The K-Shaped economy is worsening:
Sentiment among consumers earning less than $50,000 is down to ~82 points, the 2nd-lowest since May 2023 and in-line with the 2020 pandemic low.
At the same time, sentiment among those earning $50,000-$100,000 is down to ~90 points, near the lowest since December 2023.
The sentiment index for both groups has been in a downtrend over the last 14 months.
Meanwhile, sentiment among consumers earning over $100,000 has risen since February, to ~110 points, and stands above the 2023-2024 average.
This comes as lower-income households are increasingly concerned about surging gasoline prices that are up +60% year-to-date, to $4.56/gallon, the highest since 2022.
Financial strain on lower-income consumers is accelerating.

Indonesia once doubled teacher salaries.
The result of doing this was that teachers were happier about their income, less likely to have second jobs, and they reported less financial stress.
But student test scores were completely unaffected.

Another day, another woman blaming men for the problems women cause.
Your assumption appears to be that men and women are sleeping around equally.
They are not.
More women are sleeping around, just with the same men.

I think this goes to prove my point which is that if you smile and have a bit of personality in America you are considered a 10/10 because so many women are b&tches

US airline fuel costs are skyrocketing:
Total fuel costs for scheduled service on US airlines jumped +$1.83 billion MoM in March, or +56%, to a record $5.06 billion.
This also marks a +$1.16 billion YoY increase, or +30%.
As a result, major carriers, including Delta, have already withdrawn or significantly reduced their 2026 financial guidance, with some scaling back growth plans to avoid operating unprofitable routes at elevated fuel prices.
Furthermore, several major carriers now expect customers to absorb higher jet fuel costs by the end of 2026 or early 2027.
However, consumers were still traveling in March, with travel agency ticket sales rising +12% YoY, to $10.4 billion, suggesting demand has not yet been significantly destroyed.
Airfare inflation is likely just getting started.
