    Yellen tries to make the case that people ‘are better off now’

    Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen argued that everyone is better off today than they were before President Joe Biden’s inauguration in an effort to defend his economic laws.

    On Thursday, Yellen made an appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box to respond to a poll that revealed the majority of Americans believe the nation is in crisis. Importantly, Biden’s 2024 player former President Donald Trump has polled much on issues surrounding the market, as possible voters view his policies stronger than Biden’s.

    The Congressional Budget Office, a nonpartisan organization that recently released an evaluation of women’s purchasing power in each income group, was cited by the Treasury Secretary. Before Biden took company and before the state experienced COVID- 19, the CBO compared data from last year to the year before.

    ” All Americans, both those who are well off and those who are near the bottom of the money transmission, are better off today that pay have risen more than rates”, Yellen summarized the results.

    Jerome Powell, the head of the Federal Reserve, confirmed earlier this year that those in the lowest income group are under increasing financial strains. Powell pointed to the country’s career statement which toted some 272, 000 work to help those in this class. According to Yellen, the answer has been wage rises.

    ” I think President Biden understands that individuals are feeling pain”, Yellen said. ” I think they’ve seen the level of prices rise quite a lot, I mean, over 20 % over the last three years or so. They can recall the time when the price of a loaf of bread or a gallon of milk was 30 % less than it is now. And families with lower incomes have experienced some of the highest cost increases. That said, compensation have even gone up”.

    Inflation fell by 0.2 % in May and decreased by 2.2 % over the year.

    However, Trump is even making the state of the economy a focal point of his plan. He made the announcement at a protest in Las Vegas on Sunday that he would abolish taxes on income for those who collect tips.
