Tip of the iceberg. Small businesses are barely alive as well. I know a lot that I talk with that are just hanging on.
Record profits. Millions and millions and millions to executives.
Trump went wild when he took over, he cut funding to government departments and programs, enacted tariffs that haven’t been raised this high since 1933 I think, and funded ICE and built concentration camps to go after immigrants. Just doing 1 of those things would have hurt the economy but he did all 3 and it will cause misery.
I’ve been trying to find a job for 6 months thanks to the USAID cuts
Just like his casinos, he’s running him US into the ground
I for one am getting ready for those sweet sweet iPhone assembly jobs.
why is this shit upvoted?
Christian conservative hypocrites sure know how to pick em
The market is booming though
We already knew this.
These stories happen in good economies as well. No matter the state of the economy, except in probably the worst case where governments prop up failing businesses, there are going to be businesses that are struggling.
What matters is whether or not there are businesses that are also growing to absorb the blow and make good use of the freed up labor and capital.
Bearish stories tend to be far more newsworthy than bullish stories, so you can’t reliably use the ratio of news stories to form a conclusion. Just looking at the raw employment stats would be a far more meaningful endeavor.
