Haven't noticed any difference in my life personally.

SCAM OF A GOVERNMENT WILL SHOW U JUST HOW FUBARED U AND THE NATION REALLY R.

we r on fixed income and consider ourselves "financial excellent", no debt obligations,live within our means,and r far better off than most boomers...HOWEVER, we do not go out for dinners several times a week (standard before), we have shopped for better insurance rates (I had the costly plan F on UHC) we look at "markdowns"in groceries, we were accustom to simply purchasing anything ,at anytime...NOW we re think the purchase...ALL THINGS R ESCALATING IN PRICE....THE BASIC SERVICES AND TAXES R
ARE MORE BURDENSOME AND IT WILL BE WORSE AS TIME PASSES....BECAUSE THE BUSINESS WILL NOT CONTINUE TO EAT THE TARIFFS....I AM GRATEFUL WE R ''OK',,BECAUSE THERE R
MULTITUDES THAT R BEING DESTROYED,AS WE "SPEAK"....CC DEBT IS AT AN ALL TIME HIGH,BECAUSE PEOPLE R FORCED TO USE CC INSTEAD OF CASH AND THEY R NOT PAYING OFF THE BILL IN FULL AT THE END OF THE CYCLE.... IT'S BECOMING A 'SLAVE SOCIETY, SHARE CROPPER'S, THEY R ALWAYS BEHIND AND CAN NEVER GET 'EVEN'.

About time! Ever since Covid-19, governments and Americans have been on a spending spree. The Feds are subsiding everything from Healthcare to school breakfast and lunches for the rich kids.

Time for American citizens, governments, and businesses to do a deep dive on what things cost and how much money is being wasted.

Stop kicking the can down the road, eliminate useless program. Start demanding other nations contribute to poor nations and their own militaries.

GEE,HOW ABSOLUTELY AWESOME U DO NOT SEE THE 'WASTE' OF A MULTI MILLION DOLLAR BALL ROOM AND THE REMODELING OF A BATHROOM ,TO SUIT THE TASTE OF THE OCCUPANT OF THE WHITE HOUSE.....THEY R STILL CONSIDERING KICKING THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD WITH ANOTHER CR.....WHEN DO THE MASSES REALIZE IT'S A PONZI SCHEME AND THEY R THE RECIPIENT OF THE SCAM.?

It is good to see you back on here homeagain. I don't think you will ever admit or understand that our countries tax and spending problem is not centered around Trumps actions and polices that he pushes forward.

Democrats are bemoaning the ballroom but it is a very necessary addition. Having a state dinner in rent a tents on the White House lawn is very Bush league.

WHAT I UNDERSTAND IS THIS.....IT IS A CUMULATIVE AND CATASTROPHIC CLUSTER FUCK.....
IT HAS BEEN FOREVER ,BUT COVID AND TRUMP ! AND 2 JUST BROUGHT ALL THE FACTORS TOGETHER TO CREATE THE PERFECT AND EPIC STORM.....AGAIN THE FOURTH TURNING IS AT PLAY AND IT WILL BE 52 CARD PU FROM HERE ON OUT.....GET IN,GRAB THE BAR AND WATCH WHAT HAPPENS.

You really think this? The economy is doing quite well, stock market is at record highs. Gold is at record highs. Interest rates are declining. Oil has declined for months.

And when will the 4th turning actually happen? Next year? Next decade? Next century?
