Title: AP News Admits The Economy Is Strong, But
Post by: Solar on August 01, 2018, 08:29:54 AM
 :lol:
I swear, if Jesus came back and walked across the ocean, the left would do a story about a 2000 year old hippy rejected by the ocean.

The article sites zero facts yet claim anecdotal evidence while ignoring external influences beyond Trump's control. Yeah, they're blaming tariffs. :rolleyes:


The price of a can of Coca-Cola? Likely going up. A package of Pampers? That too. Plane tickets? They also may be more expensive. These items and more may cost more in the coming months as people start feeling the effects of higher fuel prices and raw-material costs as well as a range of tariffs.

Janette Hendricks said she has noticed higher prices on "just about everything" in the past three months or so. That's put a little pressure on the recently retired nurse in Washington. So she goes shopping less often, "makes things stretch," and she always shops for things on sale. She said she has also considered going back to work to have more cushion in the budget.

"The economy is doing great, so why is everyone doing so poorly?" she asked.

She should be asking about all that money being wasted on G/W and it driving up higher prices on everything.  I see she did not say one thing about the higher prices of H/Care.

What I find so entertaining, is the left thinks everyone is as stupid as they are, so much so, they believe the shit they write.
This is a perfect example of leftist and capitalism, they haven't a clue how a real economy works which s why they want socialsm, they can understand when govt controls everything, they can wrap their tiny minds around its simplicity, as to where free mkt is sooo complex, it gives them headaches.

"Math is soooo hard".

The good news is that more and more folks are seeing through the MSM. Their propaganda is not working like it used to be.

The net is a good teaching tool, the MSM or Dem's can not control.

That's why I love exposing these stories. Most just skim these and assume the author diid their homework, never once considering they are literally being lied to.
After all, it's the Associated Press National news service, most people assume the Networks do the spin, but the same people that own the Networks, also own AP, UPI etc.

I'd love to see more members dig up these lies, disguised as news and parse the shit out of them.
