Rep. Crockett: ‘$5,000, Even if You Get It, It’s Not Going Very Far Because We Are Headed to a Recession’

Crockett: “And what I need people to understand is that that $5,000, even if you get it, it’s not going very far because we are headed to a recession.”
MCKELVEY: “That’s right.”
Crockett: “That is the bottom line. You know, people talked about how terrible the economy was and that was more so like things were expensive, but people were absolutely able to still enjoy all these plane rides. Because every time I caught a flight, it was absolutely packed, right? And so, yes, it was expensive, but you could pay for it. You’re going to end up in a situation where you’re not gonna be able to afford the food. Right now, you’re getting rid of the people that labor in the fields.”
