    Default See? This is what growth looks like, Republicans...



    Not the shitty 2.8% growth, which was the best Trump could do...he never hit 3% and didn't even beat Obama's 2.89%.

    The fantastic recovery/expansion of the economy in such a short period has a lot to do with the rise in inflation. Barring any more new and terrible variants of the virus showing up, that, too, should even out soon.

    The problem is it is outpaced by inflation causing real wage loss. I wish just growth was enough, but when all gains are negated by the inflation rate change needs to happen.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    Honest numbers would be inflation adjusted, and our inflation numbers would be honest....currently the numbers we are being fed are arguably outright fraud.

    "Source: Authors Calculations" is not reassuring.

    Posted on another thread, but history is pretty conclusive: the economy always does better under Democrats.
