Job Creators Network Calls Out Democratic Spin on Energy, Food, and Rent Inflation Ahead of Debate
2024-09-10
[Breitbart] Job Creators Network, America’s largest small business advocacy group, has unveiled a rotating billboard in Times Square, highlighting the harsh economic reality millions of Americans face under President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. The massive ads, meant to “dismantle campaign spin from the Democrats by showing how consumer prices are still rising even as the inflation rate falls,” arrive ahead of Tuesday’s primetime debate between Harris and former President Donald Trump.

The billboards show how the price of electricity, ground beef, and rent have exploded since Biden and Harris took office in January 2021. “Plotting actual prices alongside the inflation rate on the same graph. The ads refer to the difference as ‘Kamala’s Misery Gap,'” Job Creators Network said.

Indeed, Biden-Harris inflationary spending policies shot electricity prices up more than 30 percent from January 2021 to July 2024, according to the not seasonally adjusted Consumer Price Index (CPI).

“The Democrats are attempting to hoodwink the American people into believing that consumer prices are falling by pointing to the moderating inflation rate. But anyone who goes to a grocery store anecdotally knows this is not the case,” said Alfredo Ortiz, Job Creators Network CEO, in a statement.
