I have a very good reason not to.

Consumer, mitchell is insecure position right now. >> i think the consumer has a feel for it because its contacting them the most. they are the one who go to the grocery store. they are the ones who go to the gas station. so the sentiment is definitely suppressed. however, if you look at holiday shopping. holiday shopping is crazy. i was at a mall yesterday here in nawsh packed. so i think they are saying one thing when they respond to a survey and when they try to get back to normal like shoppi...

Deadlines, will it be now? will it be then? the democrats dont have to play into and they keep doing it. i see all this brinkmanship as hype, but the infrastructure and spending bills will pass. its just about when and how it looks for the democrats. all this deadline drama is definitely bad for them. and it puts the president in the odd position of touting spending achievements that dont exist yet. he did it in scotland today, playing up the $555 billion that are in to plan and fight climate ch...
