I think your final statement is the most poignant: The “Golden Age of America” is not yet here. Whether it will eventually get here is something we do not yet know, Trumpian social media cheerleading notwithstanding.
“…not YET here,”…”something we do not yet know.” The Trump admin has a LOT to undo. I am cautiously optimistic and hope that the next year sees his strategies bear fruit. Short-term pain for long-term gain. Because right now, NONE of us knows what the future will bring.
You consistently state the bald truths, Peter. I would love to see a debate between you and Mark Zandi, or any of the other self-important pundits spewing skewed data. Zandi is two years behind you in seeing the true picture? He should go into another line of work.
The truth is shown by the data. That's always where the truth is going to be found.
Mark Zandi and Scott Bessent are both cherry-picking their data and not doing any cross-referencing with other data sets to confirm what the actual macro trends are within labor markets.
America is not in a "Golden Age" because America has been in a jobs recession for nearly two years and its getting worse, not better.
