"Today, the U.S. has the highest economic growth rate, leading the world economies since the pandemic — the highest in the world."

Talk like this infuriates me. It's so very out of touch.

• The streets are crawling with homeless people.
• Homeownership is completely unattainable.
• Even rental apartments are the subject of bidding wars.
• Living with your parents in your 30s is the new normal.
• Middle-class stay-at-home parents exist only in history books.
• Prices for food and other consumer goods have more than doubled in price since the pandemic began.
• Working only 40 hours a week is considered a luxurious privilege.
• Most major industries are dominated by a handful of megacorporations with no meaningful competition.

The economy is in no shape to be bragged about.

Can we fill the government with some actual progressives, please?
