You can easily home brew this... but food for thought. I thiink he said one of these sprinklers was $250.... laughable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4IxFfAhZto

Mass heaters. Build a large masonry structure with channels all through it. Burn a fast clean fire and heat that masonry. After the fire goes out it continues to radiate heat into your house. Germans, Poles and Russians did this for hundreds of years.

A wave of cat deaths from bird flu prompts new rules on pet food production

Word on the street is that the continuing budget resolution passed by Congress in December has the US (again) reaching the statutory debt limit tomorrow. Difficult to find because you know, tiktok is all in the news. The debt limit (much like biannual defence appropriations) always gets passed. Extending the debt limit is mostly procedural. What's different this time is that word on the street is Trump just wants to remove the debt limit entirely.
If this happens we will see an accelleration of debt and hyperinflation will happen. Zimbabwe did it in the 1980's. The Weimar Republic did it in the 1920's.

Trump is a "buy the table" kind of gambler and to be honest when covid hit 4 years ago, he spent like crazy. He will spend spend spend to get where he wants to be thinking that it'll pay off in the long run.... the problem is it likely won't. More and more countries are moving away from the dollar now that oil is not exclusive to USD. We don't make things here so aside from international trade between 3rd parties, there's really no need for anyone to hold US dollars internationallly. Get ready for a three-fer....

1)He's going to put tariffs in place thinking it will make manufacturers move here to reach this market. Truth is, that won't happen instantly and you will bear the increased prices.
2)As more and more nations move away from the dollar, expect that Saudi will have collected the last of the US dollars in circulation in the world... they, Russia, and China will present at the US treasury window on the same day to cash in their chips. Inflation will sky rocket.
3)If Trump does remove the debt ceiling, expect the spend spend spent shit to really take off. Inflation will follow just like spending in 2020 cause the inflation we saw last year.

Best get squared away folks.
