If you made $100,000 in 2020, that same $100,000 is now worth $83,000.
Oh, and those groceries you bought in 2020? They've gone up at least a third in cost, maybe more.
But good news, POLITICO says we're all living in a dream economy thanks to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris but we're just too stupid to understand. Oh sure, many of us are working more than one job and going into insane amounts of credit card debt BUT, this is a dream economy.
More like a nightmare.
Seriously.

Harris is riding a dream economy into the election. It may be too late for voters to notice. https://t.co/52cgjsOk4I

From POLITICO:
“While Harris is performing better than Biden was against Trump on handling the economy … being given some benefit of the doubt as a newer candidate, voters still feel that day-to-day costs are expensive and thus there is a limit to how much improvement this news will bring for her,” said Carly Cooperman, a Democratic pollster who is CEO of Schoen Cooperman Research.
But, she added, it certainly doesn’t hurt.
“Poor inflation numbers would have caused a good deal of harm to her at this point, as this is likely to be the most important issue to undecided voters in critical swing states,” she said.
The positive economic picture is a remarkable victory for both Biden and Powell, even as consumers still feel squeezed by higher prices. Last year, economists widely expected that the central bank might cause a recession in its bid to choke off inflation. Instead, the job market has remained resilient and economic growth has not slowed.
Forget that we know the Biden/Harris administration lied about the numbers of jobs created, that these numbers will be revised, and that inflation COMPOUNDS so it's not getting lower it's just not going up as fast ... it's a DREAM.
I don't know about you guys but reading articles like this just makes me even more determined to vote for Trump and kick this useless administration out officially. Part of me wonders if they are saying this now because they think Trump is going to win and when he does turn things around they can try and give credit to Biden.
It's sad we can't trust anyone in legacy media to shoot us straight.
