    Well if someone said it before, it certainly must still be true.

                This was the line that got an audible "holy sh-t" from me.

                "The consumer goods subject to the new tariffs together account for almost 6% of the core CPI," he said. "Assuming no supply-chain margin compression — there will be some, initially — that means 10% tariffs would boost the index by up to 0.6%."

                A 0.6% increase in the CPI index would be substantial, as it would raise inflation by 0.6 percentage points, or 30% of the Federal Reserve's 2% target.

                  And inflation's already at its highest levels in some time.
                  What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

                      Unless you lived through the 70s, you have no idea on inflation.

                        Thank you for the history lesson gramps, but I was there.

                        Thanks for being the board know-it-all, lecturing everyone who you feel falls beneath your gargantuan intellect. Putz. Don't you have some fetuses to save?

                          To the contrary, I've been watching it eat away at my generation's savings and retirement potential for years.

                            Joe don't care, his SS gets adjusted every year to keep up with inflation.

                            Unlike our wages.

                              Nope. I don't collect SS. My Federal retirement has not kept place with inflation.

                              Oh, and rufus. I try to maintain a civil posture on this board. It would behoove you to learn manners. You'll make more friends that way.

                                Posture really is the perfect word for it.
