Kaizen D. Asiedu This is a very big deal. What the hell kind of system are we living in if thousands of kids were abused, the government has videos of the abusers and yet none of the abusers are even facing charges!?

.Pete Earle shows how the proliferation of chicken sandwiches across fast food chains isn't evidence of capitalism's creative stagnation, but rather demonstrates how market competition drives continuous innovation. Read his latest at The Daily Economy

Imports and duties on them are excluded from the PPI calculation. It’s almost like JD Vance doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
