Economist, husband and girl dad trying to survive 3 more years of the Orange Menace and ensure my daughter retains the rights that her mom and grandmas enjoyed.

Added cover picture of East Wing of White House at sunset when it still existed.
For those that rent, the past 5 years have not been easy. Fortunately, rent price increases have come down recently.

But when rent goes up faster than median wages, which it has the past 5 years, it forces people to be more frugal on other items. And nobody likes that, except landlords.

Yep, East Wing will be missed, and replaced with McMansion ballroom.

Lest one need further proof. The King is mad, as like totally insane I mean.

Prices of goods are going to rise a lot soon. If there is something you need to buy that is produced outside the US and can be easily stored, then you should buy it. Shoes, clothes, auto parts, and China products. This assumes that firms haven’t started raising prices already or aren’t sold out.

If only we had listened to Ferris Bueller’s Economics teacher. Seen at Sacramento Capitol demonstration.
