The [National Federation of Independent Business] has been doing the small business economic trend report for 45 years—and the data is in—this is the best economy for small business in 50 years. And it’s been setting records for the last two and a half years,” said NFIB CEO Juanita Duggan to FOX Business’ David Asman on “Varney & Co.”Opens a New Window. on Monday.

ring the first 2020 debate, many Democrats argued that the U.S. economy isn’t working for small business. However the leader of a major small business group says “that’s simply not true.”
Well the majority of the MSM are pushing an agenda that only the very rich are doing well under Trump and everyone else is suffering miserably and only a Democrat President can save us.
So we all agree that manufacturing, car sales, house sales, etc are showing poor indicators...or at best stable?
And we all agree than the major markets have moved 5% per year since "Tax Reform"...while the deficit and debt has ballooned?
The amazing thing about the Interweb is that you can always find a "report" that fits what you already believe....or, even if you don't believe it! I won't bother linking to the flat earth "reports", the UFO "reports" or the "more people without health insurance" report...nor the decline in life expectancy, the fact that almost 1/2 of Americans aren't in very good shape and all the rest.
"The numbers: IHS Markit said its flash manufacturing purchasing managers index dropped to 50.1 in June from 50.5 in May, the worst reading since September 2009.
Meanwhile the flash services purchasing managers index in June fell to 50.7 from 50.9, the worst reading since March 2016."
" Private-sector output growth has lost momentum in each month since February, IHS Markit said. Production volumes barely rose, and respondents noted “greater risk aversion.”
So....my guess is that now that manufacturing is in the tank, Trump cultists want to find something else to point too? A "report" somewhat that we should care about...
Wouldn't manufacturing and health care, two major promises for "winning bigly" be the most important economic issues here? How about debt and deficit reduction? Surely many Trump voters were into the Tea Party stuff?
Or, is this just a shell game? look over here, not over there?
Worst reading since 2009...that really takes a lot work. I wonder how the Golf Swing is coming along?

Manufacturing jobs have been on the decline since the 60's.
We are a consumer nation, not a producer nation.

Sometimes people are idiots and dont understand how to separate their political biases from actual facts...don't let this person distract you from that fact.
