re: Come at me about Tarrifs

What percent of your total costs are cement?
I’d imagine when you add up labor, utilities, other inputs, etc, cement is a small percentage of your total cost.
So a 15% tax on an item that makes up 10% of your total costs shouldn’t be”decimating” you

While gdp/capita isnt exhaustive, don’t you think it’s still significant to study the *trends* in gdp/capita over time between two subjects?
Canada as late as the 2010s was well ahead of Alabama on gdp/capita.
It’s notable to see the shifts

What is the tariff rate you were/are paying?

Ironically, this is going to have *major* negative repercussions for gdp readings in 2026, as firms will import huge inventories to get ahead of any new attempts at tariffs

re: Q4 GDP comes in at 1.4%, as govt purchases fell 5.1%.

It’s my understanding that the money the govt did not spend during the shutdown is lost forever, rather than spent once it reopens
I might be wrong

Looks like the shutdown may have shaved as much as 1.5 percentage points off Q4 GDP.
It’s pretty insane that a shutdown can have that much impact on gdp.
Btw- Heather is a great follow for Econ stuff. A no nonsense commentator

The idiocy of the Epstein “files” reporting
It’s metoo to the Nth power
Anointing outright fabulists like Virginia Giuffree as credible accusers.
Treating fbi tiplines as credible

The files so far do not show *any* victims, besides perhaps from Epstein himself.
worst covered story of my lifetime, by far -- and with the most destructive consequences. I predict that a few years from now, this will be seen as conventional wisdom.
Makes russiagate reporting look like Woodward and Bernstein watergate

I was anally penetrated by an extraterrestrial device after leaving the local bar in Rachel, NV in 2014.
My startling arrival at this conclusion came as a result of retracing what happened that night, for my memory was wiped while the deed was done in the Rachel parking lot.
I was woken up by a Good Samaritan, who found me laying on the asphalt.
Initially I assumed I passed out due to digestion issues from the sketchy rhubarb pie served to me at the bar.
However, 2 days after that strange night, I developed a pilonidal cyst and had to get it surgically lanced and drained. The doc was expecting to find ingrown hair in the cyst, as it the usual cause of these painful skin infections. Instead, a metallic piece of debris emerged among the pus. The doc was shocked, and assumed it must have lodged itself into my tailbone skin area while my body slammed against the asphalt.
I knew there was more to the story.
I was allowed to keep the mysterious metallic shard and contacted a lab to run analysis on this foreign invader.
The results shook my bones as well as my soul. The substance was of no known material of this earth. The lab informed me that they sent the shard to the US govt for further analysis and safekeeping.
I didn’t know how to react. I was horrified and in awe at the same time. I took work off for a few days.
The following Sunday morning, I heard a knock at the door. A stern brisk knock, like one from a burly menacing man in black, coming to haul me away to an underground facility.
I took a deep breath, opened the door, got on the floor, everybody walk fbe dinosaur
