Are people so ingrained in a cult that they cannot look critically at information to understand the actual state of our economy?


If sales are up 9.1% and inflation is at 3% what critical thinking am I missing?

Are Black Friday sals up because economy is good or because people were more eager for sales? With my spouse laid off, we sought out bigger price cuts for things we would normally wait on, like the next size up on sneakers for both my kids

Since President Trump's April tariff announcement, overall manufacturing employment has declined by 42,000, while job openings and hires have fallen by 76,000 and 18,000, respectively according to the Center for American Progress (2). Manufacturing hiring plunged in May to the weakest rate since 2016 under President Barack Obama (3).

On "Liberation Day," President Trump said: "Jobs and factories will come roaring back into our country, and you see it happening already. We will supercharge our domestic industrial base." (6) But the numbers tell a different story.

According to the American Enterprise Institute, the cost to American purchasers per manufacturing job created by tariff protection will be at least $225,000 annually per job-year for an indefinite period, with more realistic calculations indicating a cost of $550,000 annually per job-year (7).

American shoppers spent a RECORD $11.8 billion online on Black Friday, up +9.1% from last year.

Adobe Analytics, which tracks over 1 trillion US retail site visits, expects shoppers to spend $5.5 billion on Saturday and $5.9 billion on Sunday, up 3.8% and 5.4%.

I must admit, I am surprised by those numbers. That’s a lot of spending going on.


It takes more to get less these days.

+1 people are paying more today for goods and services. We've now become accustomed to it during covid, and those high prices have stayed, including due to Trump's tariffs.

Estimated FY2026 tariff revenue: $207 billion.
Estimated FY2026 individual income tax revenue: $2.6 trillion

All the tariffs are are a regressive tax on working class Americans. so, yay for the $33 billion in revenue. what you are saying is almost 2 months of tariff revenue is going to Argentina without an gap filling on our national debt. How is that a win?

Yes. Trump’s tariff tax on Americans has raised revenue for the Treasury. It’s working out well for Trump and his cronies who are stealing it all. It’s expensive for the rest of us though.
