By every measure, Biden's economy is better than Trump's save for inflation, but inflation was a global problem, not a US one and wage growth over the last 4 years has more than made up for inflation. And wage growth has been highest among low wage workers who saw raises in excess of inflation even during the worst of it.

These are the greatest jobs numbers we've ever seen. Real wages are higher now than before Covid. GDP is fantastic. The stock marketa are hitting records. Trade is going well. More people have health care. This is a very good economy.

Its age old now, they will drive the prices up when a democrat is in office so the other side will blame the democrat president. Hasn't anyone noticed how they play? Same with gas. Its the CEOs of these companies. They want their taxes cut, they want buybacks and etc but no one pays attention to how they play us. Its time we let them know we know what they are doing.
We need to stop major companies from owning so many companies. Like I read someone said. Make it where they can only own several companies. Something needs to be done.

Economy could be a lot better.....
When prices are not gouged,
When home ownership is not driven up. Families now can not afford a home.
