Economics 101

Are you better off today than you were four years ago?

In March of 2020 the unemployment rate was at 4.4 percent.  By the time April rolled-around it had risen to 14.8 percent!

To be clear, I think presidents get too much blame for bad economies and take too much credit for strong economies.  Truthfully, it is a heavy lift for a president to move something as complex as the US economy.  Nevertheless, under the current guy the unemployment rate has been under 4 percent for 24 consecutive months.
