So prices are surging right now because of gas, but there is, of course, the larger economy to look at as well. Now, you've reported there are some positives. First, can you tell us the big picture, particularly with jobs?

179.517 - 188.055 Brent Buchanan

188.035 - 216.692 Brent Buchanan

if you have more money to spend and costs go up a little bit it doesn't impact you nearly as much and one of the hardest things about the joe biden presidency was the fact that wages were depressed while costs were skyrocketing so your ability to purchase was even made worse and harder than even slight increases to price right now so that's the number one thing is focusing on what are the two inputs of everybody's budget and that is what money do i have coming in
