Compared to what main street is just starting to feel, I'm sure the comparison is still apt.
Just starting to feel? Credit card debt reached new high by every measure under Biden, while consumer spending consistently declined and homelessness soared.
Don't get me wrong the shit economy has accelerated and the rich and middle class are finally feeling what the majority of Americans have been feeling for half a decade, but the economy has been shit. It's one of the main reasons Biden/Harris completely lost the trust of the lower class when they always bragged about 'the economy'.
The other reason being that Americans have apparently lost any understanding of what a truly bad economy actually feels like. The lesson is incoming.
I think having to choose between food and rent already makes America's economy circa 2024 worse than most developing countries.
