It's Election Day here in Iowa and, yes, I did vote. We kick things off today with a report about open jobs in the U.S. The headline most outlets had was that "Job Openings Drop to the Lowest Level Since 2021". Sounds bad...right?

If you are old enough you might remember the 1974 program by the Ford Administration known as WIN or Whip Inflation Now.
