It’s official: Trump is dragging down not just the U.S. economy but the entire global economy, too. That's according to th new OECD economic outlook, which showed higher inflation and slower global growth this year due to uncertainty and trade wars wapo.st/3FEqW68

Opinion | It’s not just the U.S. Trump is bad for the entire global economy.
Forecasts are now predicting slower growth and higher prices — thanks to Trump’s policies.

Since 1970 productivity has increased 200%, that means that 66% of people could be unemployed and living standards would be exactly the same as in 1970. Instead 100% of people work, there are no Public Services and you are not richer. But the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.
