The Economy

[Bray123]

If you think the taxes are just on billionaires you're dumber than I first thought you were.



Yea, and the blue shit holes are feeling it GOOD.



Nope...wrong again.

Better luck next time.

Tax hikes are on everyone but the already-rich, duh.

Why do you hate America so much?

It's not just automotive, it crosses other products.

And consumers are getting nervous.

Here's what your elected MAGAts are doing while they are actively not fixing their shutdown.

Meanwhile, a good chunk of his constituents will be enjoying the effects of the bbb with increased health care costs. Maybe he should listen to MTG.

 

[Chadrone]

The economy thread isn’t the place for your wacko rant about nothing.

Then why are you here? That's all you do.

 

[Chadrone]

Tax hikes are on everyone but the already-rich, duh.

Nope, that's the Demcorat lie you slopped up like a good little boot licker.

Why do you hate America so much?

I don't that's why I'm not a communist stain like you.

I don't that's why I'm not a communist stain like you.

You confuse nobody but yourself. You celebrate that blue states are feeling the tax rises almost as much as red states, but you call those areas (which subsidize most red states) 'shit holes'.

Dear Ma and Pa MAGA,

You keep saying Donald Trump is “America First.”
And I want to know why.

Because in this America, the one here on planet Earth, everything’s on fire except his damn ego.

Groceries are up 0.6 percent this month.
Up 2.7 percent since last year.
Meat, poultry, fish, and eggs are up 5.6 percent.
Beef is up almost 14 percent and now at it’s highest price in American history.
Ground beef is $6.63 a pound, up 13 percent.
Chicken is $2.08 a pound, up 4 percent.
Fresh vegetables are up 3 percent.
Even restaurants raised prices almost 4 percent.

Families are swapping ribeyes for ramen, doing math in the checkout line, and hoping the bank account holds out longer than the groceries do.

Inflation is up. GDP is down.
Unemployment is the highest it’s been in four years.
Small businesses are bleeding out.
Farmers are broke.
Infrastructure is frozen.

The government is literally shut down.

But Trump’s 200 million dollar ballroom at the White House is still getting built.
Apparently “America First” means chandeliers before soldiers and gold toilets before groceries.

While you are deciding whether to buy chicken or gas, Mr. “America First” is out in the Middle East calling himself a “peacemaker.”

And he just approved a 20 billion dollar bailout for Argentina.

Not for you.
Not for the farmers he conned.
For his hedge fund billionaire friends, so they don’t lose money on bad bets.

He just said it out loud.
“Well, bailing out Argentina doesn’t help our country very much.”
Umm, you think?

Then why the hell did he do it?
Because it helps him.
Because everything he does is for himself, not this country.

He is using your money to make his donors richer while Americans are clipping coupons like it’s a second job.

That’s not patriotism.
That’s bullshit in a red hat.

Chicken is up. Bread is up. Gas, rent, insurance, all up.
Your paycheck is flat.
Your savings are gone.
Your country is running on fumes.

But sure, tell me again how this is “America First.”
Because all I see is Donald Trump First.
Gold ceilings before school lunches.
Foreign bailouts before family dinners.
His name in gold before your grocery list in red.

He doesn’t care about your bills, your job, or your kids.
He cares about his brand, his bank account, and the next foreign check that clears.

He isn’t America First.
He is Donald Trump First.
Always has been.
Always will be.

And America?
We are the ones footing the bill, so he can bail out billionaires and build a ballroom.

Because it’s Donald Trump First.
America Last.
Every damn time.

"NO YOU!!!" LOL pathetic.

You celebrate that blue states are feeling the tax rises almost as much as red states, but you call those areas (which subsidize most red states) 'shit holes'.

Look who's still confused and as backwards as it gets.

Blue states aren't taxes almost as much as red states....they are by far the most taxed.

They are also the biggest shit holes, that's why they are fleeing to red states.

 

[Chadrone]

So well said.

It's fuckin' retarded.

If you can't see why the person who doesn't hate normal people to their faces is winning their votes you deserve the loss's you're suffering currently.

You're going to keep losing until you stop hating America to it's face too.

Do any of you Wallstreet wizards know what the federal reserve's "Repurchase agreement facility" is? Or it's function? Or the importance of it’s status? Or what the facilities numbers represent? In regards to the economy, liquidity of the cash supply?..... most likely not? Welp Wallstreet wizards, it zeroed out yesterday, yupper that's correct zeroed out....
This dumpster fire has been burning long....long before Donald Trump presidency ..... it is congress whom spends, taxs and steals your money..... 50 years of of bullshit emanating from your legislators....

Your kind snivel and bitch about the cost of everything BUT you've got no problem giving the wetbacks free money, Healthcare (Medicare, medicaid ect...) snap, ebt, housing subsidies and the list continues.....Oh... I nearly neglected the fucking billions that the Biden crime family gave to Ukraine....
You are receiving everything you so righteously deserve......
Now back to the federal reserve.......... ya might apply some study time to the repurchase agreement facility, if you can comprehend the magnitude of it being zeroed out?
Anyway life is on the cusp of being infinitely more difficult.....may it become everything that it promises to be......

It doesn’t mean whatever weird thing you think it means.

The last time it was this low was during Donnie’s first term in office.

Unfortunately for your weird doomsday prediction, bank reserves held at the Fed have been steady for years. Source

And please don’t post more conspiracy lunacy in the economy thread. Thanks.

You’re one dumb cunt. Take ten minutes to research quality of life stats state by state, education, safety, average income, health care, fitness etc.. and the vast majority of the last 25 are red states. Blue states, typically offer, better education, better health care and quality of life. But your dumb cunt ass can’t see because you’re to busy licking trumps taint. I live in the healthiest and happiest state, according to your own governments research and guess what fuckwit? It’s a deep blue state.
