#Economy #Prices

~ "Walmart reported its weakest sales growth in six years, extending a string of data suggesting that #ConsumerSpending —the key engine of #US economic growth—is softening" as people, facing high #prices and economic #uncertainty, spend carefully.

Bessent’s buyback tactic "worked for roughly one day" before #yields went back up 👀

Concerns:

• Record $40 trillion US #debt
• Persistent gov't spending, like w/ #IranWar; budget deficit
• Consistently high #inflation
• Increased #oil #prices
• Americans must spend & borrow more
• AI-related corporate #spending financed via #borrowing (with uncertain returns)

@renardboy Agree BUT the root #truth / #onionskin is:

#Systems today NEED to have shittyness associated with it to keep it going because they were born from that shit (much like having #bank loans 'support' (#extract) from everything and everyone; wanting #infinite #profit).

The #system (=#cheating #people or increasing #prices) knows #shady #shit will have to happen (at some point) when #land & people are infinitely #rented (and taken away from #future #children who don't want / can't #pay).

Turns out there was never a real #egg shortage in the #US during the last egg crisis. Production was substantially unaffected, yet #prices skyrocketed. Calling it theft is an understatement. This is economic treason! #Society was the victim. #Crimes like this one demands the harshest #punishment, as #dissuasion shall be a #priority, in the interests of all vs the dishonest fews.

Australia's #battery bonanza: apparently, subsidizing 500,000 giant Duracells 💡🔋 is the latest genius move to slash #power #prices. Who knew solving #energy woes was as simple as plugging in a few million AAAs? 🤔🎉 Clearly, the real #innovation here is realizing that batteries exist.

Note: Oz commented something to the effect of 'the premium increases won't be that bad'...

Well, they also aren't necessary. The admin doesn't *have* to end the subsidies early. It simply wants to.

#Amazon, #FedEx, #UPS, etm. can wring their hands about it raising #prices as if that weren't happening anyway.

These folks need a #union.

I appreciate that #localGovernment wants to help, but electeds come and go.
