We don’t “feel” like we’re struggling. We are struggling.

Both major parties keep rewarding rich people at our expense - they’re obsessed with giving rich people our money

Unemployment rate is not accurate. Include those actively looking beyond 6 months

It’s hardest for people trying to make ends meet while the strong investment and stock market only helps the rich. It’s not an accident that’s how they intentionally set it up.

It’s the system. Neither party can solve the core issues, just make it a little better or worse. Without fundamentally changing the tax system to shift burden to the wealthiest no material changes will happen.

consistency is key/$. unfortunately, if we got to that, the media and the government wouldn't be as vocal.

It’s so much worse now. The president doesn’t give a damn. He will do nothing to help or correct the problem.

“Everyone that wants a job, has one”. What are you talking about? This analysis is out of touch!

This isn’t even close to how regular people think and what they are concerned about

This isn’t correct at all also you didn’t separate full time and part time because a lot of that is accounting for people who cannot find a full time job but still technically “employed”

It’s because they’re robbing us. They’re not paying taxes. Keeping all of the money for themselves. Executives pay themselves millions but give workers scraps. They also fired the employees who were making high salaries
