4 ways Powell just confirmed the economy is getting worse

• Fewer job gains – hiring momentum is fading.

• Higher unemployment – more people are out of work.

• Higher inflation – prices are still running hotter than families can afford.

• Lower GDP growth – the economy is slowing, now at 1.5% vs. 2.5% last year.

Fed Chairman Jerome Powell just admitted the economy has fewer job gains, higher unemployment, higher inflation, AND a lower GDP:“1.5% down from 2.5% last year."

You aren't poor because you don't work hard enough.

You're poor because the government steals too much of your fucking money via taxes and inflation.

Why are we cutting rates again?

We’ve made practically zero progress on inflation and this is before the tariffs kick in. https://t.co/Ovbu5RFoxU
