Yep. It was people that I worked with complaining about how expensive stuff is but they just bought a new 80k car and other stuff too. Not knocking people for how they spend their money. But you don't have a inflation problem you have a consumption problem. If your car not is more than your mortgage and then you're complaining that you have to cut back because groceries are too high you're moving wrong in life lol

Good point and did anybody notice how malls and stores are packed again? Did trump supporters try to sabotage the economy or are they scared that Tariffs are about to bump up all of these prices?

People have not stopped consuming in the slightest. All the metrics that are used to track consumer spending have maintained. The malls are packed because it's the holiday season. But people are constantly complaining about the prices but still consuming. Be it their actual money or debt.

Traffic is bad in the DMV since I moved. Depending where I’m working. Taking 295 in the mornings to get into the city is always bad. 495S coming back to Alexandria. Gets bad around 3. It never fails. Hell I was working last night coming back on 495 Sunday 330 pm traffic.

Which is why I get to work at 5:00 a.m. so I can leave at 2:30. Traffic is too heavy any later than that.

There would be blood in the streets if he cut 75% of the federal workforce

There’s a lot of republicans in the government world that voted for Trump.

That wake up call is going to be beautiful.
