Amazing.  The things he listed are basically what the Dems have been ignoring for the past four years, in favour of DEI, woke, inclusivity, or whatever you want to call it.  It's turned the US into a shadow of its former self, and I really hope that Trump can fix it.

The reality is that inflation had been tamed, the economy was stronger and getting stronger and interest rates were decreasing.

If  Americans are expecting an economic miracle, they are in for a rude awakening.

The majority of Americans  do not invest in the Stock market and will not share in the profits. They don't even benefit from the increased returns pension and retirement funds  receive since many are living paycheck to paycheck. What matters to them is the cost of rent, of housing or medical care, of food, of transportation  etc.

Over half of American households have a 401k, IRA or similar retirement plan.

 The poor will always remain poor.  Most have no incentive to work or better their lives.

 

Personal choice.  Not the government’s responsibility directly.  Most local governments have programs to help.  Those that take advantage and apply themselves succeed.  Others can’t be bothered trying or working for “the man”.

 

Try offering a homeless person holding a sign work.   Vast majority don’t want work.  Only a handout. It’s become a lifestyle choice for many.

 

In America.

What is a "household"?

Why not be more accurate;    Among working-age individuals (ages 15 to 64), the most common type of retirement accounts in 2020 were 401(k)-style accounts (34.6%). About 18% of working-age individuals had an IRA or Keogh account, and 13.5% had a defined-benefit or cash balance plan. 

 

As you can see, the Median Value in those retirement funds is not very much. Even if there are large increases in the returns, the reality is that there will be  chump change to play with. 

 

 

The have nots will remain have nots. people like me  who are financially well off, will do much better.

They clearly want fascism.
