     If we had real economic statistics and not Fed smoke and mirrors, it'd be plain to see America has been in a recession for a while now.

     @synapsid I’d go even further and argue there’s been no real economic growth since the dot com bust, just constant asset inflation

     @professionalbigot69 @synapsid something like 60-65% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, including a lot of people making low six figures. There’s a reason you never hear the phrase “standard of living“ anymore

     @DW2 @synapsid almost all "economic growth" has been in the financial sector since the early 80s

     @deprecated_ii @synapsid @DW2 If the number of manufacturing, agricultural, evergreen resource harvesting, and R&D jobs in a country goes down, the economy isn’t growing, it’s a bunch of financiers and middlemen telling lies about it growing.

     @deprecated_ii @DW2 @synapsid Pretty much, yeah. The era of essentially unlimited credit extension began under Reagan, and Reagan's administration stopped enforcing Glass-Steagall 20 years before it was actually rescinded by law.
