100% correct. Dems talk a big game on affordability but everything they stand for makes everything more expensive
As Gavin Newsom comes to South Carolina to stump for the Annie Andrews and Jermaine Johnson, I think in a cost of living cycle, it's important we revisit some stats.View quoted post on X
Cost of living: #1 in the country (being number one isn't great in this category)
Cost of a home: #2 in the country (Again, not good)
Cost of rent: #1 in the country (starting to sense a trend)
Home ownership rate: 49/50 in the country (if you are going to live in California, apparently don't expect to own a home because only 49% of folks are able to afford on there)
Cost per gallon: #1 in the country according to AAA at around $5.78 a gallon
Cost of insurance: 5th highest in the nation on average.
Unemployment: 2nd highest in the country (Oregon wins this category).
Price per pound of beef: $1-$2 above the national average
Price per gallon of milk: 20% above the national average.
So, in a cost of living cycle, the South Carolina Democrats, led by Jermaine Johnson and Annie Andrews are cheering bringing in a surrogate who is arguably the single worst champion of affordability in the country. Fascinating move!
