What makes a stupid drug using UPS driver worth more than technologists
and firemen?
Democrat votes, that's what.
Biden’s famous adoration of ice cream has really only been paralleled or eclipsed by his love for this middle class. His campaign premise to revive
the average American quickly led to a new word: Bidenomics, a portmanteau
(much like Obamanomics, Reaganomics before, or Hobama as of late), that
refers to, in Biden’s own words: “building an economy from the middle out
and the bottom up, not the top down.”
In that vein, Biden hasn’t just been governing in opposition to his former opponent President Trump, but also the Republican hero Ronald Reagan, the onetime union leader during the last Hollywood dual strike who decades
later slashed taxes for the wealthy as part of what became known as trickle-down economics. Tax breaks to the rich helped the rich, of course,
but data has progressively mounted that they didn’t help the middle class
whose wages stagnated for decades, barely keeping pace with inflation.
Now it’s Biden’s turn at the wheel, and drivers are getting paid famously. Rather than building from the top down, Joe’s strategy of bottom up and
middle out, which can be seen in his push to invest in manufacturing jobs
and record-breaking wage growth for those in historically lower-
compensated positions.
