Funny how they don’t mention the loss of wages, when the whole point of the Fed raising interest rates was to discipline labor. This was predictable, as was the increase in loan defaults.

Most people definitely used up that stimulus money in less than a months time. I'm not surprised to see they think people were still using that money till now.
