There’s been an incredible turnaround in the economy since the beginning of 2017. The secret to this growth is what President Trump and the Republican Congress have done:
They have dramatically lowered taxes.
They have dramatically decreased regulations.
It was the taxes and regulations that killed the economy under President Obama.
Here are 5 things you should know about today’s current economy that you’ll never hear in the media:
- The U.S. grew at a powerful 4.1% rate in the second quarter of this year.
That means more jobs and higher wages.
I have long said that our economy can grow between 4-6% … and now, it’s happening.
- This giant leap in economic growth is the strongest in 4 years…
… and marks one of the best quarters in the past decade.
- Barack Obama’s socialist economic policies produced stagnation in the economy.
Under Obama, we experienced one of the worst economies in American history.
In 8 years, Obama never produced economic growth of more than 2.6%. That had not happened since before WWII.
- Under President Obama, the average economic growth rate was 2 %.
He defended this low rate, saying that was the new normal. The media and progressive politicians laughed at the idea that anyone could do any better.
What caused this bad economic growth under Obama?
- Higher taxes
- Greater regulation
What was difference with President Trump?
Just the opposite.
The historic tax reduction effect is just now taking place.
And the amount of reductions in regulations has been extraordinary.
It’s big government vs. small government. It’s helping business, not hurting business.
The next step for even greater economic growth?
- To grow the economy and to cause wages to increase even more, we should have another round of tax cuts and deregulation must continue.
Socialism is representative of high taxes and high regulation. The free market is indicative of low taxes and little regulation. That’s all the difference between economic failure and great prosperity.
It’s the difference that helps individuals and families see their incomes increase, prosperity boom and opportunities explode.
