Trump and Amrica are winning and the libs are depressed and psychotic.

How sick are you when the only thing that brings you joy is the suffering of Americans? Crime is going down, rapists and murderers are being arrested and kicked out of our country. Waste of taxpayer money is being exposed and stopped. Egg and gas prices are coming down, inflation is slowing. Young children are no longer beng exposed to drag queens across the country and the libs can't stand it.

Trump approved a CR yesterday to continue that level of spending.


Trump IMO is buying time to continue doing what needs to be done to repair America until a single spending bill can be passed. You obviously don’t believe this is true, whereas I and most others here do.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Amazing, inflation comes in under 3% which means possibly more rate cuts around the corner and stocks still go down


I’m Convinced the big hedge funds are intentionally tanking the market just to hurt Trump

The increase was lower than expected. Prices are still moving up.

Prices for goods and services moved up less than expected in February

Food and energy indexes both increased 0.2%. Used vehicle prices jumped 0.9% and apparel rose 0.6%. Within food, egg prices soared another 10.4%, taking the 12-month increase to 58.8% and pushing a broader measure that also includes meat, poultry and fish up 7.7% on the year. Beef prices also climbed 2.4% in February.

You’re an idiot. It’s right in the target inflation zone year over a year.


When you say, “Year over year”, thats a nuanced way of saying “average”.

This simple summation brushes over the causes of inflationary peaks and valleys. Government borrowing and spending, monetary policy, as well as technological advances are the big 3 drivers of the value of a dollar.

In years with wars, lockdown recovery, ie. government borrowing and spending as well as large consumer demand, inflation rises substantially.

After-recovery years, and years of sustained growth (ie. Extra cash being used up) AND without government spending sprees, the inflation rate goes way low, under 2%.

We are in a ”post-recovery” period from the plandemic lockdowns, but we had a numbskull POTUS in Biden who SPENT money to lower inflation. That money is still pushing around, and the government is still borrowibg and spending like crazy.

Thats why the “post-recovery” phase that we are in still has us with 2.8 inflation, instead of a more appropriate 1.8.

I’m just saying, we should not be celebrating 2.8 at this juncture. Its an improvement, yes, good, but it better get lower unless there’s another war/crisis.

The thing is, we are over a barrel in terms of debt. We are going to have a really hard time spending our way out of future crises.

Stocks going down is good for wise investors! Stop worrying about a temporary hiccup, focus on buying healthy stocks in the down turn and reap $$$ when the market inevitable turns around.Easy money!

Fuel prices have dropped. Fuel costs affect everything.

Lower energy. Lower cost
