The Truth About the Trump Economy
I keep hearing that although Trump is a scoundrel or worse, at least he’s presiding over a great economy.
As White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow recently put it, “The single biggest story this year is an economic boom that is durable and lasting.”
Really? Look closely at the living standards of most Americans, and you get a very different picture.
Yes, the stock market has boomed since Trump became president. But it’s looking increasingly wobbly as Trump’s trade wars take a toll.
Over 80 percent of the stock market is owned by the richest 10 percent of Americans anyway, so most Americans never got much out of Trump’s market boom to begin with.
The trade wars are about to take a toll on ordinary workers. Trump’s steel tariffs have cost Ford $1 billion so far, for example, forcing the automaker to plan mass layoffs.
What about economic growth? Data from the Commerce Department shows the economy at full speed, 4.2 percent growth for the second quarter.
But very little of that growth is trickling down to average Americans. Adjusted for inflation, hourly wages aren’t much higher now than they were forty years ago.
Trump slashed taxes on the wealthy and promised everyone else a $4,000 wage boost. But the boost never happened. That’s a big reason why Republicans aren’t campaigning on their tax cut, which is just about their only legislative accomplishment.
Trump and congressional Republicans refuse to raise the minimum wage, stuck at $7.25 an hour. Trump’s Labor Department is also repealing a rule that increased the number of workers entitled to time-and-a-half for overtime.
Yes, unemployment is down to 3.7 percent. But jobs are less secure than ever. Contract workers – who aren’t eligible for family or medical leave, unemployment insurance, the minimum wage, or worker’s compensation – are now doing one out of every five jobs in America.
Trump’s Labor Department has invited more companies to reclassify employees as contract workers. Its new rule undoes the California Supreme Court’s recent decision requiring that most workers be presumed employees unless proven otherwise. (Given California’s size, that decision had nationwide effect.)
Meanwhile, housing costs are skyrocketing, with Americans now paying a third or more of their paychecks in rent or mortgages.
Trump’s response? Drastic cuts in low-income housing. His Secretary of Housing and Urban Development also wants to triple the rent paid by poor households in subsidized housing.
Healthcare costs continues to rise faster than inflation. Trump’s response? Undermine the Affordable Care Act. Over the past two years, some 4 million people have lost healthcare coverage, according to a survey by the Commonwealth Fund.
Pharmaceutical costs are also out of control. Trump’s response? Allow the biggest pharmacist, CVS, to merge with the one of the biggest health insurers, Aetna – creating a behemoth with the power to raise prices even further.
The cost of college continues to soar. Trump’s response? Make it easier for for-profit colleges to defraud students. His Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos, is eliminating regulations that had required for-profit colleges to prove they provide gainful employment to the students they enroll.
Commuting to and from work is becoming harder, as roads and bridges become more congested, and subways and trains older and less reliable. Trump’s response? Nothing. Although he promised to spend $1.5 trillion to repair America’s crumbling infrastructure, his $1.5 trillion tax cut for big corporations and the wealthy used up the money.
Climate change is undermining the standard of living of ordinary Americans, as more are hit with floods, mudslides, tornados, draughts, and wildfires. Even those who have so far avoided direct hits will be paying more for insurance – or having a harder time getting it. People living on flood plains, or in trailers, or without home insurance, are paying the highest price.
Trump’s response? Allow more carbon into the atmosphere and make climate change even worse.
Too often, discussions about “the economy” focus on overall statistics about growth, the stock market, and unemployment.
But most Americans don’t live in that economy. They live in a personal economy that has more to do with wages, job security, commutes to and from work, and the costs of housing, healthcare, drugs, education, and home insurance.
These are the things that hit closest home. They comprise the typical American’s standard of living.
Instead of an “economic boom,” most Americans are experiencing declines in all these dimensions of their lives.
Trump isn’t solely responsible. Some of these trends predated his presidency. But he hasn’t done anything to reverse them.
If anything, he’s made them far worse.

YOU HAVE ENTERED
RADICAL SATURDAY
Today’s Friday, though.
This might sound self-absorbed (I'm sorry) but reading your previous reply to the anon makes me glad I'm a baby Phile and got into the show after it aired. Since I heard so much about season 9, it was very easy for me to get into the mindset of Existence being the *actual* final episode. I never even watched season 9 and 10, and only caught the MotW's of season 11 (which I liked). I believe this must be so much harder if you've been with the show since the 90s.
Yeah… *sigh*
I think you are lucky in that sense. I got a friend of mine to watch the show earlier this year and we watched through it all together. We got to the end of season 8 and I said to him, look… I think you should just stop here and imagine this as the end for these characters. They left the X-Files, they had a child together, the alien invasion has been thwarted… they get to go live their lives together, finally having some happiness after all their loss and pain.
He agreed, and he never watched season 9, 10 or 11… not even I Want To Believe. For that, I envy him.
Existence was originally the end of the show. It was written as the end, it has a conclusion that fits the arcs of the characters, particularly Mulder, finding something else more important to him than the X-FIles – a family. Love.
In a way, that’s what he had been searching for all along. His family. I think in a strange way, Mulder has been trying to get back to the life he had before Samantha was taken. If only she would come home, his parents wouldn’t be broken anymore, he wouldn’t have to feel alone, his family could be whole again.
It’s such a perfect arc for Mulder to realise, after accepting that Samantha is dead and will not be coming home, that he is free to move forward past her loss. His eyes are opened and what he sees is Scully. Having William not only brings Scully’s arc to a close – she finally gets her wish of motherhood – but Mulder’s too. He has so desperately wanted the security and warmth of love and family, and while he could never fix what was broken when Samantha was taken, what he can do is have a family of his own. A new family.
I think that scene in Vienen is one of Mulder’s most significant character moments. When he accepts being fired from the FBI and shakes Doggett’s hand. Telling him to answer the phone because it’s his phone now, not his.
He isn’t angry or even really fighting it. He is at peace with leaving the X-Files behind because he finally has what he had been searching for all those years.
Love.
How differently we would remember the show if it had truly ended there. No sequels no reboots, no movies. For me, season 9 onwards really broke the show. There’s no other way to really look at it. I don’t want to be negative so I will not say more than that, but for me the biggest tragedy of the X-Files was that they didn’t know when to stop. And that’s a tragedy that continues…
I think you are very lucky to have been able to stop at Existence and not go any further – to hold onto that as the true ending of the show. I really wish I could have too.
