Oh a syndicated project, that's got to be trust worthy right?

The Truth about the Trump economy needs no narrative. Y'all'sis argument is weak and falls apart time and time again, and still you pick back up where it failed every single time.

It is what it is.

The truth about the economy is that it is working best for people who work. The lowest paid 50% of the working class saw their wages rise an average of 47% in the last five years. That’s what’s driving our economic expansion: the under classes have more money to spend. The Ryan tax cut bill put $2000 child tax credits in play in addition to earned income credits. This has helped working families with kids quite a bit, lifting many out of abject poverty into the lower middle class. This is incredibly important because our economy needs CONSUMERS to operate. We need more people to be economically engaged both in working AND in buying things for a stable robust economy. As wages rise without inflation, we are seeing exactly that: an economy which refuses to be bowed or bullied by politicians and pundits, economists or oligarchs. It’s a resilient product of millions of Americans at work, bettering their lives one paycheck at a time.

The WORLD needs the American consumer to spend.

Increasing the disposable income of America's poor and middle classes should be the top economic concern of everybody in the World, if out of nothing but pure self-interest.
