The only evidence I’ve seen that “the economy” is improving is that the stock market is up and TVs are cheap. Literally everything else is the same or worse.
Unemployment is down too and also there has been wage growth in the lower sectors of the economy. Barrister and stock boys are making more. Problem is their wages were shit to start with so they've gone from shit to slightly less shit, and most of that improvement has been eaten up by the economy.
Inflation does seem to be slowing, housing still sucks tho.
was this supposed to be barbacks?
Barista, barbacks count too
