This is our clue to stop buying anything but necessity’s. They raise fear that Christmas won’t happen due to this ‘crisis.’ They called in Nat’l guard for hospitals, so why not here? We are having small business Christmas this year and/or handmade. Skew them and their nudging.

Maybe not President, but somehow, he did get snatched up by the regime that is now occupying the White Hut.

Aside from Pete Buttigieg’s other sterling qualities, he is a blithering idiot. That is an idiot without the native good sense to keep his mouth shut.

I don’t think America’s ever had such an utterly stupid and irresponsible administration.

I’m retired - fixed income. I for one am buying a lot of stuff now in anticipation of coming price explosions.

I can’t but think that I’m not alone.

And that’s where the retail sales increases are coming from.
