The economic state of the world is currently in a bad shape. For most parts of the world, we are seeing a recession headed straight towards us in 2024. This is also reflected in higher end consumer goods where brands are falling behind their sales target. European and Asian countries are more or less facing the same thing as America.
However, Breitbart states, In President Joe Biden’s America, a recent LendingClub study revealed that a majority of Americans struggle paycheck to paycheck, casting doubt on the efficacy of “Bidenomics” in aiding the average citizen. The study highlights concerns echoed in polling, with only 14% feeling Biden’s economic policies have benefited them, while 85% perceive them as ineffective or even harmful.
