American voters like today’s economy so much that the percentage who say it is “excellent” or “good” represents 71 percent. That’s the highest total number in almost 18 years, according to a Quinnipiac University National poll issued on Tuesday.



Majority state they are better off financially than they were in 2016

There are a handful of people worse off. People in sectors experiencing short term pain with the trade war, big city hipsters who lost some of their excess deductions.

good news for today but lets see how our kids handle the deficit in a few years.
sleight of hand by trump to knowingly mislead his base.
the deficit cannot be sustained even though the economy looks good today.

Do it tomorrow after today’s stock market bloodbath, and yesterday’s photo of Trump’s handwritten “No Achomlishments” writing. Only the best words.

revenue has increased at about the same rate pre tax cut as post tax cut.... spending is the cause of the deficit

Quick question. Is the stock market in a better or worse place than it was when he took office?

Personally, I just see everything on sale today.

I am in a specialized field and haven't found a job that would pay enough for me to relocate in almost a year. There are many jobs available for younger engineers with some experience, and some open for experienced engineers, but only with exactly the type of experience they want.

Have done 1099 work remotely, have alternate sources of income, etc., but yeah. An old oilfield town just up the road looks like it did in the 80's after the bust. There are certainly some losers in this economy.

Spending is always the problem and we cant tax ourselves out of it. Need a 20% cut and a serious congress/senate to sit down and figure it out and then freeze it for three years.
