Here is the unemployment data for the last 10 years, how did the rate of change differ from the years prior to Trump to after?
I'd be careful about being brave in the market, it isn't real money till you sell it and turn it into cash.
Your $200 a month might cover the increase in fuel and food costs due to current policies.
Who do you know that makes steel or aluminum?

We stand to lose many more jobs than we could gain.
We are not selling the right to put our name on hotels and resorts and who cares if the place in East BF fails, the whole country depends on what happens.
"how did the rate of change differ from the years prior to Trump to after?"

Oh. So it's not the unemployment itself that matters, all that matters is the "rate of change". Never heard that before. It's harder to decrease unemployment when it's already low, than when it's high, like talking shots off your golf score.

"I'd be careful about being brave in the market, it isn't real money till you sell it and turn it into cash."

Which is why all the best financial advisors tell their clients to put everything in a savings account, right?

We bought a camper. Funny, when Obama was POTUS, I kept hearing that the president wasn't responsible for gas prices.

I get it Pete, liberal=good, conservative=bad., no exceptions. Right?
