    Also, I heard that people are coming out of retirement to work because they don't have enough money.

    And just for the sake of it, I heard that a company, I forgot which, was pushing for productivity gains while keeping the same wage. They're doing it again, burning out workers, despite the great resignation. It's an employer's market right now.

    I heard the term " zero inflation last month" several times from his mouth

    Sadly, the media will run with that and Democrat voters, as we see on this forum, parrot it

    LoL.

    There are 11 million job offers.

    More than double the number of people without jobs.

    The unemployment rate is 3.6%, which means that people on unemployment don't want to work.

    Most of them are probably MAGA.

    That isn’t the monthly inflation rate.

    It really kills you guys not to be able to be glad inflation is falling doesn’t it?

    President Biden has actually had many successes since taking office.
    President Biden has many accomplishments in office
    https://centraljersey.com/2022/03/17/president-biden-has-many-accomplishments-in-office/

    President Biden's latest numbers are actually improving.
    Joe Biden’s approval rating ticks up to its highest level since June in new poll

    As of now President Biden is not a Lame Duck

    You,apparently don't understand economics. There is no way that the "6 million" people out of work now are the same 6 million that were out of work in 2019. And 6 million people out of work in a 340 million people economy IS BETTER than full employment. Changing jobs doesn't change the number but 3.5% unemployment IS BETTER than what econ 101 teaches IS FULL EMPLOYMENT; when and economy is at 4% unemployment that IS FULL employment.

    You are correct, year over year we are 8.5% inflation, but 8.5% month over month is zero % inflation, which is what President Biden was claiming, in other words the inflation "spiral we were in, is getting under control.

    I don't see how you get 13.6% when the data shows 8.5%.

    Typical right, you're twisting or not reading what I said.

    Yeah, some people realized they don't really have to work. They learned to live with less and realized they would rather spend more time with their kids or whatever, than living to work.

    $3.99

    The national average cost of a gallon of regular gasoline now stands at $3.99, according to AAA.4 hours ago

    Today we were notified of significant improvements in the supply chain for high-tech hardware.

    yup

    and price per gallon October 2020?
    hey, let's enact EO's targeting energy, the cost of goods for all rises, demand will drop, then when the per-gallon is ONLY $1.50 higher than when we took office, we'll get Democrat voters to celebrate that


    Hey wait, that's what you are doing..................
