Yes, due to prolonged Covid shutdowns, masking policies, etc. It all began in April/May of 2020 when mass shutdowns began and went on for almost 2 years. Prior to that, out economy was booming. Now that it's over, we are on the cusp of a recession and Democrats are proposing MORE Covid deficit spending, if anyone can believe that insanity. Gas at $5 per gallon nationally, out of control inflation, baby formula shortages, home and auto prices are unaffordable to many (even old cars and older homes in disrepair), basic goods shortages, war in Ukraine and China starting to flex, societal norms being dismantled everywhere, etc. The country is a mess from top to bottom under these bumbling/mumbling fools.
