Your point being?

Having the best data in the world isn’t the indictment you think it is.

This is not anything new, Ruth Bader Ginsberg was handsomely provided for her entire career for example. DC is a slimy place!

While not ideal, this is not anything new.

Ah I see, I’m confusing unemployment rate with the jobs top line figure. Thank you.

Pfizer received a good chunk of change from warp speed. Besides that, it’s not like they were the only successful manufacturers. I’m not sure I’d view “vaccine hesitancy” as a gift in any sense…

Who violated the ceasefire on October 7th?

Fuck around and find out.

Ah is that you Michael Moore?!

Fuck Hamas

Weird antisemitic LARP

Seems like far too many.

Im trying to engage in civic discussion, not trolling at all.

Are they corrupt because they disagree with you on legal issues or what?

Just to clarify by downward you mean revised downward in the emotionally negative sense not the actual number shrinking right? If I can recall they have been increasing the numbers largely with each revision.

I think the fed takes this into account for what it’s worth, and have a sense of how much to emphasize the data. I might trust them too much but only time will tell on that!

Politically I’d argue it did get some democrats to wake up to the issue, maybe not to the extent most would like though. This could’ve been “solved” with Senator Lankford’s bill, but Trump had to … Trump I guess. Hopefully this is resolved soon in some way or another after the election.

Haven’t followed this too closely but it feels like a sticky situation doesn’t it. It’s really a question of if a software is responsible for its users or not, unless I’ve missed something.

Not great but not terrible. Will be interesting to see if we get a 0.25 or 0.5 rate cut. I’d argue for a 0.5 to be on the safer side, but the “bureaucratic inertia” is definitely on the 0.25 side.

I don’t think the Supreme Court has a “problem”

The institution is working just as intended, arguably the only of the 3 branches.

It’s the feds!

Just because I dissented doesn’t mean he’s “my boy”

Operation warp speed was incredibly successful. Not sure where this narrative that the whole response was a disaster comes from. Too much MSNBC?
