Wildcat Will Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Is the economy doing good? Are things headed in the right direction? " If you want a dramatic one-word answer, the answer is yes,” said Justin Wolfers, an economist at the University of Michigan. “Unemployment’s at a 50-year low, that’s the standard metric for thinking about how the economy is performing,” he said. “Job growth is continuing, so it’s not only good, it’s getting better, and it’s getting better at a really rapid rate. In 2022, we added the second-most jobs in recorded history, all the way back to 1939.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The economy for the wealthy maybe just fine but for people making less than 60k this economy is crippling. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueliner Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 I’m doing just fine even though my net worth has gone down significantly since the demented shitbag and his crew started calling shots to intentionally dismantle America. I’ll survive, no question. Because I’m “wealthy”. However, MANY Americans are not doing so hot. One does not have to look very far to see the destructive effects of the last 2 years of Biden-American policy. This is THE worst America that I’ve lived in since Carter’s regime. There’s no close second. It was Geri g better year after year, then all of a sudden…this. Absolute garbage. This shit make Obama look like an actual America-first POTUS. Carry on. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And interest rates are NOT supply and demand. They are effectively controlled by the Fed. What a sad bullshitter you are. O.k. Fixed. The annual inflation rate for the United States is 6.4% for the 12 months ended January 2023 after rising 6.5% previously, according to U.S. Labor Department data published Feb. 14. The next inflation update is scheduled for release on March 14 at 8:30 a.m. ET Most of the recent data has been encouraging. After hitting a four-decade high last summer, inflation has come down a good bit. It's still higher than the Fed would like, but it's moving in the right direction. Wage gains have also cooled off despite the tight job market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
