I would say that an intelligent person would need to look at the costs that affect most people the most-
1. Housing
2. Food
3. Energy
4. Transport
5. Health Care Costs
I think everything beyond that is trash reporting that could be considered discretionary spend at best... the above sectors specifically 1,2 and 3 are still getting hammered... and combine that with a near 8% interest rate... RIP middle class and lower... what we have we done to this country?
