In this episode, we delve into the disparities between reported job data and actual job growth.

By comparing labor force participation rates and analyzing the influence of disability claims on the workforce, we uncover potential data suppression since 2020. We also look at savings rates and food prices to gauge economic well-being. Ultimately, we question whether the economy is in worse shape than mainstream media portrays.
