Exactly. They aren’t “defending” anything. This will not end well for Putin.

Re: The Ukraine Crisis
Are they calling up reserves or are they conscripting/shanghaiing people? I've read that they are "reservists"...but I think there's a mandatory military service requirement in Russia so technically anyone is a "reservist". I equate this Russian mobilization similar to US activa...

Re: Bidenflation and Shortage thread
well they were advertising "only" 7.5-8.5% all year when according to your chart it was over 14%, so what's good for the goose is good for the gander. i don't know if they advertised any "only" stuff. But I am fine with being honest about what rates are doing at any given time. ...

Re: Bidenflation and Shortage thread
Huh? It's always reported both ways. But why would you not want to know the year on year difference? What I paid for something last year versus what I pay for it now is a pretty good metric. Especially since most people tend to get annual raises in their salary - it's good to know if your buying po...

Well, you may be correct there. There is an amazingly insufficient amount of simple economic understanding out there, and if JSO is any example of this from Dems on the left then it's certainly true.

Well the Fed may be trying to tame inflation, but the administration is doing everything in its power to pour gasoline on the fire. It’s no wonder 225 basis points of increase in six months has barely put a dent in it. Well, there is the chance that the feeling with Dems is that we're in a massive ...
