that was basically it. short of siccing the irs on them there’s not a lot the executive branch can do about it… of course that’d kill the golden goose named “campaign contributions”, so it wont happen
It will be harder to pass new laws in the current Congress, but he still has control over the executive branch. Hopefully some existing laws could be used.
I mean, you wouldn’t want the politicians to lose their legal bribes generous donations over acting in our interests instead of the corporations, would you?
Will someone please think of the rich folks pockets?
Because this is just more of that “enlightened centrist both sides baaaaaaad” bullshit that dumbasses invoke whenever they want to diminish the power of one side, thus actually strengthening the other side, while claiming that they don’t care about sides at all, even though they just can’t stop themselves from only sputtering it out when it’s the dems doing something.
And after trump if you still believe both sides are the same then you are certifiably brain dead.
It’s because I said bad things about Biden, even though I was talking about politicians as a whole. But you can’t say bad things about Biden or be any kind of critical about the current administration without getting trashed on here.
Cool. So what’s he gonna do about it? Or was this it?

Nothing the IRS can do, either.
Windfall taxes is a thing they can use. If companies raise their prices too fast the excess profit gets taxed at a higher rate.
Need the House for that tho.

He appointed the most aggressive FTC head in decades who is using the antitrust law we have to currently go after Google and Amazon.
She’s also fighting a merger between Kroger and Albertsons, which would drastically raise grocery prices.
The FTC is also fighting the hedge fund buyout of preciously independent healthcare clinics, which has massively ramped up medical costs.
Not to mention breaking the real estate agent fee monopoly.
His executive branch has been busy as hell trying to help people.
Don’t tell us facts. We’ve already decided to believe whatever the fuck we want regardless. /s
Biden should be waving the magic wand! I am mad that he is not doing this!
He’ll hire their execs to run various government agencies

How is it possible that people don’t understand the implied “/s” here??? Or am I missing some other reason for the downvotes?
FWIW, I thought your comment was great. Gave me quite a chuckle! :-D

They understand it and are angry because they’re being called out.

I mean it was because you’re wrong and your comment was stupid, but enjoy your victimization, I guess!
