pass by at least 10 votes……..The Dems and Biden never stood a chance with a 50 Dem & 50 Rep house split. Nothing they do under Biden’s presidency will matter because from here to eternity nothing will never pass the senate without huge Republican support and that’s never going to happen, ever.
