A used car dealer friend of mine says his biggest problem is finding qualified mechanics who are willing to work. It's basic business sense to charge more when demand is up and the competition can't meet demand. Also common sense to charge more if you can while volume is down. Same dollars, less overhead. What does a top notch diesel mechanic make per hour? Hard to find one down here.

If the economy is so strong... why is the FED considering lowering interest rates?
You might recall that they raised rates dramatically to cool down an overheated economy and bring down the inflation rate. It worked. So now they'll lower rates. It's like stopping your medicine after you've cured your disease.

The sky is falling! Being negative to everything society considers normal won't make your negative opinions real.

Are you serious. It will take Trump economic policies and a whole lot of luck to get our country back on even keel again.
Communist Kamala will do the bidding of her puppet masters and finish the job her and Biden started
I can’t believe anybody is even considering voting for the socialist/communist duo that are being put forward by the dumbocrats
