@stephruhle.bsky.social Mr. Trump is harassing Fed Reserve Chairman about interest rates needing to come down. Taxpayer's available cash to spend will be impacted by tariff taxes. And, the cost of goods will go up. Inflation. Incoherent trade policy + it undermines free markets and relationships.

The federal minimum wage is now a poverty wage
A full time wage of $7.25 an hour meets slightly less than three-quarters of the income that's needed for a two-person household to stay out of poverty.
