Oh yea the famous don’t believe your lying eyes believe what the media is saying. Grocery prices dropping by 4 cents when they are up over 20 bucks isn’t something to brag about. This is the same administration that bragged July 4th prices were down like 16cents one year then the next year the price was &10 more,

Ron DeSantis and Chris Christie Call Out Trump for Adding to Federal Debt​

"He owes it to you to defend his record where they added $7.8 trillion to the debt that set the stage for the inflation that we have."​

The country’s current “inflationary spiral” can also be traced back to COVID-19, Maher said, describing the trillions of dollars the government issued throughout the pandemic. This, he noted, should not be pinned on President Joe Biden, but his predecessor, former President Donald Trump.

“We’re going to bring back Trump?” he asked. “The guy who ignored COVID like it was the dinner check? Talk about not learning anything.”

• 55% believe the economy is shrinking, and 56% think the US is experiencing a recession, though the broadest measure of the economy, gross domestic product (GDP), has been growing.
• 49% believe the S&P 500 stock market index is down for the year, though the index went up about 24% in 2023 and is up more than 12% this year.
• 49% believe that unemployment is at a 50-year high, though the unemployment rate has been under 4%, a near 50-year low.

Its puzzling but perhaps it proves the powerr of right wing misinformation.It also illustrates
the stupidity of many American voters. Perhaps if they paid more attention to the economy and less to banning books and stringing up trannys they might have more informed opinions.

Anyway it looks like many of them are about to make an act of nationa lself harm.

Tommy, you being a socialist and socially educated living under the yoke of socialism the ^above^ must look pretty darn good to you, but America is a capitalist country that is best described as the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and the above scenario you describe just isn't where most America thinks it should be.

I think our capitalist engine could spit-out better numbers than that on its worst day and all Americans know we can do better since our competition is bogged down in social over spending and tax through the teeth economies...i.e. we are probably doing even better than the figment you provided but so what? we always are.

While europe is deciding how best to move away from bicycle and moped transportation they can't afford, and replace it with parttime solar energy and a return to windmills America will continue to try and get by with swimming pools, ice machines and air conditioning in our homes and cars in the summer while trying to figure out why our homes are so dang hot in the winter while trying to keep the temp down to a comfortable 72 degrees in December, January and February.
