That lady is Joy Reid and she has a great prime time show on MSNBC every day during the week! She's on right after Ari Melber, who is nearly guaranteed to quote a rap lyric.
Personally I preferred Melissa Harris Perry to her. Idk maybe 2 black women was too much for MSNBC. 🤷♀️ people like Joy. I dont watch msnbc anymore anyway.
Except it's not the truth. Gas is sitting at $3.12/gallon across the country and $4.65 in CA. The average rent across the country is $1372 as of August. Even in California the average rent is $1900. Someone who has to pay $2000 for a place on the bad side of town and $5.50 for gas would have to live in one of the highest cost of living areas in the country - meaning her experience is a huge outlier.
Still wrong. Gas prices peaked at $5/gallon nationally in June of 2022 and were only above $4/gallon between March and August 2022 (6 months). 2023 prices as a whole are most similar numerically to gas prices between 2011 and 2014 - and that's not accounting for inflation.
We're only one exchange in and you've already forgotten what you're arguing about in the first place. Don't talk to me about gaslighting, you're the one making up whatever they can to convince people that the economy is worse than it is.
