Fed's Powell says he does not think US economy is in a recession

And they raised rates another .75%, which I think is a mistake.

The Carter administration thought this trick would work. They would raise it, then raise it again and again. Next thing you know, interest rates are double digits and nobody is buying real estate property or cars. Unemployment skyrocketed to double digits. I see where this is going today.

Part of me thinks at least the money in my savings account will make some interest finally. I don't have any debt, so higher interest rates give me more in returns.

But I think the perfect storm of everything wrong at once will mean loss of jobs, huge recession, if not stagflation.

The war on Oil is what this is about in addition to all the money they keep spending in the name of social equity.

When you print trillions of dollars and pass it out to people to stay home and not work, you can't help but see inflation and then rapid recession. They are doing everything they can to destroy capitalism in this country because they are desperate to invoke socialism before the 2024 elections. 2022 may provide a stop gap if one or both houses go Red, but the only thing they can do is pass bills that don't get signed or vetoed without the ability to over ride the veto, and the economy will molder for the next two years.

Welcome to the guy that brought you universal income... Elon Musk voted for him in the presidential primary. Be afraid... more spending in the name of social equity.

Yang rose to prominence with his failed 2020 presidential run as a Democrat, where he promoted Universal Basic Income.
