  1. yeah that's how sovereign currencies work. Multiple currencies would dampen the governments ability to provision itself

  2.  @jasonmorgan27  if you're worried about inflation you're going to hate trump's 10% tarrif plan

  3.  @craigholland2274  it's a tax on consumers. If he really wanted to reshore manufacturing, why did he reduce taxes on profits generated abroad to 0?

  4.  @akidwithaclub  i agree, far better metrics are unemployment, growth and inflation. All of which are doing exceptionally well. Unemployment near all time lows, we're by far the fastest growing in the world, and inflation has been below the fed target over the past 6 months. But of course this is the part where people cope by saying all the numbers are fake

  5.  @joelellis7035 Yes, you're right, we're the fastest growing in the g7, that's still expectional. Prime age participation is at multi decade highes. they don't stop counting you after 6 months as long as you're still looking for a job. The year over year core inflation numbers are lagging, core inflation over the past 6 months is at the fed target

  6.  @joelellis7035  It is, but like i said, growing at the fastest rate among the g7 is exceptional. Your claim that you are no longer counted after 6 months is still nonsense. On target means 2%. That isn't avoiding the numbers. Like i said, you're clingin onto laggin numbers from a year ago, we're at 2% over the past 6 months

  7.  @joelellis7035  The unemployment rate is not detemrined by the number of people receiving unemployment benefits. And why do you keep ignoring the core inflation rate over the past 6 months? is that not 2%? If you don't think an annualized growth rate of 8% over the past 2 quarters is exceptional growth, i don't know what to tell you

  8.  @joelellis7035  Again, the unemployment data is not conditioned on the number of people receiving unememployment benefits. This BLS conducts a monthly survey that involves 60,000 households. These households are selected using random sampling methods designed to generate as close an approximation as possible to the larger population. And like i mentioned earlier, prime age labor participation is far more useful for assessing the labor market than simple participation, because the elderly move out of work for all sorts of reasons, and prime age participation is at multi-decade highs. Also like i said, core inflation over the past 6 months has been at 2%, i don't know what you don't understand about this. Do you acknowedge this as a fact? You annualize growth on a quarterly basis, and the 3% unnualized growth last quarter and the 4.9% annualized growth the quarter before that absolutely qualify as exceptional growth

  9. ​ @joelellis7035 Like i said, the unemployment numbers are not based on unemployment benefits, they're determined when the BLS conducts a monthly survey called the that involves 60,000 households. These households are selected using random sampling methods designed to generate as close an approximation as possible to the larger population. And also like i said, prime age labor force participation is much better at gauging the health of the labor market because the elderly leave the work force for all sorts of reasons, especially after covid. Prime age participation is at multi decade highs. Are you denying that core inflation over the past 6 months is 2%? You annualize growth quarterly, and the annualized growth rate for the past 2 quarters was 4.9% and 3% respectively. That is phenominal growth

  13. they obviously can, this is just to speed up trump's delay tactics

  14.  @yvonnehudson7100  im just sayin, if we're going to to trust the polls, we should also trust the polls that show people are way less likely to vote for him if he becomes a convicted felon

  15.  @Garvak  especially since many moderates were uweilling to vote for people like him even before the convictions. Republicans won the popular vote in 22 and still did terribly.

  16. Trump is probably more likely to act based on his gut than Haley, she'd do as her handlers advise

  17. only reason to want a delay is because he thinks they'll rule against him

  19. if the dfl control everything doesn't that mean that's what the people want? Isn't that the point of having states do their own thing?

  20.  @mudbucket1650  why is 1 or 2 person majority not a mandate when you also need at least that majority in the senate aswell plus the governorship. I think a trifecta is a pretty high bar to clear, and whichever party achieves that should be allowed to govern. And regarding the abortion thing, their law hardly changes anything from the one that was already on the books, it's also illegal and contrary to all medical codes of ethics for a doctor to perform an abortion after about 20 weeks unless the mothers life is in danger or something is seriously wrong with the child I've never really understood the "big cities override rural voters" thing. Do you think peoples votes should count for less just because they live in a city? Do you think city votes should count for more than rural votes in places like alabama?

  36.  @ReformedSauron  latest polls have Trump getting destroyed with indies. And 2022 showed indies don't like the direction of the gop at all. Wouldn't be surprised if dems flip NC

  39.  @smelltheglove2038  they've printed trillions over the past year and inflation has only gone down in that time

  40.  @smelltheglove2038  yeah, that's how inflation works. Prices go up and then wages go up to meet it. inflation has gone up 17% since the pandemic and wages have gone up 20%. And they do deserve a lot of credit for bringing gas prices down, 2023 set the all time record for US oil production
