Post #45552 by alan81 on the US Policy board

When visiting Shrewd'm with a laptop, it can be pleasant to hold Command (or Ctrl with Windows) and '+' a few times. The site scales to allow any font size, and the larger font can be pleasant to read even for Shrewds with perfect sight! For luxury Shrewdness, you can combine that with setting the browser to full screen. You'll then find yourself Shrewding a lot.

“the US economy is on the brink of collapse and everyone knows it”

Lets revisit what I said:
Inflation in Trumps first three months was higher than in the last three of Bidens.
Q1 also saw a drop in GDP (usually takes two quarters of this before a recession call though).
-> The US economy is teetering on the edge right now, and other countries know it.

Implied but not stated is "recession". I have no idea where the "everybody knows it" came from. I am not sure how technically a "collapse" differs from a recession, but it sure sounds worse.

You believed the lack of an interest rate change by the fed implied they were not worried about recession, but OTOH, the fed specifically stated they remained unchanged due to the concern over inflation.
