My wife and I have Social Security, and I have a union pension. The annuity is a union invested one and pretty conservative, as I said.

The annuity usually breaks at about 7% to 8%, but in the last two Biden years skyrocketed to over 20%.

Trump took a solid national economy, the envy of the world, and drove it into the tank with tariffs. Tariffs may have been a good idea 35 years ago to keep American manufacturing jobs in the US, but now the time has passed. Taking into consideration the spectacular advancement in technology and other factors, it's too late. We do not have the trained workforce, facilities or people who want those jobs. For Christ's sake, we can't even get workers who want to come to the office.
