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…

On @MSNOWNews, @AlexSJacquez warns the oil price spike from Trump’s war with Iran will ripple through the economy — causing gas prices, airfare, and food costs to rise at a time when job losses and slowing growth are already raising recession fears.

Trump’s war in Iran = serious pain at the pump for American families. And this is just the beginning. Trump’s response to skyrocketing prices? “If they rise, they rise.”
Patrick De Haan@GasBuddyGuy

The national average price of gasoline stands at $3.93/gal, now up 99c/gal from a month ago, with diesel at $5.16/gal, up $1.47/gal from a month ago. Combining spending on gasoline and diesel, Americans are paying ~$575 million more every day compared to a month ago.

Walmart shoppers: some changes are coming to how Walmart sets their prices. And it's not great.

The Fed held rates steady – because it has no good options. 🥾92,000 jobs lost in February 📉 GDP revised down 50% 🚀 Inflation running above target And Trump's war in Iran hasn't even fully hit supply chains yet. @AlexSJacquez calls it what it is: economic mismanagement.

🚨 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 🔽
