      You would assume so…but who knows. We have a wanna be dictator at the helm in the US that has the mental capacity of goldfish, so fiscal responsibility isn’t exactly this administrations forte!

          It is quite possible, the giant hiring spree during covid and immediately after was never going to last unfortunately. Maybe after the midterms things will change in a positive direction.

              While that has worked in the past, I don’t think it’s gonna fly this time.

              Optics matter and right now GOP are far more all in on AI, it’s also Cheeto’s halfway point, things crashing badly with Dems having some power won’t look like it’s the Dems in control.

              The fact that the economy took a bad turn right when he came into office is an association that most people won’t forget.

              Ahh good point, it is certainly a method that works for them since they really don’t have much else to campaign on.
