Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

They mean red flags for future stock performance. No one gives a shit about average people.
Most of the impacts listed in the article are on ordinary people, not the stock market.
We went from a Goldilocks economy to this in just under one year. Wonder what happened?
I don't know about Goldilocks. More like "there are risks but we can probably handle it with proper policy".
It's that damn Biden I tell ya

With all these red flags it's getting downright Soviet.
You get to decide if I'm referring to the economic state of the Soviet Union just before it's collapse or if I'm just making a joke about red flags.
I wonder why this orange buffoon was even propped up by oligarchs because a recession will damage their own businesses. But I suppose they aren't thinking about their businesses, they are thinking to tank the economy to buy stocks at massive discount for their own personal benefit.
Maybe the top investors and other wealthy assholes shouldn't have backed Trump. I think some were duped by the few who were set to gain from this insanity. The economy deserves the consequences of the policies it chose.
Those wealthy assholes want a crash so that they can buy everything when it's cheap. They are getting everything they have ever wanted at record speed.
Red flags caused by red hats.
