The CBO understates what will really happen. Poor track record of projections.
I’m a consultant. I do projects for major companies so I’m in contact with them and with headhunters all the time. I’ve been telling everybody that the Great Recession only started to get better about 3 years ago after about 7 awful years. It started picking up noticeably about 6 months ago. I’ve been saying it to anybody who would listen. I have something now I have not had in 10 years. Leverage. Instead of just being thankful to get gigs, I can now choose from different options and squeeze more out of companies to take projects. My income has gone up about 20% in the last year after being stagnant for several years.
I give the credit to the Donald.
Bait and switch. The headlines says it’s a done deal, while the article admits it’s only a projection. Meh.
