I mean, the economy has been doing great if you look at a purely wall-street perspective. The problem is, that doesn’t translate into shit for the average person. Corporate/stock profits != individual financial health.
Objectively the health of the US economy is pretty great now. All the B2B indicators are green, Velocity of Money finally bounced back, etc.
Unfortunately, the health of the economy is divorced from the health of the US laborer… but for those that own business, they are pleased.
(I always thought how funny it would be if they all took the republican advice of “pull up your boot straps and start a small business”. The labor force would evaporate, and it would all be small independent contractors that will take you to small claims if they need to…)
