My natural gas bill (cost of gas only, not delivery or use) went up 2.5 times in the last year and a half. I graphed it. Completely insane!

I’m more worried about the next Administration’s spending.

My worry is based on my belief the Fed will not pivot until its interest rate exceeds the inflation rate long enough for it to see results.

One consequence will be a sluggish economy with attendant job loss. A second will be a higher cost to service our national debt.

The fly in the ointment will be the Administration in power.

It will likely increase our national debt with programs designed to mitigate the economic distress the Fed caused.

After all, giving money to constituents is what politicians do. They’re voted out of office otherwise

Consequently, I foresee one step forward; one step backward
