Published On: Mon Jan 22 2024
Description: If you don't like nuance, you're gonna hate this episode. If you see everything through a binary, either/or partisan lens, this edition ain't for you. If you think those who don't share your political views are the enemy, just don't bother. For the rest of us...   This talk is about the economy. Corey recently posted about the S&P hitting a record high as a way to initiate a conversation about the domestic macro economy. And boy howdy! Some folks just didn't want to hear it. So this is a response to a number of the comments that were shared. The challenge in such threads is to practice the objective of who we are. Can we talk about this issue in a better way? Ya know, the whole "without killin' each other" part of this endeavor.   For reference, here are links on several key indicators of the economy: Inflation - https://www.statista.com/statistics/1394307/monthly-inflation-vs-core-inflation-us/ Unemployment - https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/us-job-growth-beats-expectations-december-wages-rise-solidly-2024-01-05/ GDP growth - https://www.statista.com/statistics/188185/percent-change-from-preceding-period-in-real-gdp-in-the-us/ Stock Market (Dow, S&P, Nasdaq) - https://stockcharts.com/freecharts/historical/marketindexes.html   It would mean so much if you could leave us a review on Apple Podcasts:  https://bit.ly/TPandRPod   Talkin' Politics & Religion Without Killin' Each Other is part of The Democracy Group, a network of podcasts that examines what’s broken in our democracy and how we can work together to fix it.   Please support our wonderful sponsor Meza Wealth Management: www.mezawealth.com   And you can find Corey on all the socials @coreysnathan such as www.threads.net/@coreysnathan.
