USMC Boot Camp was a real test of the mind more than testing my physical ability. I was lean (or skinny according to some). Run distances and carry my load plus some of the load for others was not a problem either. I could learn quickly and avoid the thumping dished out by DI’s. And […]
Seventy-eight percent (78%) of the public say Congress should extend the enhanced tax credits. The credits available to people with low and moderate income. These ensure health coverage purchased through the Affordable Care Act’s Marketplace affordable. But it is just not the ACA insured who are in trouble due to Tr_mps BBB. So are those […]
The campaign to sow doubt and confusion around vaccines uses several different lies. One is the facially absurd notion that combination vaccines can overwhelm the immune system. A healthy infant’s immune system responds to thousands of antigens from their environment daily, far exceeding the number found in modern vaccines. Moreover, decades of experience the world […]
– by New Deal democrat My “Weekly Indicators” post is up at Seeking Alpha. All of the high frequency data that I gather in those posts comes from the Fed or its regional banks, the States, or private firms.

My comment: “Do you see such an awaking amongst the citizens who are Republicans? Are they besieging their representatives or senators yet? It appears many voters disapprove of Tr_mp.

Both high and low income earners […]
– by New Deal democrat As we all know by now, there is no US jobs report today due to the government shutdown. But there are a number of alternative measures which can give us a good estimate of what the jobs situation is. Let me start first with the unemployment rate. Here is an […]
Not sure if you noticed last evening(?), the President was commenting about acetaminophen (known by various brand names) and autism. Thereby his warning to pregnant women not to take this pain reliever. Both he and Robert Kennedy are advocating such. As soon as the claim was made, the news channels cut away from the announcement […]
“ADP also revised the August jobs number down, saying that the private sector lost 3,000 jobs that month. Ultimately, that means the private sector has lost jobs in three out of the last four months, per ADP estimates. “What’s more, since the start of April, when Trump first announced his moronic “Liberation Day” tariffs, the […]
It has been a while since Angry Bear has posted one of Sandwichman’s piece. I have a similar ideology as Sandwichman has when it comes to manufacturing, etc. My approach is in the plants or in the actual supply chain. This is an interesting piece about academic issues. “Artificial intelligence creates more academic dishonesty than […]
