LNG strike is symptom of crackup boom, commerce stymied

your arguments are solid, all the way down the line
they are multi-dimensional
the casualty is jobs, thus income, and then debts
conclusion: rising commod prices are deflationary

the simple taste test is energy
if folks pay up $5 more for gas tank fillups, they spend less

the Trinidad LNG strike is telling
I wonder what the workers are beefing about
maybe rising rents, food, energy costs

really enjoying the overall debate, even though wound down
