If the fed is cutting that means we're in a recession. If the fed is raising the economy is strong. Only tech bros want deflation
@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
Biden wants deflation - you have completely the wrong feel. Listen to this AEI dude - this is a political battle.

Experts react to December's inflation report
@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach
Conservatives want deflation. Liberals want inflation. Inflation helps the poor and those in debt. Deflation helps the rich and hurts the poor
ForeignSubstance ✅@rubecube12 @plutus @johnserwach Inflation *crushes* the poor. I'm sorry, but this is just ... wrong. Sure, it helps inflate debt away, but this is *more than offset by a lower ability to consume.
John Serwach ✅@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @plutus
It depends. It is hard on the truly poor. But It does tend to benefit the working poor when combined with reasonable wage increases. The working poor (at least in the US) are more apt to own homes in less desirable neighborhoods and or have debt from medical bills, attempts at college, children etc and those debts do tend to inflate away. Obviously it’s beneficial to the so called middle class if they have debt.
@johnserwach @rubecube12 @plutus Key: "when combined with reasonable wage increases"
And conservatives don't want deflation. Nobody wants deflation. It's what the Fed has spent more than a decade trying to prevent.
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus
The wage increases at or near the bottom are the biggest I’ve seen in all my years these last two years. The fight for fifteen is over, labor won.
Will it be a Pyrrhic victory? Jury is still out.
@johnserwach @rubecube12 @plutus Agree, but when you consider the many, many years of stagnation or regression, the victory is more like going to the concussion tent and then being allowed back into the game.
@plutus @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance
Concussion tent ? Error correct has got me on that one. 😂
People need to make a stand here, and demand higher wages. The pendulum needs to tilt back. It’s gone too far to the richest among us.

Mississippi capital facing water crisis once again
Public schools in Jackson, Mississippi, were forced to go virtual after much of the city has been under a boil water notice since Christmas. Some businesses are also closing after months of dealing with the water crisis. Mark Strassmann takes a look.

CBDC coin unauthorized by Congress is unconstitutional. No deal on debt limit. Either a clean bill, platinum coin or Argentina. Clean bill or nothing. If republicans want to screw over there constituents who own govt boobs fine. Dems will pay for Medicare like Kitchner. Fuck the bond holders
@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
80% of republicans own assets including bonds. Only 30% of democrats do. If republicans don't want to pay the bond holders. Fine. We don't have to pay the bond holders. They can get nothing

So what do you guys think, buy more iBonds, just go high yield checking or something like VGLT ??
@protecttruth @plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
Ibonds are good. Swvxx is better
@protecttruth @rubecube12 @plutus @ForeignSubstance how do you figure better? Other than more liquid ?
@protecttruth @ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach
More liquid is better. Also fed aint stopping raising. So yield will go up. While ibonds yield will go down until fed stops raising
@rubecube12 @protecttruth @ForeignSubstance @plutus
feds about done raising, of course inflation is about over as well so I bond will go back down.
@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance @protecttruth
When fed quits raising. Inflation will bounce back
@rubecube12 @protecttruth @plutus @ForeignSubstance
I doubt it, but we will see.
@johnserwach @protecttruth @ForeignSubstance @plutus
Rates still way below inflation. Thats not restrictive

Its 7% YOY. Seasonality should make inflation negative at this time of year
@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @protecttruth @plutus 7% year over year, 0% since June (negative in fact)
@protecttruth @ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach
Just healthy consolidation
@protecttruth @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @plutus
For reference here is the 2008-2011 data, note inflation peaked in July of 2008 and did not go positive until January of 2011. Pretty standard 15 year cycle. (One weird trick THEY don’t want you to know about)
@rubecube12 @johnserwach @protecttruth @ForeignSubstance Wong- y/y cpi is useless m/m Is the measure that should impact society and policy.
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @protecttruth
Wages are changed on an annual basis. Prices are sticky
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @protecttruth regardless of whether your point has any bearing in reality, the fact of the matter is, as I’ve pointed out for over a year, Fed’s massive hikes does nothing to solve supply chain driven price spikes and creates many more side effects than benefits on things it purportedly helps
@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance @protecttruth
Fed has just normalized rates. Inflation is not going down. The population growth rate is about to explode as soon as the fed lets of the breaks

No oil changes, no brakes etc. so that’s a plus. Can u charge at your condo ??
@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
I can charge at my condo. No oil changes. I'll paying myself equity and tax deductible interest instead of gas. I will be paying 50 dollars to rotate my tires instead of 100 dollars in oil changes and tire rotation every 6 weeks. I wont have a 700 dollar 30k big service every 30 weeks. Just need to change tires. So cuts service cost half
