Was on the I 10 today and saw it as well . Gotta love it ! <| sep |> By being ordinary a person becomes so . <| sep |> Were you already certified ? <| sep |> Do you pronounce it like house ? <| sep |> For sure Vikavolt . design is on point . Everyone says its slower then it should be . but so is every other pokemon is slow too . so really it evens out . <| sep |> Who fucking cares ? <| sep |> And we are out of the AFF Suzuki cup <| sep |> consumer spending demand is the basis of a free market economyUgh , ok , I ' m going to bite . Simply put , you can ' t take number goes up logic outside of its context . Now , if salaries went up or prices went down , then this number would fit into a larger narrative of prosperity . But , consumer demand seems to be going up despite salaries and prices remaining largely stable . Which leaves the question What is happening to the average Briton to make him buy more ? It might be the pound getting weaker making people want to use their lessvaluable savings quicker . It might be that consumer confidence in the economy might be picking up , but confidence doesn ' t mean it ' s actually happening , especially since most organizations are saying salaries will remain stagnant . So this statistic sort of stands in the middle of no good foundation . And while spurring consumer demand is good , it ' s signalling nothing in particular at best , and at worst a troubling public disconnect with reality . Now you might say The peoples opinion matters more than some experts . Which is , you know , fine by me . Now please trigger article 50 . edit Can ' t find consumer spending numbers on the ONS site , so I can ' t actually go into detail on anything . edit 2 I found the GDP statistics that they ' re using for their graph and there are . some discrepancies . Now I can ' t actually believe they would blatantly change Gross Fixed Capital Formation numbers , so I ' ll just put a link and see if someone with more knowledge can confirm that the discrepancy is there Figure 9 .
