You can't make this stuff up. What happens when minimum wage is $25 an hour? Then your $1 donut becomes $3. And it just gets worse from there. Listen up LaDasha, if you don't like the pay, then go find a new job. Or maybe go to college or a trade school. Going on strike for $25 an hour at Dunkn lmao. What a joke this society has become.

Whoever runs this company should run the country. Clearly they're doing a great job.

U.S. consumer prices unexpectedly dropped by 0.1%, the first decline since May 2020, driven by lower gasoline and used car prices, despite a forecasted 0.1% rise. The Labor Department reported this amid a 6.3% fall in gasoline prices, overshadowing rises in food (up 0.4%), electricity, and natural gas costs. Over the past year, the CPI rose 2.4%, down from February's 2.8%. However, this dip may not persist as President Trump intensified tariffs on Chinese imports, raising duties to 125% from 104% after China retaliated with an 84% tariff on U.S. goods. This escalation, including a 20% tariff on Chinese products and levies on steel and aluminum, follows Trump's brief 90-day pause on tariffs against other trade partners, which had initially disrupted markets. Economists, like Christopher Rupkey of FWDBONDS, caution that this inflation relief might be temporary due to the intensified trade war with China, a key source of U.S. consumer goods. The price drop could signal weakening demand amid recession fears linked to these tariffs, prompting speculation that the Federal Reserve might cut interest rates by 100 basis points in 2025. Meanwhile, the EU paused its initial counteractions to U.S. tariffs, though it wasn't addressed in Trump’s recent statement

Do you want to see how to destroy a small state? Just have a bad attitude like this and you will see businesses leaving by the dozens at some point.

Uh OH! Migrants have declared a 'Latino Freeze' after places like Walmart, Target, and McDonald's ditched or scaled back on the ridiculous DEI practices that hire people based on how they look instead of their skills and talents. It's basically a way to discriminate against white people. DEI is one of the most pointless things to ever exist. Every job should hire people based on their skills and value they bring to the company, not to fill any sort of diversity quota or other nonsense. That just eliminates potentially higher qualified people for no reason other than being a white person. DEI deserves to be banished.

Walgreens is closing 12 more stores. Is this because of the economy, or because people keep robbing them? Or both?

These linemen were striking because they weren't paid. Some of them worked the hurricane recovery efforts, and it's bad when someone who's helping out for a good cause isn't paid like they should be. The good news is that they came to an agreement and will get paid. Issue is resolved for now, but it could've been really bad. <a href="https://wlos.com/news/local/work-stoppage-resolved-after-linemen-demand-full-compensation-for-recovery-efforts-helene-next-era-communications-mastec-spectrum" target="_blank">WLOS reported</a> on it:<br /><br /> <blockquote> <div>News 13 took several calls on Wednesday, Oct. 30 from linemen who said they were not being compensated, despite having worked long hours over several weeks.</div> <div> </div> <div>They gathered in the old Sears parking lot off South Tunnel Road after the work stoppage began at 7:00 a.m. on Wednesday.</div> <div> </div> <div>The company, Next Era Communications, contracted crews and bucket trucks from across the country beginning in early October to help Western North Carolina rebuild after Helene.</div> </blockquote> <br /><br />

The co-owner of a beloved market in San Francisco talks about how and why they are dealing with a looming business closure thanks to crime and inflation.

A new inflation report was released and discussed in the news. It seems like the American economy needs some help and consumers need a LOT of help. Prices are out of control for a lot of consumer goods, homes, rent, gas, food, and all sorts of things. Will the prices ever go back to normal, or is this the new normal? Will wages ever increase the same as the prices to adjust for the insanity? Or will America suffer a big problem with the struggling economy in the coming years?

Harry's Banana Farm had a sign up that wished Donald Trump was shot and killed. They then got shamed on social media for saying such a terrible thing and eventually changed their sign.
