Perhaps you can point to anyone...anywhere...who said this was "good."

They're just numbers...and they were slightly less than expected. So the market reacted with an increase with record highs on the tech side while the Dow jumped close to a record high too.

Inflation alone is not the economy, as I've continually said. And I completely agree, the vast majority of the electorate does not understand, nor pay attention, to this. And of course they will vote based on their individual circumstances and what they perceive.

Tom says (above):

- They're just numbers
- Who said this was "good"

Ok Tom, If they are "just numbers", and "nobody said they were good"; Why did you go out of your way in the OP to highlight and underline all the positives rather than just put the quote in there as it was taken from the article? We all can read for ourselves, we don't need to be subliminally drawn to the bold and underlined.

You cannot post things, bring attention to highlight specifics that direct opinion, and then also say "it is meaningless", or feign some kind of neutrality. It is hypocritical at best.

Sure Green posts the negatives, I am not sure I have seen him deny that anywhere; unlike you, who is "independent" and "just sharing data points" while also going out of your way to push the narrative like you did in the OP. You can deny all you want, but it is clear to all.

How about stop denying and just own your bias. Nobody actually cares that you support Biden, it is the completely hypocritical way you go about doing it that pizzes everyone off. Go in your closet, find your blue "Joe Biden Felt me up, and I liked it" Tee-shirt and stop pretending to be independent.

A G A I N, I'm not a ******* Independent, you damned clown!

And I highlighted and underlined the stuff to make my point...that it appears positive to Biden, hence why Green didn't post it.

Geez, you're slow.

I know, we all know..... That's why I put "independent" in quotes..... Geez you're slow.

You're the one on the losing end of a crusade.

Tom calling someone else foolish is rich.

Yeah, everyone knows that. Your point?

You brought up stock market highs for some reason. Maybe you can explain it.

I just posted the damned article, with the FACT that the markets hit record highs. Stop reading something into everything.

I've said the same thing countless times here.

The question being asked of you is why did you post it in a topic about high inflation if it has no meaning to the topic.?

That's the damn question.

I'd give you more but making tommie look like the idiot he is doesn't really take much effort so it's just +3.

Geez, you're slow.

Geez you're such a liar.

That idiot is on record, for years, stating that he is not a democrat. Well, if he's not a democrat and he's not a republican - not that any sane republican would welcome him into the tent - then he has one choice left unless he's a member of the Green party or the Libertarian party, which would actually explain a lot. So yeah, he has claimed to be an independent for years.

And how many times has he voted for anyone but the democrat?
