  1. People spend based on optimism and government investing in people while positive GDP growth numbers come out is the engine that fuels to further this growth

  2. ask this guy what the amount of tax cuts have been post the tipp o neal tax cuts done during reagains union busting. also factor in inflation caused by red ink dollars.

  3. Thank You Mr. Bernstein for your wisdom and clarity. Solid questions by the MSNBC reporter 😃.

  4. This is what happens when you elect a failed reality TV show host who bankrupted multiple casinos, got conned into laundering money for Russians, and is leveraged to the hilt with debt to pay for his past mistakes.

  5. Just asking, those who “Don’t want to go back to work due to low wages and the government is already paying me more.” Do you have a source for that? Are you talking about unfilled jobs? Those jobs also require , for the most part, interpersonal interaction. Though Covid is way down, if I wasn’t vaccinated I wouldn’t want to enter those jobs either. So are the employers or the jobless to blame for the growing list of unfilled positions? Shouldn’t wages be climbing to get someone anyone into these positions? Why are they still at the minimum wage? No one WANTS to take a minimum wage job, it’s usually that or nothing. Today people have a cushion, once that goes away let the hunger games begin anew. And as always may the odds ever be in your favor.

  6. The trump family made millions through out the years skimming out of the taxpayers, of course you have to dig yourself out!

  7. President Biden did very good job for the American’s/consistently fixings damages that the loosers Mitch McConnell did not have any proposals at all!

  8. We are climbing out of a hole to fall into a hellish pit. Buckle up for this disastrous ride.

    1. Hellish pit like the last four years. You have the memory of a gnat. Your a minority trumpster.

  9. They should create IRS bounty hunters. Pay them a percentage of the amount they reclaim.

  10. Okay Stephanie, I am calling you out. Who knows that workers are staying home because the benefits are so great and what does that say about wages in America?

  11. People will definitely be kicking themselves in regret for missing the opportunity to buy and invest in cryptocurrency

    1. I lost £1200 carelessly trading on a platform then I was referred to mr George Anderson he recovered the loss and made an extra profit of £4900

    2. I tried trading on my own but it only left chasing shadows, trading without a professional like mr George Anderson is like gambling with your money

    3. Mr George Anderson has been managing my trade for months and I keep making profits every week , made $9,130 last week

    4. I’ve worked with 4 traders in the past but none of them is as efficient as he is ,he’s trading strategies are awesome !
