As rising costs continue to outpace Americans’ wages, families are burning through crucial emergency and retirement funds to stay afloat in Joe Biden’s America. According to two new surveys, 67% of Americans are now draining their savings and a quarter of Americans are reporting they will delay their retirement because of this 40-year high inflation.
MAKE NO MISTAKE: Inflation is a tax on ALL Americans. Joe Biden and House Democrats’ out-of-control government spending over the past year and half is costing millions of Americans their future.
