It's going to be hard for mom and dad to home school their kids when they'll have to work a shift at the factory, then run over to the town with a 24-hour gas station to get a shift there. Of course, those jobs could all flame out if gas and diesel prices keep rising. We will look back on some small ghost towns and remember when they had a gas station and cafe before the economy crashed in the '20s. (Pun intended). #indiana #uspol #economy

oh hey i found it! i knew i kept it xD I led a tiny group of people (we called it an "informational protest" down at Westlake with this for hours. Had a lot of good conversations but, well. Funniest part was the Roaches* trying to get in on our bit and me physically chasing them off. Never let LaRouchites into your party. (Are they even still around? Look 'em up.) #protest #economy

Oh, also of interest: the headlines note that there were the most dissenters on this rates decision since 1992. Since people were looking for a rate cut the implication is that the dissenters wanted one. That is NOT CORRECT. There were four dissents. _One_ wanted an immediate rate cut, as context around the headlines would imply. The other three wanted the forward-looking possible-rate-cut-languge _removed_. They wanted no rate cut now, and they wanted the suggestion of a rate cut at the next meeting _taken out_, meaning they expect higher inflation. This is the opposite of the contextual headline implication and one should take it onboard for one's inflation expectations accordingly. #economy #InterestRates #FedReserve #inflation

This is not financial advice and I am not a financial advisor, but my inflation expectations are more in line with those of the dissenters. People see the gas/diesel price shocks. Most people aren't yet really seeing the shipping price shocks. The goods price shock hasn't hit yet, but it absolutely will; if you look you can see it coming. As for food, well, people are seeing a little foods price shock but it's mostly transportation impacts passed along so relatively low-key so far for most, but if fertiliser supplies don't get sorted - China's helping with that in eastern Asia, sharing from their considerable reserves stockpile - the hard impacts will be four to six months off. #economy #InterestRates #FedReserve #prices #inflation

They have BYDs in Mexico. I've seen cars from Mexico with Mexican license plates around Northwest Indiana, so their cars are visiting the US. BYDs from Mexico are cruising around in California right now and people in the US are seeing them. https://youtu.be/p7-85RO1-gM #cars #ev #uspol #economy #china

The decision centers on #tariffs imposed under an “emergency” powers #law, including the sweeping “reciprocal” #tariffs he levied on nearly every other country on earth. It’s the first major piece of Trump’s broad agenda to come squarely before the nation’s highest court, which he helped shape with the appointments of 3 conservative jurists in his first term. #law #economy #geopolitics #Trump #SCOTUS #affordability #inflation #CostOfLiving

#Trump has been very vocal about the case, calling it one of the most important in #US #history & saying a ruling against him would be an economic body blow to the country. But #legal opposition crossed the political spectrum, including #libertarian & pro-#business groups that are typically aligned with the #GOP. Polling has found tariffs are NOT broadly popular with the public, amid wider voter concern about #affordability. #law #economy #geopolitics #SCOTUS #inflation #CostOfLiving

@Infoseepage@mastodon.social @ChristosArgyrop@mastodon.social @thatdnaguy@genomic.social the problem is that this #Scam - #Economy is so obvious and yet continues that it makes #Enron's #Accounting look legitimate and fine by comparison… The moment this shit (inevitably!) explodes, it'll get nasty…

RE: https://flipboard.com/@pbsnewshour/nation-c4vegjmfz/-/a-subUZ2G4Qz6LmEF8t2-HWw%3Aa%3A2651838374-%2F0 PBS talk to Columbia's Karen Young about fuel shortages in east Asia, and attempts to control demand in response. So far Europe, the US, and higher-reserve countries in Asia are mostly seeing price impacts on transportation so far. It'll take 3-4 _months_ in some areas (Kuwait in particular) to fully restart wells, and those won't restart until portside storage is drawn down enough to provide a destination. So add the 45(ish) days transit time, and you're looking at, oh... 5-6 months of follow-on impacts and upwards price pressure just for crude oil. And that, of course, doesn't even get into the price impacts on derived products, which are legion. #FuckTrump #FuckTheGOP #FuckRepublicans #fascism #news #IranWar #iran #war #oil #economy

Trump’s war is the cause of higher prices across the country. Trump calls it fakeflation. Coward. He’s not even man enough to own up to the mess he’s caused. Americans deserve better than a tired old clown posing as President. #trump #IranWar #iran #inflation #epstein #EpsteinFiles #middleeast #MAGA #republicans #economy #news #politics #worldnews
