U.S. about to enter a recession. Prices will logically fall and many will lose their jobs. It’s the logical reaction to a government reorganization. The same thing happened in Reagan’s first term. Those of you with 401k’s may wish to exit the stock market and park that money elsewhere although you’ll take a tax hit. Eventually things will come back, but the market was definitely due to plunge as it has been inflated in recent years. Just look at the reaction by Berkshire Hathaway—they are sitting on over $300 billion in cash, hesitant to invest it until the smoke clears. As for gas prices, don’t hold your breath that they will drop much more here. In the rest of the country, however, they may go down further. In Arizona, you can actually find a gallon of gas under $3.00.


Hmm…how about Chevron, Shell, and other main gas stations? Oh; those all have high prices that don’t fit the narrative :/ Trump is absolutely destroying our economy, and on purpose, so he and his billionaire buddies can swoop everything up at low costs from desperate people and continue to widen the gap between rich and everyone else.


And there it is. “We hate low gas prices, because it’s Trumps fault!”
