everything has gone up. keep saying inflation is under control, it s not. charles: americans feeling the pinch, so is that why president biden regrets the inflation reduction act, the name in the president reportedly saying that at a private fundraiser a say, quote, i wish i hadn t called it that. it has less to do with reducing inflation than it does providing alternatives that generate economic growth. so is he right in the government just reported this week consumer prices are on the rise yet again, consumer and producer prices, that s probably why 7 in 10 americans disapprove of president biden s handling of inflation. steve moore probably thinking that, saying, hey, i told you so. he joins me now along with dem jacket democratic strategist crystal knight. steve, you said the inflation reduction act was going to throw kerosene on a raging fire of inflation. so that s happening now. president biden trying to change the message, but it doesn t help the average american, does it?
president biden put trillions of dollars into an economy that did not need it. just as some sort of modern monetary test of free money, and what we got out of it was inflation, once in a generation i nation. so nominally, they can i say, hey, the economy is super duper strong, but the fact of the matter is people who go into the store with $100 now go in with 2200 and come out with fewer bags 200. crystal s right, there are signs of positives in the economy, no question about it. we have a strong job market right now for workers, that s a good thing. the stock market, as you know, charles, you cover this every day, has been on a tear. but i still think the fundamental problem is that for middle income, working class americans, things aren t better with, they are worse. and what s really frustrating to me as an economist and, look, i m biased, i worked for trump the economy was teed up for a ferocious recovery when biden came into office. remember, covid had come to an
remember this? we re thrilled to showcase our facility here for you today. along the way, you will get to meet some great teammates of mine here. mr. chairman, let me just say something quickly to you. the fact is, you re making me look good. i have overwhelming no, i mean it. charles: okay. the ev company that he once said was making him look good filed for bankruptcy. luckily no taxpayer money went to this company, but will president biden s other green pushes just end up costing americans a lot of green? want to bring back economist steve moore and democratic strategist crystal knight. steve, i think the money we re talking about right now just this is a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of money being poured into these things now. yeah, over 100 billion dollars already, and it could be headed to a trillion. charles, you said they haven t gotten any government money. that s not exactly true because they did get a forgiveness on
democrats to run and primary biden. lee carter and crystal knight is here to weigh-in on that. what do you think? there s a healthy app appeti for other americans to run for office. certainly when we saw gavin newsome do his interview with sean hannity, you can tell there was appetite for him to take more of a public stage. it was refreshing to see a democrat on the republican-leaning hannity program. i think that people want to see that happen. they were disappointed that joe biden wouldn t come on to fox news. there s a huge appetite for other candidates and fierce competition on the left that people might not be thinking about. it could raise their profile. the president said god save the queen. he said putin is loosing the war
