NEW: Ever feel like everything takes longer, costs more, and leaves you more frustrated than it should? That’s not a coincidence. We call it the Annoyance Economy, and it costs American families $165 billion a year in wasted time and money. 👇 groundworkcollaborative.org/work/taking-on…

🚨 Total factor productivity grew just 0.8% in 2025, down from 1.5% in 2024. Notable tidbit: In 2024, the 1.6-percent growth in the contribution of intellectual property products accounted for more than half of the 2.7-percent capital input growth. Equipment’s contribution, however, has declined since 2019.

Data centers, IOUs, and big tech companies are all viewed less favorably than Congress. But "tech companies" (without the "big") are viewed favorably, as are "public utility companies" (as opposed to "IOUs"). Also, people hate crypto. 3/

Two-thirds of voters say their electric bill has gone up. Utility companies get the brunt of the blame, with data centers and government red tape tied for a close second. 2/

US WHOLESALE INFLATION SPIKES MORE THAN EXPECTED US producer prices rose 0.7% in February, above forecasts, with core wholesale inflation up 0.5%. The increase reflects higher costs for goods and services, even as consumer inflation had recently eased before rising energy prices tied to the Iran war.

This new report from @TCFdotorg and @BorrowerJustice isn't only about cost of living in America. It's about an economy where our leaders think they only the top 10% need to thrive in order to keep the economy strong. Everyone else becomes fodder for big bank profit margins
The Century Foundation@TCFdotorg

NEW 📺: This morning, we released a new report with @BorrowerJustice on the shocking amount of credit card debt American families have incurred just trying to make ends meet and the way interest rates are lining the pockets of credit card bankers. More from @GMA 🔽

Trump promised no more wars & lower prices at home. In just a week, gas prices jumped 50+ cents per gallon. Oil is near $100 a barrel. And 87% of voters are concerned the Iran war is making costs worse — because it is. “If they rise, they rise.” Trump now says. 🙃 @AlexSJacquez breaks down what's really happening at the pump. ibtimes.com/iran-war-raisi…

Our @ENPancotti joined @NewYorkStateAG & NY state lawmakers to unveil new legislation that would ban surveillance pricing & electronic shelf labels in NY. At a time when New Yorkers' pocketbooks are being squeezed at every turn, the last thing they need is Big Tech supercharging the ability of wealthy corporations to jack up prices even further.
