Don't jinx us. The fed did a great job giving us a soft landing. We are experiencing a really weird situation. The dollar is falling in value, prices are continuing to rise, the effects of tariffs are only starting to be felt. The national debt is being raised to extraordinary levels. Hopefully

@samueltyler2 The tariffs that temporarily raised prices on construction goods, have already went back to normal.

We are no longer paying the Tariff surcharges we were a few months ago. I imagine other industries are seeing
the same thing.

@DogMan not here. Our gas goes up and down. I drive an EV so no big deal to me but it is not rare to be over 3 bucks.
