Yet the jobs numbers are improving. Shelves in the stores I hit are mostly full (cat food...damn. the dog side if the aisle seems fine, but I got chicken, whitefish & sardines, & turkey on the canned cat food side? The dogs are getting it, aren't they& the beef for the salmon & beef) So why they still pitching doom & gloom? Did you see Fox disavowed Tucker's Patriot special? Even they know not to go too far
Because Inflation is coming? Because the stores still haven't returned to normal?
I did not see either one.
FOX has apparently been abandoned by many of it's years long followers as it shifts to the Left (supposedly at the behest of Murdock's progressive son)
What did Tucker say that went too far? And is there even such a thing anymore? Your peeps opened that can of worms

Americans have never been in so much debtBy Anneken Tappe, CNN Business Updated 12:00 PM ET, Tue November 9, 2021 www.cnn.com/2021/11/09/economy/fed-household-debt-inflation/index.html?fbclid=IwAR3W5vmMzBlJpVlz1UsAiEhWMBqYpf5ZoJSKN37nNwmHP5j00Sfb_V1uN60New York (CNN Business)American households are carrying record amounts of debt as home and auto prices surge, Covid infections continue to fall and people get out their credit cards again. Between July and September, US household debt climbed to a new record of $15.24 trillion, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York said Tuesday. It was an increase of 1.9%, or $286 billion, from the second quarter of the year. "As pandemic relief efforts wind down, we are beginning to see the reversal of some of the credit card balance trends seen during the pandemic," such as lower spending in favor of paying down debt balances, said Donghoon Lee, research officer at the New York Fed. Now that the stimulus sugar rush has worn off, consumers are going back to their old ways of spending with their credit cards. Credit card balances rose by $17 billion, just as they had during the second quarter. But they're still $123 bullion lower than at the end of 2019 before the pandemic hit. Mortgages, which are the largest component of household debt, rose by $230 billion last quarter and totaled $10.67 trillion. Auto loans and student loan balances also increased, rising by $28 billion and $14 billion, respectively. Even though credit card debt has yet to get back to its pre-pandemic level, total debt is already $1.1 trillion higher than at the end of 2019. High spending spurred by even higher inflation

Household debt totaled $15.24 trillion in the third quarter, a 1.9% increase from the previous period.
Rising prices pushed up balances for mortgages and auto loans.
Student loans increased slightly while credit card balances nudged higher to reverse a pandemic-era trend.
Household debt passed $15 trillion for the first time in the third quarter, as rising prices pushed up balances for homes and autos, the New York Federal Reserve reported Tuesday.
Mortgages rose 2.2% to nearly $10.7 trillion, and autos increased $28 billion as part of an overall $286 billion increase in debt that brought the total household burden to $15.24 trillion. That’s up 1.9%, or $286 billion, from the second quarter.
The household debt growth represented a 6.2% gain from the same period a year ago.

 But the problem of it being added as an incentive is it doesn't raise the base pay for raises. It's the same game my employer played giving bonuses-sure it was nice getting $1500, but it basically equalled 5 cents an hour without giving it to is so the raise was off the hourly pay, not the bonus. Yet employers can't keep employees. |

Let's argue about which third is which here. 
I do not even get churches anymore. They're abandoning some of their core beliefs.......so what's the point anymore?
Why not endorse the Buddy Jesus like Carlin did in Dogma at this point?

I don't recall much arson and looting when the rich rob the poor
Have we changed the definition of violence now, too?

There have been no attempts whatsoever to limit and infringe on gun owners in all these years?
Do you ever just sit back in astonishment that guns and abortion are still such key subjects for voting?
Guns have a long way to go to keep up with abortion, by the way

What have they done? The assault rifle thing which is gone now, right? What gun rights have they removed from you that you so desperately despite them? There are States with 1 abortion clinic. Any states with 1 gun store? |
