Too bad our resident MAGAMoron is so full of hate for Biden, he’ll never admit to this incredible economic accomplishment.
Chicket, you accuse others of "hate" because you're so full of it yourself that to you hate probably seems normal. You don't know me, so you have no idea what I think about Biden.

That said, to deny that some areas of the economy are performing well would be stupid. For Tarlov to credit Biden for those areas' solid economic activity - and further to call the economy as a whole "thriving" - is a gross exaggeration.

For example, if the economy as a whole is "thriving", why is the Fed still saying they expect 2 additional interest rate hikes this year? If the economy is thriving, what's with all the layoffs that have happened in 2023, which are not just limited to the tech industry. In fact, some economists did suggest that early 2023 would be growth-oriented but followed by a significant decline.

Unlike you, Chickie, I don't limit myself to ingesting the somewhat biased opinions from left-oriented journalists. If you want to do that, fine. I hope it works out for you.

In the meantime, our family will continue, as always, to be careful with our expenditures and postpose any large non-essential spending. Because unlike you and Ms. Tarlov, I don't see much of a consensus out there at all that the economy overall is "thriving".

In fact, most of the opinions I see are all over the place. There are always going to be economic forecasters who seek attention by predicting doom and gloom. I tend to take notice when I see what I'm seeing right now: there's not much consensus from anyone on what the economy is going to look like in the near future.
