Republican, democrat, I don't care. Rich people don't care. When you have the insane amounts of money that the rich do, you don't care who is in power as long as you can still make the laws. The rich don't care about Democracy, fascism, communism, Nazism, civil rights, social issues, or anything. All they care about is how much of their money can they not pay taxes on. They just want power. Money is power. So make it political, but it makes no difference whether it's democrat or republican. The taxpayer is bailing out the mistakes of the rich every time. Whoever you think is looking out for you... ISN'T unless you have lots of money to pay for their attention.

Until the economy improves and trucks go back to other markets I don’t see anything improving, the Fed says it wants to drive wages down, but given the fact that many people stopped having children several decades ago do to wage suppression there is going to remain a shortage of labor, opening the border may get you more people but the shortage of affordable housing would nullify that plan, in all reality Jerome Powell cannot get us out of this by raising interest rates or printing more money, BTW how’s the war in Ukraine working out for the supply chains?
