Popular Post Lacessit Posted February 4 Popular Post Share Posted February 4 2 hours ago, uttradit said: Record high debt, 2 wars, uncontrolled border. His advisers must be terrible. The next crash is likely to be very bad due to this Biden character. Unemployment less than 4%, GDP up after Trump gutted it in 2020. Stock market all-time high. The border problem is caused by Republicans blocking any initiatives, on Trump instructions. Trump doesn't have any advisers. He's a one-man band, way out of tune. You'd prefer the Trump solution for Ukraine? Walk away, and kiss Putin's @ss? 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's in line with Wall Street estimates, which have penciled in continued growth in both GDP and real wages for the rest of the year. Stunning stat: 77% of Americans are happy with where they're living — including renters, who have seen their housing costs surge over the last few years and are far more likely than homeowners to describe their financial situation as poor. https://www.axios.com/2024/01/17/americans-are-actually-pretty-happy-with-their-finances You see the disconnect there? When asked about their personal prospects, which clearly they have a detailed knowledge of, they're optimistic. When asked their opinion about the economy as a whole, pessimistic. In other words most Americans think they're going to do better, but at the same time the economy is going to do worse. Me, I'll go with a diagnositc of with what they know best: their own personal financial situation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvs Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 1 hour ago, johnnybangkok said: I'm not sure where you are getting your 10 million figure from but Illegal immigration has been an issue for every POTUS in the US for many decades now Unauthorized immigrant population in the U.S. | Statista. It is unlikely to be resolved any time soon and it's certainly Biden's Achilles heel but that's only because the GOP are struggling with anything else to criticise and it does of course play well to Trumps more rabid base. Could the US economy really do without the illegals? When the economy is good people will just come to try and make money. Who would do the manual labour on the farms if not for illegals? Illegals would stop coming to the US if everyone wanted to stop them but every one needs them. The only problem is both sides try to spin it so that the other side looks bad but imo every one profits from the illegals. Yes the problem should be solved and it will take time but a wall is not the answer at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
