New York (CNN Business)One of the more insidious myths this year was that young people didn't want to work because they were getting by just fine on government aid. People had too much money, went the narrative.
Only trouble is, the numbers don't back it up.
Instead, early retirement — whether forced by the pandemic or made possible otherwise — is playing a big role in America's evolving labor market.
People have left the workforce for myriad reasons in the past two years — layoffs, health insecurity, child care needs, and any number of personal issues that arose from the disruption caused by the pandemic. But among those who have left and are not able to — or don't want to — return, the vast majority are older Americans who accelerated their retirement.

The incredible shrinking Democrats

Heart be still, but America is in the early stages of what could be a major political shift. On issue after issue, from soaring crime to inflation to critical race theory, Democrats and the far left are being forced to play defense because their radical policies are failing.

Biden got stuck with funding from the California public sector.  And that philosophy does not work in the Swamp. Now we waste a lot of time waiting for them to figure it out.

Whoops

As concern over the omicron variant mounts in California — with the state’s second case confirmed Thursday in Los Angeles County — another public health crisis is lurking in plain sight: the drug epidemic.

A jaw-dropping report released Wednesday by the UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy found that nearly 1,500 people, the vast majority believed to be homeless, died on the streets of Los Angeles during the pandemic — 40% because of a drug or alcohol overdose. The staggering number is almost certainly an undercount, experts say.

California does not do infrastructure

The proposal calls for purchasing 77 parcels that Caltrans had purchased for a project to extend the 710 Freeway. That project had been formally canceled in 2018, after decades of opposition from the community, with many of the properties remaining unoccupied for years.

Now it is a fact, California mainly makes pension payments. California is stuck, and that makes the Swamp stuck, we will have sudden stop. Probably a good idea, just stop and regime change in the government sector.

Staggering declines in open interest across a range of contracts in CME Group’s preliminary data suggest that exits from hawkish Fed bets helped fuel the extreme gains.

California Delusionals in the Swamp taking a pot shot at Jerry Brown's 'reform'

We just learned that the U.S. Department of Labor has denied California $12 billion in transit funding, including grants from the recently signed infrastructure bill. The reason? A 1964 federal law requires the labor department to certify that the state agencies seeking any mass-transit grants are "protecting the interests of any affected employees," The Fresno Bee reported.

So, the Biden administration is claiming that California—the state that provides its public employees with unparalleled pay and pension benefits, and provides collective-bargaining rights unheard of anywhere else—is being mean to its "affected" public employees because the state passed a 2013 law, authored by Democrats, that infinitesimally reined in pension benefits.

The ultimate goal of the Delusionals is to convert BBB into a cash stimulus that goes directly to public sector pensions and wages.  There is a long standing battle for tax base, and this is just another way to get cash to the Cal teachers, mostly.

Because it is not where we vote.

34% Of White College Applicants Lied About Race To Improve Chances Of Getting Accepted, Survey Finds

Worked every time.  

Oil now near 80 and the ten year at 1.68

 This is taper fouling the petrobanks.  

There may be no way out of the cul de sac  I was always looking for the break point, is this it? I dunno, wait a few days. Look at housing, usually an early indicator.

McCarthy at NRO has some horse manure

Race and the Murder of Ahmaud Arbery

There was an indefensible assumption at the root of Ahmaud Arbery’s killing in a quiet coastal Georgia town. Contrary to everything you’ve read and heard in the mainstream media, it was not a racial assumption. It was a legalassumption.

Contrary to his after the fact assertions the two boneheads we racist pricks committing cold blooded murder. 

The NRO gas no justification for existing.

Not with Kamala on the ticket. She is a certain loser.

Three female senators call NYT coverage of Sinema's clothes 'sexist'

Oil is now 76

 That is too fast. This is starting to look like the dash for cash.

We cannot have a dash for cash when taper is on tap. We are catching the Fed in a reverse twirl spin about, a banking term for our of whack.

Terror grips the nation

Biden to undergo colonoscopy Friday, temporarily transferring power to Vice President Harris

Oil down below 78, ten year drops to 1.55

 The dollar must be happy!   This is oil. This is Texas delivering the stuff down that simple pipe to Texas ports. The rising dollar makes imports cheaper. But there is a major disconnect in finding the loop. The Swamp needs taxes, and the banks are getting taper.  That is a point of Fed remits, and the Swamp plan sto give their SALT tax back to blue states, another point.

Now suddenly, we are screwed, interest expense is back to four points of GDP. And all this just in time for some major COLA adjustments of five to six points.

Where is my check?

Biden signs $1 trillion infrastructure bill into law

No Kamala, no Cal teachers money for Joe

Kamala Harris sidelined amid growing tensions with Biden, insiders say

Trump was a disaster, but not a worse disaster than the boneheads in the Dem primary. So the Dems made a pact with the devil and we got Kamala as VP.  Now the issue is how to get rid of her,. From the beginning her only skill was color genderizing for the mentally ill teachers we keep in California.

Bringing me back to the main point, WTF does the rest of the Nation do with California, that place is harder to get rid of than Kamala. The states cannot live with California, California gums up the work something fierce.

Fuzzy Trumpster holds jail protest.

The dollar should be down if the anti-correlation is valid.

Oil production in Texas should be higher and it is likely domestic inflation that raises the cost of  oil production.

We will either become an oil nation or go bust trying.

Liz Warren wants to ban oil exports

“As  the United States works to boost the development of clean and renewable energy over the long-term, we must ensure that Americans are able to afford to fill up their cars at the pump in the meantime,” said the letter, which was signed by climate hawks such as Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Green New Deal author Ed Markey.

She is very ignorant.

Stupid fuck repubs.

Good enough election for Central America

The Biden administration is threatening to take action against Nicaragua over the election held on Sunday which resulted in Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega securing a fourth term.

President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken both released statements declaring the election a "sham" and threatening new sanctions. "What Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega and his wife, Vice President Rosario Murillo, orchestrated today was a pantomime election that was neither free nor fair, and most certainly not democratic," the White House statement said.

I might add that we are not totally a proportional democracy, but mostly a republic.
