    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    Agreed with much of your statement, more so I do agree that blaming a president for something is the pot calling the kettle black. We have our own free will to make our own financial choices. The rich get rich regardless who is in power. They may get more rich or less rich but they still...

    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    Thank you! the problem is the CPI has been choosing what to consider in the basket. Its been a floating basket with no consistency. The Core index, surely more informative. The sad thing to me is its driven by "consumption" which in my opinion many are very ignorant or irresponsible in...

    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    7% inflation is not that bad true, But I have a hard time seeing the everyday cost of living going up only 7%. I dont think the inflation metric is accurate or at the least Honest.

    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    Sorry My Friend again the comment got sidetracked. Yet, we are not talking about CPI specifically, we are talking about GDP as a whole. BUT, GDP is generally the final product right? So the cost of goods and services to include the current CPI, to the final output = the GDP. When I stated...

    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    Sorry that was kinda of a comment in jest. Obvious a net profit accounts for inflation. but its a positive number to feel good. If my business grew 2.1% that is not something I would be bragging about. Secondly, when you say it "accounts" thats a loaded statement. because the actual cost...

    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    Thank you very much! @RedFishBlueFish @Threegoofs for your responses. Interesting......as to me the term of Strategic Reserves doesn't match the intent. 1) Selling for a net profit is good, but I would figure those net profits would be used exclusively to re buy at a lower price, since its a...

    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    Sure I am curious. I just thought someone actually knew. Seems though you are speculating as well as you stated. "We Will net" meaning you aren't sure either as you are not sure it happened. As for the real dollar, so the $4billion went back into our general fund, rather than an allocated...

    U.S. economy grew 2.1 percent in 2022, but recession fears linger

    Weird Ignorant question as I have been following this "conversation" in simple terms, (Generically stating) We bought oil when it was like $30/barrel. Filled up the reserves using $USD. World went to...@#$$. Prices went crazy. We sold them at $100/barrel (Generically) So yes we got a...

    [W:#690]McCarthy falls short in first vote for House speaker

    Again kinda of a weird joke, when I saw the Youtube short but the thought, is that if they come out say that it was a trolling "spectacle" meaning it was all done as a joke and the party was not held hostage. It was just to show how the media would easily demonize rather than understand why...

    [W:#690]McCarthy falls short in first vote for House speaker

    Satire, but topic related..... no sure if this was thought of already but, I feel like we are being trolled.... today on a YouTube short there was a "On todays date January 6th" they showed a couple of significant events.....then realized.. If the GOP wants to change the narrative of Jan 6th...

    Donald Trump’s tax returns released by US House committee

    Meaning that the Policy up to 12/22/2022 was NOT a law, Secondly implies that the policy that was in place NEVER implied Annual Audits, This basically further confirms my opinion that PRIOR presidents had select years audited JUST like Trumps. and NOT each year was it audited. FACT Trumps...

    Donald Trump’s tax returns released by US House committee

    I recall him saying he was donating his salary, he made NO mention of where... Semantics.... but exactly..... a "Charitable donation" is different from just sayin donation. HHS and or Government Program/Department is not a 501C3 donation.

    Donald Trump’s tax returns released by US House committee

    Reading the policy further, I now realize something else. There is NOTHING in the policy that states each year is mandatory, It just says that an audit of the POTUS and VPOTUS. Meaning that any or all of the 4 years could be audited. WITH that.. if we are to play semantics.... Can we confirm...

    Donald Trump’s tax returns released by US House committee

    Their statement was that they found things in Trumps Tax return they didnt agree with implying that an Audit did NOT occur. This does NOT confirm that an Audit did NOT occur, this is their statement of Opinion not FACT. The ways an means, I dont recall sending a specific letter to the IRS...

    Donald Trump’s tax returns released by US House committee

    Is there an actual statement by the IRS that stated they did NOT conduct and Audit. Or again, is it the opinion of the Ways and Means committee as they disagree with his tax return. With that, What is the point of releasing his Tax Return, If a policy/audit was not conducted, why was it not...
