That 70s Joe: Biden Misses Big on 2nd Quarter Growth as Inflation Continues Rising;
Real Wages Buying Power Falls 1.7%

The economy grew at an annualized rate of 6.5% in the second quarter, which may sound like a big number, but it's not. Remember, the economy is springing back from a period of government-and-covid forced artificial suppression.

Also remember that Biden has been pouring tomorrow's dollars into today's economy to get "Green Shoots" going for "Recovery Summer IX."

Given these facts, economists expected 8.4% growth.

Unexpectedly -- it's always unexpected when it's a leftwing Democrat in office -- Biden missed that mark by nearly 2 full points.

The second-quarter growth was just slightly better than the previous quarter's 6.3 percent rise, which was revised downward.

Unexpectedly, I'm sure.


The slower-than-expected growth was still enough to push the GDP above pre-pandemic levels, underscoring how far the economy has come in little more than a year.

At the worst of the pandemic, the economy collapsed at a striking rate of 31.4% in the second quarter of 2020, before bouncing back strongly in the next quarter.

And Biden's setting the table to put the economy on lockdown again.

Won't that be grand.

How many times can you put the shock paddles on a dead patient's chest before they stop sparking the heart to pump again?

Unexpectedly, the fed announced that the high inflation we are currently enjoying, and not enjoying very much, will be higher and more persistent than previously estimated.

The Federal Reserve admitted Wednesday that inflation could increase quicker and for longer than the central bank has projected in recent months.

Inflation could turn out to be "higher and more persistent" than previously expected if supply constraints continue to plague many economic sectors as they are now, Federal Reserve Board Chairman Jerome Powell said during a press conference Wednesday. Fed officials including Powell have repeatedly stated that consumer price increases would be "transitory," lasting 6-9 months, according to Forbes.

Weird flashback: Didn't Obama keep promising us that economic growth was just around the corner, and that our long-term malaise was therefore "transitory"?


"Inflation has increased notably and will likely remain elevated in coming months before moderating," Powell said during the press conference.

"As the economy continues to reopen and spending rebounds, we are seeing upward pressure on prices, particularly because supply bottlenecks in some sectors have limited how quickly production can respond in the near term," he continued.


The public's inflation fears are, quite rightly, rising as quickly as the price of gas:

Concerns about rising inflation, especially in housing and food costs, have jumped, doubling the fears of just three years ago, according to a groundbreaking "Inflation Index" survey provided to Secrets.

In the new Zogby Poll, the inflation that the public perceives has increased 10%. That is double what was felt in 2018.

Zogby Analytics pollster Jonathan Zogby told us, 'Americans' fear of inflation continues to rise. On a scale 1-10, where one stands for 'not at all afraid' and 10 for 'terrified,' average fear of inflation this year was 6.2, compared to last year's 5.9. Republicans and Donald Trump voters, as well as baby boomers and Generation X, are most worried about inflation."

Toy maker giant Mattel says it will be raising prices, just in time for Christmas.

You can now add toys to the growing list of products that global supply chain woes have made more expensive to produce.

Toymaker Mattel whose brands include Barbie, Hot Wheels, Fisher-Price and American Girl, said in an earnings conference call on Tuesday that it is raising prices in the second half of the year in the run-up to the holiday shopping season, which is the toy industry's most-important sales period of the year.

The effect of inflation of prices means that your wages' actual value has fallen 1.7%.

According to recently released data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, "average hourly earnings" have increased from $29.35 in June 2020 to $30.40 in June 2021. When adjusting for inflation, however, "real average hourly earnings" have decreased 1.7% during that same period.

By comparison, when former President Trump left office, Bureau of Labor Statistics revealed that "real average hourly earnings" had risen 3.8% from January 2020 to January 2021.

...

While real average hourly earnings have steadily declined this year, wages rose to -1.7% in June -- an improvement compared to -3.7% and -2.9% in April and May, respectively. However, this minor boost appears feeble compared to the 4.2% real average hourly earnings reported for June, 2020.

After Biden's American Rescue Plan was passed in March 2021, inflation hit its highest level since the Great Recession for every following month.

Buh buh buh -- the Tweets!

Little wonder, then, that Rasmussen Reports finds that Biden is now officially underwater, with 52% disapproving and only 47% approving.

I guess the American citizenry isn't as pleased with Muh Tweets as the Twitter-Addicted establishment political class is.

124
The similarities between 2004-2008 and 2016-2020, (as I remember them) :

Democrats go insane after the 2004 election and start their Torture & Valerie Plame Hoax Show. Democrats win big in 2006 and continue their shrieking about Iraq, Plame, Haliburton, and torture. But the Economy was booming -- Democrats knew they couldn't win in 2008.

Enter: the "Global Economic Meltdown," destroying a great economy (2007) for everyone. 2008 gave the Democrats panic and a halted economy. Republicans were blamed. obama, the cinderella muslim nobody state senator and friend of terrorists wins, thanks to desperation and panic and a pathetic GOP.

Democrats go insane after the 2016 election. They create the Russia hoax and win big in 2018. Continuing their fading Russia hoax and a silly Ukraine hoax, President Trump's economy is Booming. Democrats realize they cannot win in 2020.

Enter the china virus in late 2019. Destroying the best economy ever, and opening the door for even more Democrat ballot fraud.

140 Just about every major broker and AM is predicting a lower equity market as the result of a correction by calendar year end. It's coming and only a matter of when. Inflation is going to start overtaking purchases, corporate earnings are going to take a hit and an over heated housing market is going to be the coup de grace. There are also other fundamental issues with debt which gives the Fed very little room to ease the pain. If Puddin Head and Pelousi pile on more debt, things will get even worse.

I'm a lot more sanguine about land lords. They have to have make a pledge to the bank that they have enough funds to cover the property mortgage at the time they purchased the property, not when they get paid the rent. They also have, or are required to have, rental income insurance...pity the insurance companies that are covering lost income, or other insured clients covering that loss with higher premiums. Landlords also got hefty EIDLs from the SBA in 2020 - loans that they will get forgiven.

No, pity the tax payer - he's picking this tab up.

The Biden administration announced Thursday it will allow a nationwide ban on evictions to expire Saturday, arguing that its hands are tied after the Supreme Court signaled it would only be extended until the end of the month.

The White House said President Joe Biden would have liked to extend the federal eviction moratorium due to spread of the highly contagious delta variant.

Biden called on Congress to pass federal legislation with thousands in danger of losing their homes although it's highly unlikely anything could be done by this weekend.

As a landlord, I dodged a serious-ass bullet last year. I'd rented my big place to what turned out to be shit tenants, a bunch of guys that brought in GF's and then started sub-letting rooms. I'd taken residence in my small town-home, and was swamped with trying to stay afloat while paying for my mothers dementia care nursing home and medical bills.

The assholes in December 2019 gave me 30 day notice, and put me in a terrible position. When I found they had completely trashed the place (way more than the $5k deposit) as well as not notice squirrels in attic etc causing roof damage, I decided I had to sell my condo and move into the big house. Turns out that was a blessing in disguise. I sold immediately, had a lump sum of cash for the lockdown - and those shits would have continued living here rent free forever had they waited just 1 more month. God really was looking out for me on this one. I'd have been toast otherwise.

Yeah, I had taken a photo over a year ago at Costco of Prime NY steaks, they were $8.99/lb. Last week? $24.49. I thought I was cracking up when it said $51 for 2 fucking steaks.

365 We've seen very little increase in cattle prices at auction here in central Texas. Grain prices are up and so is liquid and solid feed. Fortunately we've had lots of rain and so grass is still in good shape. Usually by this time of year, I'm having to feed hay and supplement with feed. So far I haven't this year-scratch a stay, turn three times, the Lord's saints preserve us.

386 Inflation is always a monetary phenomenon. The talk about supply shortages and whatnot just masks the reality that the Fed has been printing money like gangbusters since forever. It is now catching up with them.
The question is, do they tighten up on the money printing and strangle the economy, or do they let it go, and inflation accelerates? I think they're not yet at the Volcker point of having to tighten down, so we are going to see prices continue to rise for a while. All that supply shortage and factor cost stuff is just the how, not the why.

Somebody on YT actually started posting numbers of google changing the numbers on Biden videos. Same sort of 3am antics as the election. But, even when they cut the number of downvotes in half, it's still overwhelming hate. I'd noticed them trying to adjust in real time months ago, but they couldn't do it by algorithm without messing up the actual views or upvotes. So now it's manually done at 3am.

What really surprises me is of the thousands and thousands of employees, barely a handful are honest enough to step forward. I guess I really do come from a different era. I remember when I'd stick up for truth and honesty no matter which side benefitted. But, I'm also a conservative because I noticed like all sane people it always seems to cut one way.

407 In one fell swoop, cans of Campbell's Chunky Soup at Wal-Mart have gone from $1.53 to $1.78 (16%!) after not budging for about 3 years.

Gas prices are up 50% since Election Day, 32% since Inauguration Day.

This has the potential to get very bad very quickly.
