It was a 0 under Kamala Harris' term so I'm seeing a little improvement

Well, we'll know more about the economy in September. When LSU plays Ole Miss if the cheapest ticket is going for $1,000 then that's a sign of inflation in red states.

6 right now. Anecdotally our son (entering his Sr year of high school) and his friends have jobs right now or summer jobs lining up and our business is up about 13% YoY.

2-3.... Gas and grocery prices ... The job market sucks (have kids looking for jobs). It is really bad.. Would Kamala be better? Hell no, we would be heading to a Marxist hellscape... But still damn bad.

A 3 or 4. It could be worse, but it could be a LOT better.

Not amazing.
Hopefully improves this year.
Anecdotally, this has been a big year for my company in industrial sales, companies are spending more CAPEX this year it seems.

He has a lot of work to do to make amurica great again. The bulk of Americans don’t give a single frick about Iran nor could point it out on a map.
He should refocus on domestic problems (which he should’ve done to begin with).

Everything is expensive. My input costs are rising on the farm and catfish prices stagnant due to low sales in the market. People can’t afford to eat out

Based on the current Debt:GDP Ratio … it’s gotta be a 4

It’s not great but it’s a helluva lot better than the Harris alternative.

4 unless you're including the stock market. Then, I'd put it around an 8 to 9.

One point five years into Reagan's first term the economy was awful.
I see similar trends in today's economy

I think it's a 6/7 now, but I have been watching some doom porn about what's coming in energy markets in the next few months, which would put it at a 2.
