December 15, 20214 yr Since I'm googling.... Quote Inflation has taken away all the wage gains for workers and then some Real average hourly earnings when accounting for inflation, actually decreased 0.5% for the month. A 0.9% inflation increase negated a 0.4% rise in wages. Consumer confidence has been sliding despite the rising wages, which are up nearly 5% nominally year over year but have declined 1.2% in real terms. The Fed finds itself under increasing pressure to adjust policy accordingly. Looks like peoples ability to purchase the presents for their children is being taken away. Stolen if you will.

Pat yourself on the back… a meme in 2021 isn’t false even though it’s a 50 year problem. Let’s blame democrats because they have the presidency RIGHT NOW. Context isn’t important.

Both guest rooms will be full and part of the basement will become a suit for 4 for 3 or 4 days. I have a buffet style meal for Christmas eve, mostly Italian foods with a smoked ham thrown in. Then Christmas I have a huge prime rib to smoke. Holy super spreader

December 15, 20214 yr Wasn't sure of which thread this belongs in..... One of my clients is headquartered in a defund the police city and I have to listen to a "return to work" meeting. While the safety portion was great schadenfreude, especially when talking about how to handle the protests they've experienced since the BLM riots started, this slide took the cake for me
