I have never understood the raising of interest rates to slow down inflation. Please explain. It seems to me that the only ones who benefit are those that have cash on hand and that isn't the people who are just getting by. Businesses can't expand and employ more people. Nobody buys houses so there are no furniture or appliance sales. Everything you want to buy, like a house or a car costs more. I still vividly remember the 70's in Canada when a house mortgage was 10% and a car loan was 19%.
Raising interest rates raises the price of everything. When prices go up demand goes down. When demand is down prices go down so inflation lessens.

Considering the huge quantity of U.S. dollars sent to Mexico in Remittances, the people who need that money are receiving far less... not good for them in addition to the inflation here. Also not good for tourism or exports. Amlo should realize this and take action. Opinions?
What do you propose that AMLO should do?

Thanks to the US "sanctions" on Russia, their economy is now doing very well after shifting their markets to China and the Brics nations. If the Brics idea of changing how oil is priced from Petro Dollars to whatever their currency ends up being I think the dollar will fall against every currency, not just the Peso. They hope to unveil a gold backed currency so we shall see.
Russia’s economy is not doing so well and their oil production is diminished by bombings by Ukraine. Brics is nothing more than a concept which hasn’t gotten very far. We’ll have to see if their gold backed currency gets off the ground. Let’s stick to the facts.

I just crossed over 3 days ago. As I went through the detector sounded off. I then pointed to my right hip and said “tengo una protesis “. She then took her wand and applied it all around and to the location of my right hip

It is only harmful when you look at it whether there’s an eclipse or not.

I don’t know why but electronic stuff always get screwed up here. The weather, the altitude, uv light, I don’t know but remotes, radios, microwaves are all affected.

My sister quit her job as a hospice nurse because there was a certain doctor who would rush terminal patients to the hospital as soon as they showed signs of worsening. Everyone knew what his real reasons were.

Each one of us should research which disease are worth spending money on and which to just accept. There are some cancers that have a very low rate of survival no matter what you do. The doctor will tell you otherwise to squeeze money out of you.

He mentioned vit b12 “complex” which means you’re going to get different doses of each ingredient with different brands. Some persons with certain medical conditions have to watch carefully what they’re taking.

Well for sure no one can blame you for being in articulate.

My concerns regarding the medical system is the education and expertise of the the ancillary personnel involved in the procedure and postoperative care. If possible I would rather have the procedure in the US. Don’t let costs be the deciding factors.

I wouldn’t worry too much about El TF. He’s probably sitting back having a good laugh. Let’s just close this up.

With either option you would get an albañil to form an opening in the wall. You wouldn’t need to use a window.

The article states that a lot of water is wasted by leaks in old pipes being used. An investment in infrastructure now will be of huge benefit and might prolong the day of reckoning.

I just found this on another website. Reminded me of someone else posting here:
”
My wife and I recently emigrated from the US to a country where there are a lot of US "expats" and the amount of anti-immigrant sentiment we've heard from them is astonishing. And the irony is completely lost on them.
We were visiting to tie up loose ends before our final move and met one such couple from Boulder, CO. They gave off heavy "we're rich and you should be in awe of that" vibes. We asked why they wanted to leave Boulder and the wife said something along the lines of, "There's just a lot of people moving into Boulder lately and causing all sorts of trouble. You know how brown people are."
In moments like that, I always wish I could come up with a good retort or say something poignant, but my wife and I just looked at each other and walked away.”

He left Colorado because he couldn't shop at a Wal-Mart? I don't know because Boulder didn't have Wal-Mart.
I can't imagine moving to Texas. My Dad used to say "I was born in Texas but when I turned 4 I got smart and moved the family to Kansas."
I got out of Tamaulipas before the narcos got there. I tiptoe when I’m passing through there.
