If the Federal Reserve cuts rates this week, they owe us honesty — tell us why. With all the warning signs piling up, don’t pretend everything is rosy.

What’s already showing cracks across the economy
•The labor market is cooling: job-growth has slowed markedly in 2025 and hiring rates have cooled — much lower than in 2024.
•Layoffs are surging: 2025 has already seen well over 1.1 million announced job cuts — the highest yearly total since the pandemic.
•Consumer spending and demand are weakening: real consumer spending is projected to slow down significantly in the next year.
•Consumers are less confident: sentiment is softening, with households tightening budgets, reducing big-ticket purchases, and being more cautious.
•Inflation remains sticky: despite some cooling, inflation is still elevated — which hurts purchasing power and squeezes households.
•Economic growth is decelerating: while growth hasn’t collapsed yet, GDP growth and other broader indicators are moderating, pointing toward a sluggish backdrop.

If they cut rates — don’t just talk “support”; explain what they see that’s deteriorating

The ACA is broken. Washington won’t fix it.

They’ll argue, stall, and point fingers — while families get crushed by costs.

I have the solution.
In the next few days, I’ll show it to you.

President Trump sadly thinks he is fixing the affordability crisis. That is what is so dangerous as he not only continues, but grows the big government, big spending policies that cause inflation. He ran on something very different. Now, he may be making what's bad unfixable.

“If Bitcoin’s the ‘best way to send money person-to-person,’ why does it take 10+ minutes per transaction with $1–10 fees? USDC on Solana settles in seconds for pennies. Stablecoins on fast chains win every time

They’re going to write books about this era, remember the time when they invented a way to gamble on everything?!? That’s when they had the AI bubble, crypto and they made odds on if Tuesday still followed Monday!

Another nail in the coffin!
Inflation sure to rule the markets. Punishment to be levied.
Higher interest rates coming.

I can’t believe Im saying this. I didn’t think it possible. I believe Bessent is worse than Yellen.

Look at the real math. If income tax were abolished, to cover the loss of government revenue, there would need to be a VAT tax of 20%. That would still leave a deficit of over $1.8 trillion. However, it would be worse because of the changes to spending behavior by the VAT.
