The U.S. economy contracts!
It wasn't just a result of reduced spending. As for the reduced spending , that didn't happen in a vacuum did it? There was a major contributor to cause reduced spending. Perhaps your google degree in economics has lapsed -

Travel Rising Prices, Broken Systems Dim Thailand’s Tourist Charm
I think you misunderstand me... I don't talk about myself I just talk in general.. We went to Malaysia for holiday and the immigration officer was very smiling and welcoming that I did not know what I had to say in fact.. Here in Thailand they just check your passport take a pic and hardly say anything to you. For me 90 days is no problem but i general what is the purpose of doing it?? With a re entry you come back to your house and have to do the 90 day report and address notification.. Why must we start again with the Tdac or former TM 7 card?? I come already 20 years at the immigration office, never smiling, for my 90 days, although i brought several times a box of cookies or cake for them, unfortunatelly it is not allowed anymore and with the grumpy officers I am happy too. And for alcohol I don't have that problem too.. But in general if I go on holiday and I want a beer at 15.00 I can buy it..And here even this website I am often told that it should be better if I leave the country... I don't care that they say it to me, but my opinion is just always general nothing personal, and I think for the better of the country and the people. In my neighbourhood no problems with me always friendly and helpful and I can imagine that in tourists places there are more problems than in the rural area where I live.. But still Thailand have to improve several things and not hold to the conservatism that is now even getting worse, with the idea that all foreigners are unreliable untill proven different. That will bring down the tourist sector, and with less income the people get grumpier and will attrack less customers, and so on... and it goes down. Read how many times there are headlines in the news about what foreigners did wrong or a crackdown, while Thai people are in the majority and do the same and even more, but that is kept out of the news.. Just as 2 weeks a go a group is set up for foreigners with mental health problems.. and than read the news.. why not set up group for Thai with mental health as there many more who need that.. simple example.. the sound pollution all over the country in temples, parties, concerts or shopping malls... Noise is used as torture sometimes, but here is no escape of it...I don't care but just in general, when I speak with the locals here about the past week, there was a 3 day concert at a shopping mall, than 2 days no noise and than 3 days party for monk ordination from Samut Songkram in a temple 1 km away.. People complain, but nobody dare to take action and the police doesn't do anything..But if I would do it believe me it would be a headline -

Another win for Trump (breaking news)
As I understand it, the mineral deposits are in both countries and it's Trump's plan to jointly exploit those resources with Russia. I'm not sure Zelenskyy will have much to say about it when all is said and done. -

So many food item prices continue to increase every few weeks
Believe it or not I have kept a record of grocery spending for two people since 2001 It records monthly spending at Makro, Lotus, Big C, Go Wholesale, Tops and Foodland This snapshot of the last few years is self explanatory, it is just the end of year totals, the detail on my spreadsheet is broken down into months and various shops but no need to show that. 2017 B 149,353 2018 B 160,441 2019 B 147,338 2020 B 160,944 2021 B 158,303 2022 B 152.800 2023 B164,882 2024 B167,684
