The members of the msm love to cover Drumpf. You know, corporate profits. :coffee:

Actually, newspapers continue to close or shrink, and I’ve heard anecdotally that TV and cable viewership has dropped as well. Social media gives many people their “news” these days. Oh, the inanity. :roll:

I wonder if there's a difference in companies being surveyed? I read something a week or two ago that big business is doing OK but not booming but "Main Street" is booming and much more optimistic.
That would’ve a great sign. :nod:

I'd rather see everybody booming. :nod:

The article talked about how big business is doing OK but not booming so that is negatively impacting the stock market and making people nervous. But if you dive into the Main Street numbers things look really good and there's no reason to panic.

I wonder how many liberals who are appalled by this kind of logic are the same people that say "Fukushima! Chernobyl! Three-Mile Island! Baaaaaaaad" whenever someone brings up nuclear power in spite of it being statistically the safest source of energy per megawatt-hour that there is?

The 2 men -- both white and wearing ski masks -- viciously attacked Jussie as he fought back, but they beat him badly and fractured a rib. They put a rope around his neck, poured bleach on him and as they left they yelled, "This is MAGA country."
These two racist pricks, just happened to know that this one black guy is from a TV show about black people, and stumbled upon him in the early hours of the morning, ready with ski masks, bleach and a noose? Furthermore, they knew he'd be in town and would go to a Subway (and btw, which Subway is open at 2AM?) :suspicious:

It does sound like a setup. I can't imagine MAGA people are also watching Empire. That's a weird Venn diagram intersection for sure. No doubt he was targeted by somebody - certainly not a random attack.

Maybe if they’d have just shot him dead nobody would care

Agreed with Ibanez though - the part about the attackers is a bit fishy

note that the article says police are checking security cams with a passing mention that they have only yet found video of him walking alone

Deficits don't matter and it's a good thing we're still top dog and a safe place to bet on.
The U.S. Treasury Department is set to maintain elevated sales of long-term debt to finance the government’s widening budget deficit, with new issuance projected to top $1 trillion for a second-straight year.

A heightened supply of Treasury securities follows tax cuts and government spending increases implemented under the current administration. That’s darkening a fiscal outlook already made worrisome by rising entitlement-program expenses and higher costs to service America’s nearly $16 trillion in debt. The Federal Reserve’s balance-sheet runoff is also adding to supply, forcing Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin to tap the public for more funding.

GDP isn't a great number to show the health of an economy. If we spend more money on crack for our whores, it shows as a positive...or something like that.

Anyhoo...hooray! We're only the 8th worst!
