This should be in every Kamala Harris ad this week. The economy is booming. Jobs everywhere. People have money to spend, and they are spending it!

I’m so frustrating not seeing ads touting the booming economy President Biden and VP Harris have brought us. Those kinds of ads would convince reluctant voters to come to our side.

Argle Bargle where’s my Big Mac?

much pearl clutching over Presidential polling numbers that are based on a tiny, easily manipulated set of stats??

Asking for all the sane people here at DU.

I only paid $2.79 a gallon for gas yesterday! Where's the reporting on that?

was at the beginning of this month, actually seeing a couple gas stations here in Philly, that actually had BELOW $3/gal gas (I think one was $2.98 and the other was $2.99). That has not been the case near me in at least a decade or more. Granted, it was just a couple, but still. I got some gas last week and a few more stations were down further, and getting closer to that $3. I think I paid $3.09/gal

Each earning $20+ per hour, working 25 to 35 hours per week.

Even though they are considered 'part-time' (because of the weekly hours not being 40), they still get full medical and dental here in CA. The hours are flexible. Two work nights and weekends, two work morning shifts, and one works doing the "heavy lifting" (he's former military used to lifting heavy objects 40, 50, 60 lbs.) throughout the week.

So, yeah, it might be real.

They are working out well, so their hours will be extended to 35 or more as they desire (they will be asked if they can work more, and which days/shifts can be added or extended).

We also added two high-schoolers, but because of federal labor laws (for minors, they being under 18), they can only work at most 4 hours per day. They typically work after school, the afternoon shifts, from around 3pm to 7pm about 3 days per week (their choice), one M,W,F, the other, T,W,Th..
