Things are more expensive everywhere you go and it's not like everyone is making more money. In fact, even reports on CNN say people are tapping into their retirement funds just to afford daily living. It's a shame how bad things are right now with prices being out of control, rent and mortgages off the wall, people getting $15 an hour just to put a piece of hamburger on a roll, and everything is literally a mess. But hey, Kamala Harris claimed that other people predicted a recession but her and Joe Biden, the worst president and vice president I've ever seen, have "delivered strong and steady growth." I'm pretty sure no one believes anything she says, because what's growing? Can anyone point it out? The cost of everything is growing and my salary isn't, that's what I see.

Kamala Harris talked all her nonsense while in Philadelphia today, a city where I can't name a single person who supports her or likes her - and this is where I'm from, so there's that. Here's what the report on NBC Philadelphia said:

Vice President Kamala Harris, on Tuesday, visited Philadelphia to announce changes to labor rules that could give higher wages to construction workers on federal projects.

At the headquarters of labor union DC 21, in Northeast Philly, Harris detailed the Labor Department's first update in decades to the Davis-Bacon Act of 1931, a law that requires the payment of prevailing local wages on public works.

"When union wages go up, everybody's wages go up," she said.

The new rule is something of a return to the past in that it will use the definition of prevailing wage that the Labor Department previously used from 1935 to 1983, likely raising the hourly earnings of contractors and subcontractors.

More than a million construction workers with jobs on roughly $200 billion worth of federally supported projects will benefit, the Democratic vice president's office said in an emailed statement.

The new rule “will mean thousands of extra dollars per year in workers’ pockets to help put a down payment on a home, save for retirement, or simply have more breathing room,” the statement said.

While workers would earn more money, critics such as the Associated Builders and Contractors say the new rule will make construction projects more expensive for taxpayers.
