Steve Moore, how you doing?

I'm doing just fine.

Mark, I don't know the country is doing so well.

You know, we have the new number that came out this morning on how much the producer prices

have gone up with yesterday.

We had the record high consumer price index and we got a really bad number this

morning on producer prices up more than 11%.

Those are abysmal numbers.

And by the way, if the producer prices go up, those are the prices that businesses pay, you

happen, even if the business goes bankrupt,

or they have to raise their prices to consumers.

So it's pretty ugly out there right now, frankly, and I don't see any smart policies

coming out of Washington to fix this.
