>Inflation is 'down'
>Meanwhile everything is expensive as fuck still
It's clearly not down, did trump actually think lying about the numbers would work here?

>>1524227
Take you meds liggy piggy haha retard

>>1524227
Trump is just repeating what his yes men lackeys told him. He unironically believes it. He doesn't ever go shopping himself so he has no idea what things cost.

>>1524227
>>1524232
Look, inflation is down. What else do you libs want?
Corporations to lower their prices from their inflated highs?
Fuck you, why are you communists who hate businesses? They just got billions of dollars double dipping off of Trumps tariffs, and they'll take whatever else they want.

If libs don't fall in line and start sucking corporate dick like MIGA are, the beatings will continue

>>1524227
It’s like his election fraud schizoramble from yesterday. If he says it then it must be true

>>1524227
>It's clearly not down, did trump actually think lying about the numbers would work here?

Agreed. Inflation is not down. Shit is more expensive than ever.

>>1524263
Inflation actually is dropping, the problem is that the government does not set sales policy for private corporations because that would be communism. There's absolutely no legal compulsion for companies to sell things at prices people can afford, only a monetary one, and most companies are sustained by shareholders and investment, not by sales.

>>1524266
No, the problem is we WANT inflation, we've been fucking brainwashed into thinking it's bad. We just also want wages to rise in proportion to inflation. That's what a healthy economy looks like. Inflation doesn't mean much to you or me in the scheme of things. Inflation is crippling to billionaires. And it's SUPPOSED to be. It's supposed to be what keeps them from sitting on their generational wealth, if they want to stay rich they have to spend money and invest to keep making money to keep up with inflation.

Another problem is we shouldn't be waiting for the government. Unions literally had to fight against the military for weekends, look that shit up. If we want the robber barons to give us rights, we have to take them. A fair wage for a fair day's work is something we negotiated by making them understand that the alternative is we break into their homes, drag them into the streets, and beat them to death in front of their families.

Not condoning political violence, but I think we'd do well to remind them that's on the table, and if they don't want us to escalate we need some basic human rights.

>Despite a booming stock market and improving inflation numbers
Oh, gee, rich people's assets are appreciating in value! Trump specifically did a pump-and-dump with the stock market and bought the dip, so he's making more money than ever! Why the fuck are poor people so dirty and hangry? What's wrong with them?/s

Fuck you.

>>1524224
>the country was just emerging from the pandemic-era inflation
There was no deflation, so no. "Emergence from inflation" by any other means is not a thing. This "steady inflation" narrative is beyond stale.

>>1524266
>Inflation actually is dropping,
Clearly not given prices are still outrageously high. Just using republican logic

but the price of gas is lower than it was a month ago!

>>1524271
He ran on that. In 2015-16 he bragged about making money on the 2008 downturn. He is exactly what he has always been and no one on earth should be shocked by anything he says or does.

>>1524270
Wages are never going to rise at all, much less in proportion to inflation. The only way you're ever going to get a wage increase beyond the absolute minimum required by Federal law is if large portions of the labor economy are suddenly removed, thus forcing the labor market to pay above minimum rates in competition for the remaining labor. This would require mass deportations, plague, war, or some other combination of events that removes millions of unemployed or underemployed people from the nation, and no, I don't mean the piddly 'mass deportations' that ICE has been managing, but rather, hundreds of millions of people being loaded onto trains and hauled down to Mexico FEMA Camp style. Since that hasn't happened, you're not going to be seeing any wage increase, because corporate has plenty of people willing to accept the lower wage over no wage at all.

>Unions had to fight....
Unions are immaterial to the American working experience now. Only 8% of Americans still have a union for their jobs, and most major employers these days would rather shut down locations entirely rather than allow workers to unionize. See recent cases with Starbucks, Amazon, Carvana, Uber, Doordash and so on. Its not the government you need to remind of human rights, either. Its the people who own private businesses. The government needs you to pay your taxes in order to continue to exist, they have a fundamental incentive to keep the country working. Corporate can just fuck off to another country and wait for any disaster to blow over, its literally not their problem when the country falls apart, and when things stabilize they can come back in and buy up assets for cents on the dollar. Business owners directly profit from upheaval in any nation.

>>1524305
This does not work as we saw during the trump virus pandemic which should have been a worker's market because everyone was holding out for better working for shit pay and benefits because they were given NEET bux to stay at home for a few months.
What did employers do? They refused to hire anyone and just forced more work on their existing employees and tanks any issues until people were forced to come back.
The real core issue is copro greed and keeping workers down at all costs.

As for unions, you need to repeal all Right to Work (For Less) laws, if you want to see them even have a chance to recover.

>>1524308
Repealing the laws doesn't help if the immigrant labor is still here to take the job, Anon. Even without those laws, they'll simply work under the table for the same rates. They have to be removed from the country entirely or killed in a plague or war. The bottom of the labor market, the poorest cadre in the country, has to be made up of people who refuse to work for less than a living wage, and that's not going to happen as long as we have any immigrant labor here from nations where half of minimum wage is still more than they'd make back home. You literally have no choice but to remove the immigrants if you want to see any change in the standard of employment.

>>1524224
Economic outlook will not matter and will not be reported on after the mid term elections.

>>1524311
According to whom?

>>1524313
No, he's right. Its just being used as a convenient wedge issue for the midterms. Media doesn't report on issues that aren't politically useful or convenient in some way. They're not interested in fixing problems, they report what they're told to report and no more. Once the midterms are over they'll go back to reporting on whatever the flavor of the day is instead because the economic issue is no longer relevant to what the political establishment wants to do.

>>1524313
Everyone. Based on history.
Is anyone truly foolish enough to believe Democrats are better for the economy?

>>1524319
>Is anyone truly foolish enough to believe Democrats are better for the economy?
Everyone. Based on history.
Why would anyone think Republicunts are good for the economy? All they do is give money to billionaires, crash the economy, and start unnecessary wars

>>1524322
Why would anyone think Democruds are good for the economy? All they do is give money to billionaires, crash the economy, and cave into foreign extortion scammers.

>>1524323
Why would you describe the GOP's economic policies while talking about Democrats?

>>1524324
its what .14 cents gets you through the shills LLM

>>1524324
Do you even know what Democrat economic policies are?
You probably think you do, you're likely wrong if you're stupid enough to believe there's any economic value to election Democrats.

>The only way to increase wages would be deport millions of people. Increasing a minimum wage federally wouldn't work, wages going up is impossible, math hurts my waterhead. Holding companies that hire workers illegally accountable wouldn't work. I'm a fucking moron.
>we all have weekends and other concessions unions specifically fought and bled for, so clearly unions are irrelevant to most people. After all, only the 8% of people in unions have weekends! Billionaires won't let us unionize, so that's not allowed, I'm such a fucking moron.
>>1524310

>artificially raising the cost of running a business
Hey remember when Drumpf massively raised the cost of running a business by forcing them to pay 30% or more in illegal taxes on all their goods and materials which led to a bunch of layoffs, small business bankruptcies, and higher prices on everything?

>>1524432
>Mm-mmpgh I'm going to pretend there's no possible solution, we couldn't give small businesses a tax credit to offset the cost. I'm definitely not literally talking to a small business owner who would be fine eating the cost if corporations and tech billionaires paid their fair share.
>Mmm-mm-mmph! My plan is better. Deporting millions of people would improve the economy by reducing, competion for jobs, which makes sense if you don't ask which jobs, man I'm a fuckwit.
>Mmm-mmmpgh it's somehow a greater violation of personal freedom to make sure the most wealthy people in the world pay their fair share, than it is to allow them to exploit workers who literally cannot live on the wages they make, to the point that onboarding in some companies involve teaching you how to apply for snap benefits.
It's hard to hear you with all that billionaire cock in your mouth, could you kindly shoot yourself in the temple?

>>1524439
NTA, but you need to understand something fren. No political or fiduciary policy is going to get the rich to share their money, nor increase the pay that labor gets. The only thing that's going to do that is a major institutional collapse and several centuries of starvation, disease and war, the bust in the boom-and-bust cycle. Rich people don't share money and power and they're not going to magically start now no matter what laws you pass.

The only thing we can do to better our country is elect anyone we can find who will get rid of the browns. It won't fix wages and it won't bring the jobs back, but it does make the nation less brown which is an objective good. Its not perfect but its what we've got. The rest of it is just a pipe dream, made up by people who legitimately think you can force people with all the money and power in the world, the most that anyone has ever had in all of human history, to do things that fly in the face of basic human nature. Its just not going to fucking happen, dude.

>elect anyone
>get rid of the browns
>infinite H1Bs
You elected that which allowed this to happen. You voted for this.

Hi, esl shill 1524446.

>>1524448
>You elected that which allowed this to happen
I wasn't old enough to elect anyone when Clinton got into office, you absolute faggot, I was a child. Everything else regarding offshoring and onshoring is downstream of NAFTA.

>Its just a pipe dream of yours
Not really. We've had more browns leaving of their own free will than coming in for the last two years. They no longer trust that they'll be safe here, plus the costs of staying are rapidly coming up to eclipse the money they make by staying. They'll leave on their own, we just need to make it increasingly unpleasant to be brown in America.

>Hi esl shill
Its ESL Shill, you absolute troglodyte. If you're going to spam this absolute schlock in every single thread at least fucking do it right. ESL is capitalized because its an acronym. E.S.L. English as a Second Language. The 'Shill' is also capitalized because you're using it as a name, which becomes a proper noun in that context, and proper nouns are capitalized. If you're going to speak a civilized tongue speak it correctly, Paco.

>H1Bs from India after early 2025

1524454 is a projecting troglodyte with a lack of reading comprehension as well as being an esl shill that's seething.

>>1524456
>Implying Trump invented the H1B visa
Anon, we've had those for decades. Do a little research before you open your faggot mouth. The H1 visa system was instituted in 1952, when congress overturned a presidential veto to make it happen, and then reaffirmed in the 1990s with what we now know as the H1A and H1B visa systems. Trump was not a politician when the systems you're complaining about existed - when the system was first put in, Trump wasn't even born yet. And no, by 'browns', we don't generally mean Indians, although yes, Indians are browns - we mean Mexicans and other Central and South Americans. Its the hispanics that need to go, first and foremost.

If you want to make this argument without looking retarded... well, that's impossible for you, racist faggot, but if you want to make this argument while looking less retarded, you should look for people who use words that are weird in context and unnatural speaking flows. Pointing to a one letter misspelling like 90% of the people who use that term reeks of desperation. Pointing to a fucking lack of capitalization on an acronym no one else capitalizes is next level retardation though, well done.

Then I realized, if this is an esl shill from india everything makes sense.

It’s almost like the stock market doesn’t actually reflect the health of a countries economy but how much rich people have stolen from everyone else.
