The Biden administration has failed to take responsibility for the ongoing economic disaster, which has resulted in the supply chain crisis.
Kamala Harris said the situation was due to workers not making enough money.
The CBS station in western Pennsylvania said ahead of its interview with Harris:
“Empty shelves for consumers and missing parts for local manufacturers — it all adds up to inconvenience and now an inflation rate of 5.4 percent in September."
“On Wednesday, President Joe Biden said the delays in unloading ships with products at America’s ports require a 24/7 approach, nonstop unloading of ships.”

Harris was asked what the Biden administration was doing “to alleviate these problems in western Pennsylvania and throughout the nation?”
But Harris deflected by claiming the problem began before she and Biden were elected.
“It’s a big issue for western Pennsylvania, throughout the nation, and actually a global issue,” Harris said.
“The supply chain issue also actually predated the pandemic, but it’s been highlighted during the pandemic.”
The interview failed to push back and instead asked if the 24/7 work plan would solve the problem “short term.”

Harris responded by saying it would, but blamed worker pay as a reason for the supply chain problems.
“But listen, part of it is also saying, let’s take care of workers,” Harris said.
“This also needs to be about paying workers their value, paying the wages that reflect the value of their work.”
Harris failed to say what she believed was the most important part of the multi-trillion dollar “infrastructure” bill Democrats are trying to make law.
She said it answering the question would be “like asking you to pick your favorite child, right?”
“They are all important,” Harris said.
