This is exactly why when Trump touts “Hottest country in the world” & “Golden Age”—No one is falling for it. We are in a prolonged recession right now and the politicians won’t admit it so they don’t tank the market. People are living paycheck to paycheck, can’t afford bills, and can’t find jobs.
It’s not Trumps fault either—It’s just the way our society has transformed since Covid—The 1% have 70% of the wealth and they aren’t going to relinquish it to the middle or lower classes.
It's not wrong. The recession began last year and will probably run thru most of Trump's second term. This is why he is hellbent on bringing manufacturing jobs back home from offshore. This is how he will keep Americans working and counteract the recession. It's better than expanding government jobs.
As far as the stock market is concerned, the recession will not prevent capital from fleeing Europe and coming here. Smart Europeans recognize that the EU fully intends to fight a nuclear war with Russia. Capital is fleeing because of the coming war and because smart investors understand that EU nations will eventually enact capital controls to keep that capital home and funding the war.
The US has the least worst economy in the world right now, and Trump is strengthening it. European capital flees mostly into the DJIA, not the NASDAQ. The Dow will go to unheard of heights because of international capital flows. The closer to war, the greater the flow to America.
Jobs seem to be plentiful here near Raleigh NC, but taxes and other costs are increasing rapidly so people are hurting. That especially applies to seniors. I was in our brand new Publix grocery store this afternoon and quite surprised that at least 75% of the employees were older. There were several that were long past retirement age. Sad to see.
It’s not wrong. Where I live in Florida groceries are still as high and expensive as they were last year. Many also have ‘shrinkflation’, especially paper products. Meat is expensive. Milk is reasonable but diary products, like ice cream, cheese, etc... are not.
Going out to eat is a special event due to cost, even pizza, chicken or hamburgers due to their cost.
Eggs are back to normal providing you buy at Walmart, Sam’s Club or Costco.
Dollar General is always busy and if it is on sale there it’s sold out or hard to get.
Don’t know about Aldi’s I refuse to buy there the food in my area is questionable in quality.
Gas is $ 2.89 if you pay cash but $3.19 if you use credit cards.
Home owners insurance is sky high as is auto insurance. Utilities are high.
