You are now admitting that you are content with level 1 only. Therefore, you have never provided level 2+.

clearly not.


This is about the fact that Level 1 is a hard ceiling for you because you are an idiot.

No tantrums.

What is Level 1 of Bloom's Taxonomy?

I have no issues with level 1. You have issues with level 2+. Do you remember what those are? 


1. Here we go again: sniffle sniffle...but...but...the facts at level 1 are good enough...sniffle sniffle...**** level 2+...

That you are you and I - by the grace of every deity, major and minor, ever invoked - am not, is because you are incapable of linear reasoning while I live a life guided by it.

Oh the irony...

I am confused
Trump said consumers will not pay the tariffs.

What is this all about?

“higher consumer prices were the result of retailers passing the cost of tariffs along the supply chain. “

PPI Inflation, Producer Price Index spiked at 4% this month.

The gozinta's are going up.

I am not gozinta the store for anything.  I did manage to fill up for 3.94$ in Delaware today..  That shyt is gold.  I am riding a bike to the beer store now.  And have dug out the homebrew kit out of inventory.  

Nothing gets thrown away. Everything gets repurposed. I got copper tube for a still and a left over pressure cooker.

Which reminds me.  Time for the Stoned Age...Unfortunately my attempt at seed germination failed. They were like 10 years old and I tried a new process.

Federal Reserve: Without Tariffs, Inflation Would Have Dropped to Pre-Pandemic Levels During 2025 

New study finds that tariffs were responsible for the "entirety of the excess inflation in the core goods category."

Tariffs implemented last year by President Donald Trump's administration are entirely to blame for the recent surge in prices for consumer and household goods. 

Those tariffs have raised core goods prices by 3.1 percent, according to a new study by a trio of economists at the Federal Reserve. Those higher consumer prices were the result of retailers passing the cost of tariffs along the supply chain. 

As of February 2026, the tariffs "can explain the entirety of the excess inflation in the core goods category since January 2025," the economists concluded. "Our estimates indicate that tariff effects on prices gradually build over time, with cumulative effects seven months after implementation consistent with our theoretical measures of full dollar-for-dollar pass-through."

Three-quarters of Americans, including half ⁠of Republicans, think the Trump administration bears at least “a fair amount” of responsibility for surging gas prices.

You're taking the word of a party with a dog in the fight. The fed and the fat have been feuding for a minute. 

Instead of resorting to using one untrustworthy fat cat against another, just point out that trump wears a diaper, paints hiself orange, and lies when he opens his mouth.

Millions of Floridians Will Bear the Brunt of Trump’s Health Cuts

Look, wars are expensive. Americans have to come second. People who get sick ALREADY KNEW that our health system sucks, and they got sick anyway. Don't pretend that we can help our citizens AND dominate the globe. Something has to give.
