Wanted to post this because, yeah: out of control private debt, out of control public debt, and increasing unemployment is NOT a good thing when combined with "Job Creation".
It means that people are significantly worse off, but are now moving to two jobs. Meanwhile, are we actually seeing the labor force participation rate STILL has not returned to where it was before Covid
The MSM are playing this off as a political spin to re-enforce the regime, and make it sound like things are going well. Local Economic Terrorist Group, Goldman Sachs, are literally trying to say that the economy isn't anywhere near a recession (the one it's currently in). Even he admits that the job gain is from a loss of self-employment. That's right, jobs increased because people had to get a corporate job because their personal business failed.
Basically, what they are trying to say is that they are making the general population more and more dependent on corporate and oligarchic control, so that they will not have time to dissent when they are being fucked in the ass.
Meanwhile, I can tell you that things have not improved much in the way of everyone's economic life in the real world.
I think I'm registered Libertarian, so I don't think I can vote in the Rep primary. They don't have anyone that I would absolutely support economically, both Trump and DeSantis have a protectionist streak which I don't support too a degree (there's valid arguments about Communist market manipulation making protectionism necessary, but both want more than that). Honestly, Trump's "freedom cities" schpeel actually sounds like he's taking a page from Thatcher to create Free Economic Zones. I don't agree with that (because you don't make specific places de-regulated, you do it everywhere so you don't parasitize the economy to them). But, making such a place would depopulate democratic cities and not make everything a pure rural/urban divide. I think Trump's economic policies make more sense, and he's likely to hit the government pretty hard, which should help alleviate the burden.
But, as I've said before, my vote would actually be for Larry Elder. He'd seriously do some damage.

Who are you going for in the primary? Especially from an economic standpoint

Yea I’m hoping Elder can gain some momentum
Like I said, if BLM starts rioting, I want him on that debate stage no matter what.
