Steelmaker Cleveland Cliffs to idle 3 steel plants in Pennsylvania and Illinois

As we saw, it was deadly to Harris to not cater to populist sentiment. Just a simple plan to fix inflation and wages would have won the election. Instead the corporate dems kowtowed yet again to their corporate masters. I see the modern core Democrat party as Republicans with progressive social values anyway. **** em all, we need a reset.

 

Trump introduced a waitress tips exemption. It's awful in the sense that those same servers will not see as big a Social Security benefit as they're expecting when they retire. Whether SS is still around is moot, but rather how the scheme was delivered.

Kamala then riffed the idea and said she'd do it too. Like wtf is advising her and does she even understand the point behind the scheme, which was to give low effort wins in order to acknowledge the pain of the Working Poor?

All this BS about how the economy was booming undercuts the numbers of people taking on 2 jobs in order to finance their spending habits. Covid created an urgency for some and with the extra unemployment benefits, a lack of urgency for others. The latter might've spoiled young working age males rotten as they robinhooded the checks and listened to trash influencers like that sex trafficker...taint or something.

I vent so much about this issue as I see it upfront in California. It'll be a tough nut to crack to get a good reset.

 

about the Fed wrecking its balance sheet!
