    The majority of the US population is enjoying these outcomes of government policies: Economic inequality, inflation, stagnant real wages for the last fifty years, costly healthcare, an expensive education system, student loan debt totaling $1.7 trillion with an average balance of $38,000, poor public transportation systems, racial inequality, mass incarceration, the militarization of police, deteriorating infrastructure, housing affordability, homelessness, the opioid epidemic, and gun violence. Instead of prioritizing the welfare of their people, they meddle in other countries to spread their version of democracy.

    I make $100,000 year and I’ve got nothing to show for it 🤷‍♂️. 1/3 of my pay goes into taxs. 1/3 into cost of living, more taxs, 401k, benefits cost. Leaves me with $33,000 year or $635 week or $90 day. I live in Hawaii so $90 don’t go far when I need to make truck payments, buy gas, new clothing, going out and having fun.

    The worst thing anyone can do in these times is getting into Credit Card Debt. Its extortion from these card crooks, and its a trap leaving you harder and harder to get out of. Don't do it.

    I mean is this information you’re saying a surprise because you said the markets were surprised I don’t think it’s a surprise. It’s the result of the damage over the last two years that is their goal is to slow the economy down not control inflation that has to fix itself through the consumer who just doesn’t buy anymoresooner or later they’ll have enough
