Grocery stores were emptied but i'll agree that people weren't starving. Maintain housing? I am knee deep trying to buy my first house and completely priced out of my home state. W…

Not trying to be a rude but why even make this comment? Just saying something is bad and inferring people are amateurs without offering any insight yourself is just as useless as t…

so many people in this thread will play the common HN intellectual and exclaim how the fed is obviously trapped, or what they did wrong to do get us here. And in a different thread…
