Jeff Bezos blasts Biden for trying to blame gas stations for astronomical prices – and even China mocks the president by claiming he ‘now realizes capitalism is exploitation’
- President Joe Biden pleaded on Twitter the companies that are ‘running gas stations’ to lower their prices ahead of the July 4th holiday
- One of the world’s richest people, Jeff Bezos, responded to the tweet saying in part: ‘Inflation is far too important a problem for the White House to keep making statements like this’
- A Chinese state media representative also replied to Biden’s message saying the president has ‘realized that capitalism is about exploitation’
- Biden has been blasted for seemingly failing to understand the basic law of supply and demand that dictates prices, and drives the United States’ free-market economy
- It comes after the Biden administration failed to sell their ‘gas tax holiday’ plan
- On the same day as Biden’s tweet, Vice President Kamala Harris said that lowering gas prices was ‘probably’ the Biden administration’s top priority
