Economic Surprise Index Falls To -0.126 As Buying Conditions For Housing Remains Negative For Most Of Biden’s Presidency (US Debt Servicing Costs 12% Of Government Spending)

I saw former President Obama criticizing former President Trump for not passing “transformative” changes. That is, Trump didn’t sign any Obama-like transformative changes (like Obamacare). Truimp did try to slow down the damage done by Obama and his transformative agenda (e.g., open borders, wealth redistritution, green energy) that Biden has attempted to continue.

As we approach the party conventions and Presidential election of 2024, we saw the Economic Surprise Index (ESI) in May decline to -0.126.

Coupled with Biden’s negative buying conditions for housing (higher mortgage rates and soaring house prices), Obama’s Jacobian transformative economic fantasty is on thin ice.

Speaking of higher interest rates, US debt servicing costs currently make up 12% of government spending. Jacobin revolution = Cloward-Piven.

Let’s hope the Obama/Biden Jacobin revolution doesn’t get to this point!

RE servicing the debt.

What percentage of actual government income is it? A lot greater than when compared to spending since so much spending is debt.
