Americans aren’t happier about Biden economy despite major media outlets telling them how good they have it
Fox News
Multiple media outlets and figures have insisted the U.S. economy is strong and claimed that those who don't recognize it aren't getting correct information.
The Atlantic published a column last week titled, "Why Americans Hate a Good Economy" in an attempt to make sense of why "most Americans believe their financial situation has gotten worse since Joe Biden became president." Gabriel Hays is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
It began with a positive assessment of the state of the economy, stating, "Last month the unemployment rate was down to 3.9 percent… The Consumer Price Index was unchanged. A new paper shows that wage inequality has fallen over the past three years, driven by workers leaving their old jobs for better-paying ones. The U.S. has been adding jobs at a record clip. And wages – adjusted for inflation – may have finally surpassed pre-pandemic levels."
