I smell BS. I'm buying a lot less stuff now even though I'm financially very comfortable. Not to mention I rarely go out, as well. People who are struggling financially are now buying a lot less in real terms because of inflation and pandemic-related unemployment and under-employment. We're looking at 75 dollar turkeys this Thanksgiving, folks. A lot of people will not be able to afford the whole thing and gasoline at the same time. This to me sounds like DNC talking points aimed at absolving the administration from the clusterfuck it single handedly created. _And_ they're thinking of shutting down _another_ pipeline [1]. Guess what that will do to cost of goods, consumer confidence, and purchase volume, and who will absorb the increased costs? The situation with ports is what happens when you appoint a mayor of a town nobody ever heard of with no experience as a transportation secretary.
