The [DS]/Establishment has now been shown that they do not hold all the power. They are now making concessions to the patriots.

(CAPEIC) to exploit the Amu Darya oil field in northern Afghanistan. Delawar said at the signing ceremony that CPEIC’s project to extract oil from the 4500-square-kilometer region covered by the contract will create 3,000 jobs for Afghans. Delawar said the Chinese company agreed to process the oil in Afghanistan instead of shipping it overseas for refining. The Taliban regime is set to receive 20 percent of the revenue from the project at the outset, scaling up to 75 percent at an unspecified point in the future.

Families are most concerned about the prices of basic items, such as food, energy, fuel, and mortgage or rent costs, KPMG said. A third of consumers plan to buy fewer items and resort more to own-brand and value products in 2023. The most common areas for saving on discretionary spending were listed as eating out (46%), followed by clothing (42%), and takeaways (42%).

Here too we find something striking: the total number of full-time jobs has declined by 288K in the past ten months, which however has been more than offset by the 886K increase in part-time jobs. This is Obama’s horrid economy all over again. Massive spending. Full-time job losses. Part-time job increases due to people needing the income to stay afloat. Massive inflation and people’s wages decreasing by the day.
