Germany?

37% of the GDP is based on government spending; which is running $2 trillion deficits this year and in the future.  Credit card balances (20%+ rates) & defaults continue to go up  If it wasn't for this increase in deficit spending, GDP growth would struggle to be zero.

 

This explains the disconnect between the GDP growth & people's feelings toward the economy.

The effectiveness of Republican propaganda is what explains that disconnect. That, and people (like Tom) are fucking stupid.

Here is an idea that you might consider Dr. Tom:  why don't you let the evidence lead you to a conclusion, rather than let your predetermined conclusion lead you to the "evidence" which you cite.

I am assuming everything above is a lie - because tom - but even if it were true, it is still a non-answer answer.

MP can't use Google.

The usual suspects can't understand the basic concept that the government spending money it doesn't have & consumers spending money they don't have (credit cards) is a recipe for disaster

Thanks Tom !   And your own chart shows its done nothing but come down since Biden took office.   

Where are you going to move your goal posts  now?   

 

Maybe unemployment is up amongst white men in Mississippi missing two or more teeth.     Lets go there !

Most of the "created" jobs are for people who are working 2 or more jobs.

 

Less people are working full time than in March & the number has been declining since June.
