    You live in Ireland? I’ve always wanted to go there and Scotland. I’ve been to England a few times.

    I’d also go to Whales toooo

    Dollar General isn't the only factor, but it's a significant one. They are designed to serve low-income and working-class families. If these stores are seeing a decline in business, it's a red flag something deeper is going on, especially because we know these groups aren't suddenly making more money.

    when the most cost-conscious consumers are forced to cut back, it suggests that the economic 'boom' isn't reaching everyone equally. This is why focusing solely on broad economic indicators can sometimes miss the struggles faced by those who are most vulnerable.

    trying to say "look at the S&P though" is severely discounted reality on the ground for people who don't have much disposable income.

    I want to go to a football match in Wrexham, Wales.

    No, We live in Albany NY.
    There is a family house in Tralee, County Kerry used by all the cousins, my wife's side. She is a dual citizen.
    No one had stayed there for about 4 months. That place was nasty, hence the cleaning supplies.

    An Englishman notices two women have been talking at the bar for an hour, so he goes to chat them up.

    "Excuse me, are you two lovely ladies from England?"

    One of them scoffs, "Wales."

    "I'm sorry, are you two whales from England?"

    As it should be. Trump’s economic proposals are terrible. I'm going to start a new thread on it.

    https://www.reuters.com/world/us/tr...ime-slips-reutersipsos-poll-finds-2024-08-27/

    WASHINGTON, Aug 27 (Reuters) - Donald Trump's advantage over Kamala Harris on the economy and crime is eroding among U.S. voters, a sign the Democratic vice president's campaign is gathering momentum ahead of the Nov. 5 presidential election, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll.
    The three-day poll, conducted Aug. 23-25, showed Republican former President Trump's approach to the economy and employment was preferred by 43% of registered voters compared to 40% who preferred Harris's approach. The 3 percentage point difference was too small to be significant given the poll's 4 percentage point margin of error. A prior Reuters/Ipsos poll in late July showed Trump with an 11-point advantage on the economy.

    this video makes a good point. because Harris-Walz tried to say Trump agreeing to debate Biden is the same as agreeing to debate Harris, those initial debate terms also should stay. if her team wanted these modifications (cheat sheets, mics unmuted, etc.), then they probably should have negotiated new terms. that backfired.

    One of the biggest threats that trump has said he would do is getting rid of the independence of the Fed, he would simply go in and slash interest rates while simultaneously increase and add tariffs which would be look good in the short term but would have serious consequences to the USA , these are never "quick" fixes, I know its hard to hear eggs are high right now but give the system a chance to do its job, Powell has done a good job getting us to a soft landing, even though I have hated these high interest rates, its what's needed to ensure we dont crash and burn......IMO trump would do a knee jerk reaction and it will take years to recover from that BS
