To the government. Work harder to take better care of our money. They are one of the biggest reasons for our inflation today. They have flooded the economy with money (they don't have) and are surprised when we have massive inflation. I'm just extremely surprised it took this long. And FYI I'm pointing my finger at both sides of the aisle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piggy backing on your point, best thing for market is less government interference, which is cause by a split in the chambers. Truly best is generally when the house and senate are united against the president since everything that passes must be moderate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuesday had little to do with anything, it was all about inflation data. Look at what happened w/10 year bond yields and mortgage rates. There is still a remote probability dems keep both houses which could hurt the market since hope for gridlock is already priced in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booooo to you turn signal missing, stop sign running BMW snobs! 😀 We're an Audi family (wife and I), kids drive VW's. Like my gasser A6, test drove an AMG E53, should have purchased that but was concerned about the smaller inside/trunk. We frequently take long drives and I'm very concerned by the charging stops. Not sure what vehicle/brand we will be driving in the next few years. Please post updates on your experiences with the ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 Aaaaand car insurance just went up FORTY dollars a month. Reason given - costs. I told the prick on the phone it’s time to lay people off there. Don’t worry corporate will start the layoffs once DeSantis takes office. They’re holding out as long as they can rn until the 2024 election. Many won’t be able to but a lot will hold out. It’s coming folks. It’s all unsustainable unless you have no kids. Oh wait, maybe that’s the goal…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
