We shame the politburo with our stubborn clinging to our own selfish need of scarce supplies.

Like my Mom used to say, “figures don’t lie, but liars do figure.” When there is a single source for any information you have to take that information with a grain of salt.

The operation was a success but the patient died.The deficit as a percentage, will be an all time high (non war)
More White House fudging and manipulation of numbers Ping.
