"Affordability will remain an issue until we get more housing supply" -- Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics.

Rather than increasing supply, how about we reduce demand by deporting 20 million illegals?

I’m genuinely confused about the recession. I do not think things are going well. Jobs aren’t good, housing isn’t good, prices went way up and aren’t coming down. I don’t think wages are trending up. Sure, the stock market is up, but that doesn’t mean the broad economy is good. And the numbers from the UIS government, in my opinion, are probably faked and say something better than what is actually true.

And yet it seems broadly accepted that we are not in a recession now and may not go into a recession. But the UK is, Germany is, Japan is, many countries are in a recession right now. But not the US. Because we spend $1T that we don’t have every 100 days or so, and therefore we are recession-proof.

Seems hinky to me.

"Inflation is cooling..."

In December I paid $1.64 for 18-count Extra Large eggs at Walmart. 3 days ago, I paid $4.82 for the same.

Now we know why they took food prices out of the CPI.

All the while CNN gets smaller and smaller and smaller. Pretty soon they won’t be around.

Funny how multi-millionaires and billionaires vote 90% Democrat.

[Political Junkie Too]

We can't add 5 million people to the economy in just three years and not expect demand to exceed the supply that was balanced for the population that existed before Biden opened the border.

Energy consumption is up.

Food consumption is up.

Water consumption is up.

Housing consumption is up.

Theft is up.

Violent crime is up.

All of these things have economic consequences.
