I am surprised that the majority of the uptick is from one state, New York. Interesting. I expected Virginia and Maryland would have seen an increase, but NY?

Freakin idiots. Rand Paul doesn’t know that the Soviet Union didn’t have a czar. That’s what we’re dealing with here.

This is what a command economy is all about. The government dictates what the economy produces. It is socialism but republicans are 100% for it.

Could you imagine if any democrat did this? This is truly radical leftist craziness.

The faltering economy is starting to become a drag on the housing market.
Real estate agents, developers, home buyers and economists are all trying to make sense of which way trends are heading. Slower growth — the economy shrank at the beginning of 2025 — means interest and mortgage rates will probably stay high for the foreseeable future. Stock market swings and flagging consumer confidence are pushing buyers out of the market. President Donald Trump’s trade war is adding thousands to construction costs for new homes and remodels.
