"If we don't have immigration and population growth, the number of people who can pay off that debt just went down." That's the key mechanism.

Pete Hegseth’s focused on the cost of the bomb. I’m more interested in the size of the economic crater.⁣ ⁣ And that crater may be 10 to 100 times larger.⁣ ⁣ For many families, that translates into thousands — perhaps tens of thousands — of dollars.

"You can't say the cost of a puppy is $200 because that was the adoption fee." The Pentagon's $25B price tag does exactly that — it ignores veterans' care, disability payments, and decades of interest. The true cost of war shows up long after the fighting stops.

Think of an oil shock like a stone tossed in a pond. First splash: gasoline. Then the ripples: airfares, delivery costs, packaging, groceries, construction materials.⁣ ⁣ The ripples are real. Just give them a moment to spread.

"The big story right now is oil. The next story is food." ⁣ ⁣ That's the transmission channel people miss: if fertilizer is "caught on the wrong side of the Strait of Hormuz," food prices can be next.

A 60-year low in sentiment is a big deal because the baseline is already tough: this survey has lived through recessions, inflation, wars, and financial crises. And yet this is worse.⁣ ⁣ Read the full analysis on Substack: https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/consumer-sentiment-hits-a-record

The lesson here isn’t just about phones in schools. It’s about human behavior: Take something away, and people usually replace it with something else.⁣ ⁣ Economists call this substitution.

“He failed to understand the interconnectedness of the world economy.” ⁣ ⁣ That was true in the trade war, and it’s true now.

Even if Middle East tensions ease, futures markets are signaling oil prices will stay elevated for months — maybe years.⁣ ⁣ That's the "Iran tax." And it's not going away anytime soon, regardless of what the White House says about prices coming down.

The key distinction is between nominal wages and real wages. Nominal wages are the dollars on your paycheck. Real wages are what those dollars can actually buy.⁣ ⁣ If prices rise faster than pay, you’re going backwards.

The same in his warped brain. Trump lied his way into a job he knew he couldn’t do because he didn’t respect the people who did it and made it look easier than it actually was. The first time, now, he came into office, he was prepared to ruin the world and steal everything that wasn’t nailed down.

While your own words you put out in the world are a projection of yourself, Ask yourself WHY you believe the words that define you. Evaluate why a slogan means something to you. If words you’ve been holding no longer suit you, you can let them go. #words #selfhelp #learning #growth #grandmaadvice

I'm a mom, a union flight attendant, and a state representative. I still work two jobs to make ends meet. That's why I'm running for Congress. Because Washington has left working people behind - it's time our representatives reflect the communities they serve.

This is I mean by State Police “used horses.” poor babies are just trying to be good boys and girls, but are being used as battering rams for crowd control. NJ Gov. Mikie Sherrill said this State Police abuse was “absolutely necessary to protect public safety.” Resign, @mikiesherrill.bsky.social.

Love Talarico blasting Paxton’s 'vegan' jabs with Texas BBQ: 'I’ve been eating BBQ since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment.' Brilliant. While the GOP is morally bankrupt, Trump is still the only one who survives being an unabashed criminal. Paxton can't be the second. Texans must reject him.🤦🏾‍♂️
