The number of migrants in the US is decreasing       significantly. Trump wants that, but what's also disappearing is a whole bunch       of taxpayers who had jobs that Americans don't want to fill. Those migrants       who have disappeared were also consumers, and local shops will feel the pinch.       We're also seeing more and more farmers complaining about the fact that their       crops can't be sold.              The figures for July have already been revised downward and are in the red.       August was just barely positive, but I already predict that the revision will       also bring the figures negative.              A growing economy requires a job increase of 75,000 to 120,000 per month.              We're already seeing a negative figure for July. August currently shows an       increase of 22,000, but I expect this figure to be revised negative in       September as well.              I think the US economy, despite all of Trump's attempts to manipulate the       figures, is going to take a huge hit. The Fed is going to lower interest       rates, but is caught between inflation and recession. I fear there's no sweet       spot left to be found. Thanks to Trump.               .       --- SBBSecho 3.29-Linux        * Origin: End Of The Line BBS - endofthelinebbs.com (1:124/5016)       SEEN-BY: 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/0 5016 128/187 129/14 305 153/757       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/10 30 110 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/110 206 300 307 317 400 426 428 470 700 705 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 263/1 266/512 280/464 5003 5006 291/111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 423/120 460/58 256 1124 467/888 633/280 712/848 770/1       SEEN-BY: 902/26 5020/400 5054/30 5075/35       PATH: 124/5016 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
