Feds gotta leave the damn interest rates alone for a change.
No signs of inflation but there is a worldwide slowdown that hasn't hit the USA ( praise Trump) but it will.

Congress has to pass NAFTA 2 ( Dems are already complaining about a better trade deal -go figure)

Lighthizer and Trump need to decide what the end game is gonna be with China as well

why do the poorly educated cracka goyim vote against their self interest?

Fear is Why Workers in Red States Vote Against Their Economic Self-Interest


For years political scientists have wondered why so many working class and poor citizens of so-called “red” states vote against their economic self-interest. The usual explanation is that, for these voters, economic issues are trumped by social and cultural issues like guns, abortion, and race.

I’m not so sure. The wages of production workers have been dropping for thirty years, adjusted for inflation, and their economic security has disappeared. Companies can and do shut down, sometimes literally overnight. A smaller share of working-age Americans hold jobs today than at any time in more than three decades.

People are so desperate for jobs they don’t want to rock the boat. They don’t want rules and regulations enforced that might cost them their livelihoods. For them, a job is precious – sometimes even more precious than a safe workplace or safe drinking water.

This is especially true in poorer regions of the country like West Virginia and through much of the South and rural America – so-called “red” states where the old working class has been voting Republican. Guns, abortion, and race are part of the explanation. But don’t overlook economic anxieties that translate into a willingness to vote for whatever it is that industry wants.
