    Economic Slowdown?

    The broader problem is labor share of income has been falling for decades now. Asset owners are keeping an ever larger share of national income given asset prices have far outpaced wage growth. And don?t anyone give me the b/s about average American ?owning? equity assets through 401ks ...

    The 2020 Presidential Election

    On all this Biden stuff and other hit pieces ... I mean the media stopped caring about Trump's grab-her-by-the-pussy remarks after a couple weeks in 2016.  There's an occasional one-off comment here and there, but that's it. Stories have press cycles.  That's reality, not any bias.  But ...

    Presidential Elections

    I can?t believe trump is back at it with healthcare repeal again. This is gross political malpractice. He had a good news cycle going for him , rather than milk it for what it?s worth and then adopt a reconciliatory tone that could go a long way towards increasing his re election chances ...

    Government Shutdown

    And the ?growth story? played out exactly like I predicted - notwithstanding wall to wall MAGA posts last year on this forum If you dump a massive deficit spending package AND a Yuge corporate tax cut on Obama's 2% economy and only get a one year bump to 3%, you can blame whomever you want...
