this economy is kind of a gut check to those that lived extended to the limit and check to check No matter how you live, why would anyone want to pay more for everything? When you buy a used boat from an individual and he tells you he wants $25,000 do you say, "Make it $30,000. I like paying more"?

When you buy a used boat from an individual and he tells you he wants $25,000 do you say, "Make it $30,000. I like paying more"? Few rational people would want to pay more for everything. But the person who has a budget and lives within his means is able to tighten the belt a couple notches and get by with higher prices much easier than the paycheck-to-paycheck person.

Where did you get that from? I stated my opinion from people I know who live a little tight to the upper end if their limits and how the clown in the WH and his peeps economy has made people's lives tough.

Think I read one time that 90 percent of Americans are two paychecks away from being in the Red. I feel bad for those folks but I also find it funny for those that voted for this clown.

Donothin and his ilk are giddy! Nope, the Trump driven inflation is not something that I like. Low interest rates cause inflation. I am glad to see that being addressed as it should be. Those with cash are subsidizing the almost zero interest rates we have had. Needs to be 8-6 percent.

If they raise interest rates to 20%+, it will make it easier on people who do not need to borrow to purchase to get better deals.

They fact that I will be looking for a house at the turn of the year is a little frustrating. I can in no way afford to buy anything desirable before then. All I can do is watch my interest rate go up before I even get the chance to sign on the dotted line. With that being said, anyone putting something on the market between Tomball and Huntsville in the next 3-5 months?
If you think you're the smartest man in the room, you're not. If you know you're the smartest man in the room, find a different room.

Not all poor people voted for the clown Most did, it’s just a cycle they can’t get out of. It’s no different than the women that keeps returning to the abuser, or the thug that riots in his own community.

The three things that are or will crush companies are inflation, interest rates and the cost of power.
