Feeding your family and being able to afford to drive to work are "high class problems" according to the people in charge.

SCREENSHOT in case he deletes it:

You might want to write the name "Ronald Klain" down, since you'll probably be hearing it in the near future...

...preceded by the sentence, "President Biden has the utmost confidence in..."

White House Chief of Staff Klain didn't just like this tweet a little, he liked it a lot, with not only the "this" moniker, but the double pointy fingers, too!

Let's take a closer look at the tweet that Klain thought was so savvy and on point.

Most of the economic problems we're facing (inflation, supply chains, etc.) are high class problems. We wouldn't have had them if the unemployment rate was still 10 percent. We would instead have had a much worse problem.

There are really two issues with this tweet, the first being its elitist disconnect from the concerns of typical wage-earning Americans.

I'll excuse Furman for that because he is an elitist disconnected from the concerns of typical wage-earning Americans. He's a Harvard economics professor. Saying inane things that have no impact on anything is what he does. People familiar with the fable, "The Scorpion and the Frog," will understand this:

He couldn't help it: it's in his nature.

Klain, on the other hand, works in the White House and has real power and influence. At a minimum, the tone deafness at a time when people are legitimately worried about how they're going to make ends meet is politically unforgivable.

More than that, it is revealing in a very unintended way. This is a classic case of the "Kinsley gaffe" in which a politician accidentally reveals the truth.

This, my friends, is what they truly believe. This is how they think.

This is them.

It really does explain a lot. It explains how disinterested the Biden Administration seems to be in addressing everyday Americans' actual concerns -- inflation, empty shelves, increasing crime, a border out of control, a drug overdose epidemic -- and yet how enthusiastically they embrace such "high class problems," like whether boys should be able to use women's bathrooms or the possibility that it's going to be a little warmer in a hundred years.

The second problem with the tweet is what some might want to try to cast as an explanation for it. You see, the point Furman was really trying to make (and that Klain supported) was that things could be worse.

We wouldn't have had them if the unemployment rate was still 10 percent. We would instead have had a much worse problem.

But it doesn't survive a second glance.

Look, if your argument is "it could have been worse," you've already lost the argument.

Have you ever tried that on someone whose car just got totaled but they were unhurt?

Sure, you take a moment and thank the Lord above.

But your car is still totaled.

Now imagine hearing that from the same guy who totaled your car.

At the end of the day, that argument is basically admitting that you messed up, but at least you didn't mess up more.

Interesting campaign slogan:

BIDEN: IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE!
