Not once did they say "tax".
FoxNews is responsible for the dumbing down of America.
Not a single one could have passed my Freshman Econ class.

Say it with me... 401K and change in dividends.
Add change in makeup of "young" family, more headed by single women. Couples w/o kids, more dual income households.
Increase in HS dropouts.
Shift in tech?
Reagan/Congress did some shortsighted things, but there are dozens of structural reasons.

Lumber as of 9 a.m. EDT.
Add in 9% passthrough due to Tariffs on Canadian products.
25% on the stuff coming from Baltic region.
Mills in Pacific NW are running at reduced capacity for maintenance.
Housing affordability becomes harder when the Gov. places barriers to pricing.

Apparently you can't tell the difference between a person and a location?
Specifically said I wouldn't play for Netanyahu etc.

You're speaking of inequality of access, not a construct of politics.
Simply by clicking your link, I was able to enjoy your art. Particularly the sunset in the 3rd row.
You didn't ask politics, religion, gender, or any other factor. You democratized viewing simply by allowing access.

Sunday Data Point - #Medicare Payments
Calculating the payments back to States from the Federal doesn't include Medicare.
2023 data shows CA outpacing receipt of payments by $10's of Billions over other States.
For those arguing CA net-payer status? It's not quite what people argue.

Seriously Comcast?
Even with TVs using the streaming app (it's slow garbage that lacks functionality), the bill is getting abusive.

Fiscal Dominance - Federal Reserve versus Government in a game of Chicken.
Central Bank can't respond in a way Trump wants.
Trump can't stop increasing Federal Deficit.
As they said in Highlander "There can be only One!"
Rates will need to stay high until inflation effects of tariffs show in data.

Republican views in the 1st 2 categories should be what interest people.
Now that some are getting a better education on the importance of immigration, their views are shifting.
Expect to see a shift in policy before '26 Election cycle.
Stephen Miller is a POS... just a reminder!

Regressive Taxes are fun to study and mapping the nature of how the current Administration has constructed them. Because Tariffs are, by definition, a consumption tax.
I'll be curious to see how state Sales Tax are affected by changing consumption.

You go into a disaster area and the couture choice is Green Keds? (Add in the flipped semi for background.)
Melania... a pair of boots, steel tipped boots.
The total lack of empathy is bothersome. Get some mud on your shoes.

Trump needs Powell out of office to make the math of OBBA work long-term.
The amount of pushback renovations at the Fed at getting (seriously, normal price escalation over 7 years?) shows the path they've chosen.

This "book" was delivered to my office by the DNC?
The note attached mentioned the advice I'd had given about changing an aspect of their Economic Messaging.
