President Trump tweeted Thursday that the recent decision by the Federal Reserve to not raise interest rates in 2019 (after raising rates four times in 2018) was unnecessary, but this report shows that the economy is doing well despite it.

Despite the unnecessary and destructive actions taken by the Fed, the Economy is looking very strong, the China and USMCA deals are moving along nicely, there is little or no Inflation, and USA optimism is very high! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 4, 2019

Looks as if he was right.

Someone should probably let AOC know that the capitalist economy is doing pretty well.

”When you ask that question, you begin to question the capitalistic economy. And I’m simply saying that more and more, we’ve got to begin to ask questions about the whole society.” – Martin Luther King Jr. — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) April 4, 2019

On Thursday, she tweeted that wages are flat.

How on earth could young people, whose:

-wages are flat

-costs of living skyrocketing

-experiencing increased social instability via bigotry, addiction, + violence

-expected to live shorter lifespans than previous gens dare question the larger economic forces in their lives?! https://t.co/CigJD9HxVI — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) April 4, 2019

They are, in fact, not flat.
