Inflation is not really down, go to the grocery store, shop for shoes, or anything made with petroleum and its secondary products. Diesel fuel is still high and in limited supply adding to transport costs, heating oil and propane up by 45%, electricity up. Inflation down is BS, another government...

(more) Just when you think things are turning around, wham, we all get hit with inflation the likes of which haven't been seen since the peanut years. We are indeed at the beginning of a recession. Those falling gas prices, wait till after the Mid-Terms. For the past three years we have been subjected to "crisis" one after another, all manufactured to suite political agendas for the benefit of the anointed. In closing this rant I suggest you all read Vision of the Anointed by Thomas Sowell, Phd.   https://sowell.org/about

(more) While I am holding my own new business is proving to be elusive. The reasons are many and compounded at all levels of the business food chain. Those having to shell out higher than normal wages must pull funds from other areas, same for higher prices for product if they can get product) and supplies. It all ripples through the the business community. Inflation is the other killer. May's 8.6% rate is not the true number for it does not include the costs of fuel and food. So we have a further compounding of costs and no relief in sight. Some states such as Florida are doing well but again there are labor short falls particularly in the skilled construction trades. That is a geographic problem labor far removed from the jobs. Higher interest rates are cooling the housing market in some locations, could this end up with the mess Jimmy Carter made or worse. The ship of fools in D.C. cow-towing to the "progressives" are driving the US economy to the status of a third world banana republic. Inm less than two years we have gone from a thriving business economy to a dead slow growth economy where SMBs are hanging on by their teeth. Personally I am tired of the circus D.C. presents to us nightly on the MSM while manically wreaking havoc on the economy and those of us who make it all work.

Many have already have shuttered their doors as a result of lock downs and supply chain issues not to mention that Maryland is not a business friendly state to begin with. Looks as if we are heading for another round of stagflation. The difference between this round and Jimmy Carter's is this round is very deliberately planned.

But 59% Also Worry About BA.2 Variant, this stat only proves the Fear Mongers are all in on spread FUD. Come on people stop buying in on the fear the very thing crippling the recovery and leading to recession or worse. It's your choice lead yourself or be led by the control freaks.
