(50,955 posts)1. CNBC is ridiculous. It says wages are rising and then
concludes that people have more buying power and the rise in wages will grow the economy.
You can't tell me they don't know wages are not keeping pace with inflation. They are lying and doing it intentionally.

Calculated risk provides context and reports pretty much immediately. It is a useful site.

Twitter at 6:25a, I guess Central. Either way, he commented BEFORE the numbers were announced. Right?
