Re: Does anyone care about the economy?
I get to watch the tariffs take affect as Amazon keeps sending me notifications that the things in my cart have increased in cost.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

yeah pretty fucked. the Fed is gonna need to find a new metric to measure the labor market because a metric that has a +/- 50% error rate is totally uselessBurtReynolds wrote:

Probably not a good thing that the entire world economy is dependent on one company (Nvidia), right?

Re: Does anyone care about the economy?
the effective tariff rate when all said and done came to about 12%
way less impactful than initially thought
and even if canada's CEOs wanted to de-link from the US, it would take years of intense effort, and would only reduce dependency by 10%
USA and everyone else gonna be just fine fortunately
just gotta try to tune out the orange man's messaging
