Why should we encourage community #gardens? There’s the food, which helps with #affordability. There are the mental health benefits of #gardening and the community connections. But greenery also helps by cooling cities and managing stormwater runoff. Oh, and did we mention that gardens are pretty? https://www.publicsource.org/how-to-start-gardening-in-pittsburgh/

Core inflation (removing food and energy) up at a 4.8% per year rate April/March. Total Consumer Price Inflation up at a 7.2% per year rate. And housing up at at a 7.2% per year rate as well! - Any chance of any even semi-benign glidepath back to 2.5% CPI-basis per year has been rudely interrupted by the rake-stepping of Donald Trump and his corrupt, cowardly minions. Start with the mechanics. We see a headline reading that is being yanked up by energy: energy prices rose 3.8% month‑over‑month and 17.9% year‑over‑year, with gasoline up a truly eye‑catching 28.4% over the past twelve months. —Professor Brad DeLong, Economics - UC Berkeley #Inflation #economy #CostOfLiving #Affordability #prices #CPI #RepublicansDidThis #RepublicansOwnThis

I’m old enough to remember when US Presidents actually cared about an economy that worked for all Americans, not just #Billionaires and the one percent. Obama felt our pain, and got the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) passed to reduce our health insurance payments. #Republicans got back into power and immediately cut taxes for the rich and launched a multi-billion dollar war. #Trump #Affordability #CostOfLiving #economy #RepublicansDidthis

Trump’s approval on economy hits new low; 7 in 10 Americans expect #recession next year.
Three-quarters (75%) of Americans say the #economy unfairly favors powerful interests, with about the same amount saying it is harder to get ahead now than a generation ago. A similar share says it will be even harder for the next generation.

Inflation up AGAIN - now over 3.8% since this time last year. Expected to go higher as food and fuel prices continue to rise.

The #Consumer Price Index rose 3.8% in April from a year earlier, the Labor Dept reported Tuesday, up from a 2.4% annual increase before the conflict started in February & a 3.3% increase in March.
The increase was driven largely by #energy prices, up 3.8% since the previous month. Stripping out volatile food & energy prices, the index rose 2.8% in April.

#Inflation shot up 3.8% in April as #TrumpsWar greatly increased #energy costs
#Consumer #prices in the #UnitedStates rose at the fastest rate since May 2023 last month, as sharp increases in energy costs caused by #war in the #MiddleEast made #life more expensive for #US consumers.

The best decision would be to stop attacking Iran and withdraw the military.
President Trump says he wants the gas tax to be temporarily suspended as the war in Iran extends into its 11th week and keeps oil prices elevated.
The U.S. federal gas tax is primarily used to fund transportation infrastructure through the Highway Trust Fund.

Según Apple Insider, el sitio web indica que reservar el teléfono de Trump "no garantiza que se produzca ni se ponga a la venta".
"600.000 personas consiguieron el teléfono de Trump. Mejor dicho, 600.000 personas lo reservaron, pagaron un depósito de 100 dólares y nunca lo recibieron", escribió un usuario de X que se identifica como MAGA Cult Slayer.

MAGA is making living more expensive. They ignore the climate crisis and promote fossil fuels.
“The basic reason is straightforward enough. The US cattle herd is the smallest it’s been in decades, squeezed by drought and high feed costs. Demand for beef, meanwhile, has held up.”

Congressional Progressive Caucus - New #AffordabilityAgenda last week.
The “agenda focuses on affordability in many forms, proposing bills that would lower the cost of housing, electricity, gasoline, child care, prescription drugs, groceries, and consumer goods and services where the price is set through the extraction of personal information.” Polls show the agenda has broad support, 65% or more — including 59-78% Republican support. 1/2

If a store knows, for example, that one of those customers lives in a wealthier neighborhood, it can charge that person a higher price.
The bill enforcing the ban, the Protection From #PredatoryPricing Act, goes into effect on Oct 1. Merchants face fines of $10k for running afoul of the #law, & penalties of $25k for repeat offenses.

#Trump says he'll place 25% #tariff on #autos from #EU, accusing bloc of not complying with #trade deal
Trump said Friday that he will increase #tariffs charged on #cars & #trucks from the EU next week to 25%, a move that could jolt the world #economy at a fragile moment.
Trump said in a social media post that the EU “is not complying with our fully agreed to Trade Deal,” though he did not flesh out his objections in the post.
