Everything is awesome, the second term has been nothing but an unequivocal success and no one who has any complaints is a real American

The U.S. would either be flirting with a recession or in the middle of a recession (2 consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth) without all the data center buildouts.

It's not good.


The US would be in a recession if we didnt produce. Wow that a profound statement

So because people go to steakhouses and baseball games that means no one is struggling with the cost of living? I’ve never understood that argument.

It has always been a throw away argument

Are you saying Americans were responsible with credit cards before we had an influx of illegal immigrants?

Most Americans don’t even have $1000 for an emergency.


You really are a dumbshat.

Do you know how someone gets that credit card? They tie it to their pay and can deduct it.

SoFi Stadium is home to the NFL's Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers. Because its naming rights sponsor, SoFi (Social Finance), built its brand on student loan refinancing, personal loans, and debt consolidation, fans frequently mock the venue online by calling it the "payday loan stadium" or the "unpayable student loan stadium".

So before SoFi stadium Americans were responsible with credit cards? Talk about dumb.

You are a god damn imbecile. People going to ball games or the mall or on vacation and running up credit cards doesn’t mean the economy is ‘strong’

The line for poor seems to be climbing higher and higher.

Don’t like rampant inflation of every single product outside of TV’s? Poor.

Don’t like $4.50 gasoline? Poor.

Don’t think rising interest rates is a great thing for everyone? Poor.

Everyone who didn’t make their money on the backs and in the engineered wake of the last government-induced financial crisis—-poor.

About $2 gas? No.

I would still bitch if gas was inflated—no matter the price— if the inflation was solely the result of a poorly planned, poorly executed war that no one wanted and that accomplished nothing meaningful.

Where you were using mortgages that nobody gets for Biden and then trying to use regular conventional mortgages for Trump? Trump has been a god damn disaster. You told us he would have mortgage rates in the 4’s and $2.00 gasoline. You also told us Warsh would be cutting rates

The problem is the Fed is like a doctor with but one tool ... a hammer.

You come to the doctor with a bad headache. He asks you to remove your right shoe. Then he whacks your big toe with the hammer. As you are hopping around, holding your foot, howling in pain, he asks "How's your headache now?"

WTF is the Fed raising rates going to do, if the cause of inflation is Iranian oil disruption?

It’s all just pretend. We humans have really created some elaborate systems of make believe to make ourselves feel important and superior to our fellow men.

If I wanted to make you laugh (or scream?), I’d start discussing the oppressive nature of our monetary system.


I’ve only ever taken one Econ class and it was a winter or summer intersession class so super abbreviated and expedited but I do remember quite a bit 20 years later. The professor said our economy “needs” inflation to encourage people to spend money instead of saving it.
