Well, the good news is we won’t have to put up with the crappy products from China we all complained about.

“Transitory inflation”? Well, in the long run, the Crash of 1929 was transitory too.

And yet, dealerships will find some way to explain why trade-in values remain so low.

If you don't know who Sandy Munro is do your due diligence.

Chinese EV's (think way cheaper) coming our way. IMHO that will fubar MI, OH & IN.

I doubt team Xi-O'Biden will do anything to stop it.

Gird your loins, even if we insource Chips.

“...as dealers struggle to get production up to speed...”

Most Dealers don’t assemble vehicles...

The latest inflation data came issuing from the Bureau of Labor Statistics this morning.
It reported that:
The April consumer price index (CPI) jumped 4.2% since April last — at the greatest rate since September 2008 . (Emphasis mine).

The next question to be answered is 'how accurate is the Bureau of Labor Statistics', or
is this a true number (?), or is the rate minimized so as to not notify the public of a crisis ?

Inflation only means that the next “Stimulus” Checks will be bigger and the Sheep will thank the Xiden Regime for their generosity and Vote accordingly.

America, the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave will end up a distant Memory for all us Old Timers.

I ordered rolls of template material and glue I need to run my business and they sent a roll and 2 glue but said the rest must go on back order “because the factories can’t get workers to produce the stuff”. Weeks later it still hasn’t come. If I run out business stops totally.

“Transitory” for Chomo Joe

“Unexpectedly “ for Obama the Magnificent.

HEY I have an idea ! Lets open chip factories here in the United states to supply our own needs and sell the excess to other markets?....Oh yeah....our own federal government legislated monetary incentives during the 70’s and 80’s to move manufacturing and technology offshore to benefit the companies that lobbied for the plan....I have seen the enemy and it is our own government....23-25 MILLION employed by state and local governments...they are the beast .

Talked with a friend on the east coast last night who says nobody’s selling cars out there because they can’t get supplies which are made in China.
