“The economy” only refers to the rich and their wealth inside the castle, not at all to you or I sitting in the mud.
The economy could be absolutely booming and simultaneously the majority of the working class could be unemployed/underpaid/in debt/starving/etc. Which is exactly what is going on right now.
Yeah. I wonder if he knows how much smaller the group of people that see themselves “in the economy” is.
They are the people that will pay him so he might not notice or care but the people being helped by a stagnant ok economy doing business as usual is getting smaller by the year.
Wait till all the AI robits take er jerbs. The only thing that may make that stop is the fact that all the consumers will have starved to death. But, they will find some way to plug that gap and keep going.
“The economy” these days is just a nickname for the rich man’s game - the stocks, shares, and speculation that have nothing to do with the average person’s lived experience.
The average person could be near-destitute, but because the rich man’s numbers are going up, tHe EcOnOmY iS dOiNg JuSt FiNe!
We got tax breaks for the rich and a handout to business owners while the rest of us got a couple extra paychecks for all that time things were shut down. This was all because we had our pandemic response plan killed by Trump because Obama had put it together. We also didn’t bother taking a hard stance on border crossings like New Zealand did early in the pandemic even in easy areas to do it like Hawaii.
The Covid pandemic response was 100% on Trump and his buddies.
Biden told me the economy is doing super duper well right now

At least it’s not completely shut down like it was under your boy Trump’s presidency.
shoves guy over the line
“He’s an evil foreign invader! Get him, gang!”
That’s like the difference between getting two slices of shit in your shit-sandwich or just getting one.

I was in Finance at the time of the 2008 Crash and keenly watched the response to it from around the World, including Barack Obama.
If you think the handouts for the rich started with Trump, I have a bridge to sell you.
