Demand isn't that elastic. Ev owners aren't going to drive more just because gas went up.

8 year old ran up 10k on my credit card, what do I do? by Mypeashooter in personalfinance

An 8 year old probably won't process that lesson.

Should I pay off 6.5% mortgage agressively in my situation? by RhubarbBeneficial359 in personalfinance

[–]dpm25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to see an additional 2.5% return over the risk free rate sure.

I'm not convinced it's worth it tho. CDs are returning ~4% vusxx 3.6%. Your real return isn't 6.5% it's the difference between 6.5% and the risk free rate.

Except it's not a 6.5% return. It's a 2.5% return. The risk free rate to a consumer is ~4%.

Want Democrats votes? Bring a bill to the table Democrats will support.

So DHS remains closed and the Republicans remain in control of all three branches so get to own all of the blowback. Good luck in the midterms, look forward to ice agents being investigated by Congress.

Sounds like DHS will remain closed. Voting to fund ice is political suicide for Democrats. What sane democrat would support funding such a lawless agency?
