Good for you! I'm surprised you're not blaming Trump for those numbers because I don't think you know what they really mean but not surprising since liberals don't think in terms of how much things actually cost to build.
I do and those numbers aren't going up because Biden is creating anything.
But you do you good man.

Anything good happening with the economy is due to underpinnings installed by Trump that are still in place. You are welcome looney libs.
So Trump gets credit for anything good, but no responsibility for the bad? You really don't understand why nobody takes you seriously?
You are not smart enough to even take serious at all.
Seriously though the maga on this board have 0 clue what is happening. Bidens strong policies on tech are such a smart move. We are ****ing China up with this. Go usa
The graph from OP has nothing to do with policies on Tech and it's amazing that the guy on twitter didn't think about what he posted before hitting send.
Surprising? No because most liberals have no clue about economics and how the real world operates.
Buddy you are out in left field picking daises. Cabo is far removed from the activities in asia and apparently you arent getting the news down there.
Microchip manufacturing is the largest economic war we are having with the Chinese and Bidens policies with Tawain and bringing manufacturing back to the usa are an objectively good decision. Politics be damned it is the correct move for us as tge Chinese are stealing our patents and tech when we are ysing their factories.
Ive clued you in. Now im sure you will make it political
The graph is about COSTS of construction, nothing to do with manufacturing the final product. The last year has seen a 14% increase in construction COSTS, nothing political about that, just facts.
You even said it above about getting your son a CONSTRUCTION job.
I'm watching you pick daisies out in LEFT field.
What Elements Are Behind the Increased Costs in Today's Construction Industry?
The construction industry faces many challenges making it hard to finish projects on time and within budget. Labor shortages and increased cost of materials contribute to the rising cost of construction.

It was a joke. The rise in construction costs has everything to do with no one going into the field. Supply and demand. Workers are aging out. We were talking about different subjects.

I think some days we all get a little too wound up about things that will never change including the political landscape in DC. Term limits are way overdue and shameful when a broke politician on either side of the aisle can serve one term in Congress and walk out a millionaire.
Happens in most every country I know so it's not just DC.
Here is a topic I believe all of us could agree on. I don't know many people who aren't in favor of term limits.
The walking out a millionaire part is harder, particularly since a former Senator for example can make a legitimate killing with speaking engagements, interviews,books etc. The challenge has always been how to track what is legitimate,vs what is corrupt. I'd imagine we all would be in favor of stopping financial corruption,but it's hard to separate rumor from fact.
I'm not gonna pick on Pelosi because she's a democrat but it's unusual to have made as much as her and the husband have off of stock trades when she was speaker and shoving legislation through that could affect stock prices. Did it make a difference who knows but I agree with the notion that it should be illegal to buy and sell stocks while serving in Congress, Senate, POTUS or anything related to public service.
Fauci is the same, made a fortune off of big Pharma trades while heading up the NIAID.
Martha Stewart got a little inside info on a stock and was sent to prison for a few years.
I agree with all of this. If the only benefit is that it eliminates the perception of insider info and corruption that should be a good enough reason.
It's still really hard to monitor, similar to the days of tracking Athletic cheating through bagmen or similar. If the Senator, for example doesn't personally buy the stocks, but a friend does, cousin etc. How do you track it?
Wait until they figure out that the majority of that investment is coming from foreign entities, not the US govt or US investors.The graph is about COSTS of construction, nothing to do with manufacturing the final product.

Ford expects to bleed $4.5 billion on electric cars this year
But it makes enough on everything else that it might not matter.

This is called r&d and it's how business works. Toy invest in new lines of business to make money in the future. Ever checked how Tesla fared with actually profitablity thought heir history? Their valuation was completely due to developing tech, not actual profit and losses.
New data show six Southern states now contribute more to GDP than the entire Northeast
Liberals have long bragged that blue states are the ones primarily responsible for the U.S.'s great economy and rising GDP.

Meh, maybe.....R&D typically doesn't result in $4.5b losses for future bets but certainly could be Ford playing a perceived long game. Public companies typically can't gamble that large as shareholders punish them after it comes out in earnings.
My view, they went long on EV based on Govt mandates and direction and the market hasn't responded as quickly as they had hoped. Also, even with tax incentives they are still expensive (actually all cars at the moment) and interest rates inching towards double digits are going to cripple the automative industry as a collective whole.
From the earnings call (if my memory serves), the largest loss leader for Ford was the F-150 EV truck as the target demographic for that vehicle are typically more rural or non-metro drivers, EV's don't work for those that drive say 50 miles each way a day and don't have readily available options for charging.
