Well crap this isn't good.

Inflation cooled in January, offering some relief for consumers

A decline in the rate of price increases is good news for Americans who have grappled for years with rising costs of living.

Any and all jokes about rednecks, the south, or Bama will be replied to with that tweet until Canada can overtake Alabama.

Sounds like the same way you go bankrupt: slowly, then suddenly.

A lot of industry has moved to Alabama. It’s also a lot nicer than most people would expect. It has some sketch areas, but it has plenty of upscale areas too. I’d rather live there than Canada. I’m yet to see part of Canada I’d want to live in.

Don’t you live in like Ohio? Or Indiana? Absolute hellscapes (minus South Bend).

It wasn’t bad. Weather always sucked. I remember all the junkies doing drugs in the streets worse than anywhere else I’ve ever seen.

My town is always in those best place to live lists and a bubble from reality. If Alabama beats Canada, we would smoke Canada.

I know Canada got caught cheating at curling, lost at mens and women's hockey, is now poorer than Alabama- but at least they will likely be a cricket powerhouse soon!
