  Before the Biden administration came into power, America under Trump had the second largest welfare state (after France) in the OECD when private funds are included: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-oecd-welfare-idUSKCN1PH0Y2 https://www.reuters.com/article/us-oecd-welfare-idUSKCN1PH0Y... https://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/editorcharts/FRANCE-PROTESTS/0H001JT4R3XX/eikon.png https://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/editorcharts/FRANCE-PR...

  Does anyone think Biden even knows what's going on? He looks like he isn't even there anymore.

    I've heard him described recently as a political yoda. it's apt. he's spry & sharp & listens to good smart people, and he listens to opposition, then he tries to cobble together workable good plans. he has shown good wisdom & acumen. no idea what would give anyone a different impression right now, except for dishonest & slanted agenda-driving propoganda.
