Jesus. That’s a fucking huge increase. And 2021 is still a year into the pandemic. What was it in 2019?
40% of Americans are too stupid to appreciate Biden’s long term vision. They should stop complaining and thank him!
If I hear another person say "inflation is going down, actually" I'm going to plant them like a tree
Or "other countries are worse", its insane the bubble these lunatics are in
You might think GDP doesn’t reflect the living standards of the people, that is true, but it matters a lot to the stock market. When GDP goes up (as it does currently), the stock market line goes up.
America is a hyper-financialized country. It has gone so far beyond the industrial capitalism of the mid-20th century, that all that matters now is real estate, stocks and bonds.
For the top 10% who own property, stocks and bonds, Bidenomics is working real well for them. For the rest of the country, student debt repayment and the interest rate hikes are squeezing wealth out of their hands and transferring them to the hands of the top 10%.
But line go up!
Biden’s approval is in the toilets for the entire nation yet it’s the conservatives that are the problem lol
Y’all got any of that booming economy money ??
Where's my $2000 Joe
americans will cope until moral improves
so indefinitely
