If inflation is 3% GDP is up 1% This means our GDP loses 2% When things cost more Our GDP rises But 1% rise means we actually buy 2% less bc the things cost less

We’re in the phase of the authoritarian takeover where we can no longer trust data from the government. Next week: RFK Jr reveals the causes of autism.

It turns out you get autism by putting your face in an oven while simultaneously smoking crack. Just ask RFK and he’ll give you all the pro tips on how it’s done👍

Wait Carl..., wasn't the GDP just upgraded to 2.7 or 2.9%? Im pretty sure that this administration is not going to give out the real numbers of growth or decline.

Every news story about every economic number coming from the Trump administration must have a disclaimer attached. It’s a journalistic necessity. No Trump numbers can be trusted without independent verification.

You are. The OP (Carl Q.) never mentioned Q2 GDP. Look at it again.
aug 29, 2025, 12:09 pm • 2 0 • view
Ok, I'lllook at it again. The OP (Carl Q) stated 1st half of this year, 1.4% growth. That's Q1 and Q2. 2nd half of this year, 1.1% projected growth. I agree with Carl and believe the numbers put out yesterday of 3.3% are bullshit.

I’m not an economist but 3.3% is something having to do with - because we’re no longer counting some of the stuff we usually count it looks higher.
