The best thing Trump did for the economy was to not screw it up. Before Covid, the economy was in great shape. Everyone was predicting a recession, which never came even well after the inverted yield curve…well the recession came because of Covid but no sane person blames that on Trump.Originally posted by Maximus View Post
The only thing the GOP cares about is attacking the lgbt and immigrants and other culture wars. They didn't try anything actually good economically under Trump."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

So all that new money he printed isn't partially to blame? He had plans to continue sending the same checks Biden did. I remember him promising to send the same amount during that Georgia special election that Biden ended up sending.Originally posted by Moliere View Post

He wasn't printing money like Biden until the pandemic hit and the PPP program and other stimulus were all bipartisan in a way we hadn't seen in a long time. They were deemed necessary at the time so any equivalence being made between PPP and the Biden stimulus is futile. Trump was trying to buy votes just like Biden but that was well after the pandemic and the global financial recession that came with it.Originally posted by BigPiney View Post

The corporate tax cuts to bring US tax rates down to the range of most countries in the world and encourage companies to relocate back to the US was a very good thing. Prior to that the rates were among the highest in the world."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Yep, it helped fix the repatriation problem. The fact the democrats haven’t been able to increase the rate even after controlling congress and the presidency speaks to its popularity.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostThe corporate tax cuts to bring US tax rates down to the range of most countries in the world and encourage companies to relocate back to the US was a very good thing.

Pissing on the inflation giant bonfire with another 0.75 rate increase... It starting to smell a lot like a recession around here.

Inflation for October trends in the right direction...now at 7.7%. The markets are going to have a good day or at least a good morning."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

The Biden economy... almost 2/3rds of Americans living paycheck-to-paycheck:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-paycheck.htmlBreadline USA: Eight million Americans earning more than $100,000-a-year are living paycheck-to-paycheck, disturbing study reveals, as inflation continues to decimate earnings- Almost two thirds of Americans now say they are living paycheck-to-paycheck
- Among them are almost 5pc of whom earn over $100k
- The number of high earners saying they are struggling rose 9pc in the last year
I don't believe it. Good thing the IRS is hiring all these new agents to shake all these liars down and find where they are hiding their income."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

OPEC+ cuts production to raise prices...
But Joe can fix this, right?
