what, and democrats are sure pushing the narrative that hey, you know, ethel merman once said, everything is coming up roses. brian: if you ask the people are they on a role, yeah, i m on a role. the question is, are they really on a roll. still having trouble getting baby formula, and delayed because of supply chains, and 50% whether you get on and off a plane at the time in which they pledge. extreme trouble in that area. some is his fault, some isn t. let s look at what he says are successes. there s a bipartisan infrastructure deal from last year. there is the rescue plan, most people think fuels inflation, including larry summers. and then the other plan, the chips plan, if you want the commerce department to fuel innovation, that will be the first time. but there was some republican support for that. however, the last plan you mentioned, $750 billion, they were so proud of it, they had to
between march and may. and last night we learned that thousands of staff at british airways staff are getting an average 13% pay rise. everybody wants a fair deal. but there s a worry. if everyone gets paid more, prices keep going up, and inflation keeps soaring. it s obviously good for living standards. but the concern is that inflation could become embedded if workers start demanding higher wages to keep up with rising costs of living. so the concern is that, if firms can t meet those high wages through lower profits or higher productivity, then they end up passing on those wages through higher prices, which then further fuels inflation. and some of you will no doubt be saying, i m not getting a pay rise at all! for lots of people that is true despite prices continuing to climb. some economists think inflation will peak at 13%. and we know the energy price cap for gas and electricity is going up in october.
strategy, a risky strategy because the risk is if you put money into the risk is if you put money into the economy when inflation is heading to 10% there is a danger you could fuel inflation and have that inflation spiral they are trying to avoid. borisjohnson now has his hands on the lever of the economy now rishi sunak is gone and nadhim zahawi will try and do the tax cutting things that will get good headlines and could help in the short term but could be damaging in the long term. short term but could be damaging in the long term- short term but could be damaging in the long term. nadhim zahawi before he became chancellor the long term. nadhim zahawi before he became chancellor was the long term. nadhim zahawi before he became chancellor was talking i he became chancellor was talking about 9% pay increase for teachers. will he be singing from the same song sheet now he is chancellor and looking at other public sector workers question i think nadhim zahawi would often do in the
matter and defunding cops and we have a crime explosion. as tragic as it is they own it. they never took the steps to make sure that overseas people had this idea of peace through strength, reagan policy which keeps us out of war. instead we have russia and china that are increasingly being aggressive. you have this problem with inflation. to me the biggest problem for them. two things democrats do these days. they want to tell you how to live your life and impose mandates and they love to spend money. republicans like to spend money too much, too. the problem now is when they spend more money, trillions and trillions. they spent two trillion on another covid emergency relief bill. that fuels inflation. their number one answer to everything is to spend money and it will make the problem worse. i don t see how he gets out of this year, i really don t. harris: crystal. let s pop up the same fox poll. voters approve of republicans in major issues including the economy. shows how they lo
you think there s an overreach on the democrats party to widen the net of people that would be gaining government assistance? it s not sensical that someone in a household like this would be getting checks from the government. what you re hearing her articulate is a far left idea on. if democrats get power in washington, they grow government and spend money. that s what they do. this is a perfect example of that. we doubled the child tax credit, the 2017 tax law during the pandemic. they took it up to $3,600. if you have kids under six years old and widened the income bracket so that there s more people eligible for it. that flooded the zone with a lot of money out there. all that does is fuels inflation. in the end, if you have inflation growing faster than wage increases, everybody comes out net-net losers.
