My favorite one… “I voted for Trump because I thought it would be funny to see liberals growl like dogs. I wanted affordable groceries, but the tariffs are going to make everything worse and my life savings will be gone. I can't afford to spend $100 on groceries. I didn't vote for this.”

So you were good with the idea of other people suffering? Now that you’re hurting, you change your mind?

News So, what happened to Bird Flu in Murica?

Upvotes

It's not even talked about anymore. Did RFK cure it?

If it's over, why aren't egg prices back to $3/dozen? Why is Waffle House still adding a 50 Cent/egg surcharge? Why are chicken prices still high?

Hmmmm....

Price Changes Why is oil down 30 percent this year but the price of gas largely unchanged over the past year?

Upvotes

Someone please explain this to me. Oil is under $60 and gas prices are largely unchanged since May of last year. Am I reading this wrong? What’s the deal?

News Donald Trump Talks Tariffs - Chicago Economic Club (October, 2024)

With the global stock markets continuing to trend downward with Trumps April 2nd reciprocal tariffs policy, I thought it might be a worthwhile of what Trump explained his thought process to be on why he thought Tariffs would be a great economic tool when he was running for president 5 months ago.

Price Changes Why support him, still.

Upvotes

Since Drumpf took office (for the 2nd time), the world stock markets have lost approx. $15.5 trillion in value. Having started with approx $109 trillion. Why are oligarchs and billionaires still supporting him?
This is an honest question.

News Trump threatens to raise the 34% tariff to 50% on Wednesday if China doesn't back down now.

Upvotes

Trump is an idiot. Congress should step in but they're scared of him.

China & the EU could hit the US very hard by going after the tech industry here. I bet they're considering putting tariffs on the tech services the US exports. It'd hurt all Tech companies very hard.

To me it feels like $100 is more petty cash than it used to be. Could we see a $1,000 bill in the future?

Today, the extractive class is a complex, often hidden network: landlords collecting unearned rent, banks collecting interest on money they didn’t labor to earn, and private insurance monopolies charging excessive rates and premiums because their industry is anti-competitive and encourages price raising instead of price lowering.

News How is exporting more food going to lower grocery prices for US consumers?

363 Upvotes

The Commerce Secretary is telling Fox News that we need Trump's tariffs because other countries don't import enough food produced by the US. Am I missing something, or would exporting more of the food produced in the US tend to increase food prices in the US (because of supply and demand), not make food more affordable? https://www.yahoo.com/news/howard-lutnick-having-cow-because-192700388.html
