Probably anti-Trump libtards who watch fake news CNN and LSDMSNBC  ....

More likely the reason why Americans put Nancy Pelosi in power in 2018 midterms.  Also the reason Republicans really can't run on the economy.

Lol. Personal financial responsibility.  It's a thing. 

Most cases yes, but you are see more and more of people's wages not keeping up with inflation.  

Saw today where 30 years ago total college debt total was 86 billion, and now it is 1.8 trillion.

Too many parents/students run up way too much student loan debt,  my sons had scholarship money but they also WORKED and paid for a lot of their college costs as the went through school ... result, no college debt ... some people need to get off their butts and do for themselves instead of waiting for a hand out ...

You forgot the part where college is raising rates up so much because they know kids can get loans and grants.  

Yes, I'm seeing more kids putting up loans thinking govt. will forgive/payoff debt.  They don't want to look like fools paying off debt with their money while their friends loans are paid off by taxpayers.  I've told them that is not going to happen.  Its complicated, and tied to the banking industry.

The average American doesn’t know a recession from a banzai charge.  And if any of you bothered reading the article, including CTEX, it didn’t say 40% thought we were in a recession.  It said, 40% said we’re in a recession or, will be in one in 12 months.  Back again to our lack of economic knowledge.   For most Americans, a recession is when your neighbors out of work.  A depression is when you’re out of work.  Economics is not an exact science.  For instance, AOC has an economic degree from what I would have thought a respectable university, and she’s a Socialist.  Afraid most of that 40% are Trump haters, not financial experts.

True story.  Imo, Colleges are no longer institutions of higher learning, but money making operations.  Many employed at our universities are as greedy as the CEO’s of Industry they disdain.

Now students are being told government will pay off loans sooner or later.   That only encourages students to charge everything.   Most students don't understand the depth of how debts and banking are intertwined together.

Must be those out in California and New York that makes up the dimwits majority of ignorant people, they see recession because they are being taxed out of their homes

Don't forget Illinois, Washington, and Hawaii.  I would not doubt that these 40% ers all live in Democrat states or cities where their taxes are out the wazoo or they have set high minimum wage standards where jobs are scarce.  While I hate my property taxes the recession certainly hasn't hit in Houston.

There is hardly any unemployment in my part of the world, the gas boom of the mid 2005's has stopped but still a lot of jobs in plants, processing and other things that go along with it all good paying jobs. The boom has moved to the Permian Basin and I have some friends that moved with it and are making very good money. One guy just left the Waskom Enable Plant to go to work at in Odessa and I asked him is this move worth because you already have one of the top paying jobs in this area, he is single and said the pay is better plus they are providing for his housing.

Big expansion at Beaumont’s ExxonMobil Refinery.   They’re having to advertise for construction workers.   I realize it’s just one area, but in the past, you’d see all kinds of out of state license plates coming down.  Most are busy in their own states.  That’s why I watched in disbelief, as in the Dem Debate, Dem after Dem talked about how bad the economy is.  Lying about it.  Evidently they have little regard for the intelligence of their base, or is their base that unintelligent?    So if you’re a Dem, and have sense enough to pour water out of a boot, you might want to think about it.  Of course, if their financial pie-in-the-sky figures on HC didn’t strike you as insane, just leave that boot full of water alone, or get a conservative friend to empty it for you.

Did you know the economy is booming again under President Trump?  Unemployment is at record lows for minorities and wages are up ... what do you base your inaccurate statement on ... Rachael Madcow rants?
