Trumpenomics

[taiwan_girl]

The latest quarterly Trump economic report. Couple of things which you may notice.

• I changed the source of some of the information, so that I get all of it from official US government sources. I went back and re-did the numbers so that they all came from US government.
• I am not sure a "strict" change in % vs. the end of President Biden term tells the whole story. Probably better to graph out the numbers to see trends etc., but I was too lazy to do that. LOL

If AI manages to create jobs in aggregate rather than destroy them, we are on the verge of a spectacular economy.
