Food for thought:

* Big investors almost never invest the year leading into a general election. They already spent all that money on bribes and lobbying.

* So much of the US had already outsourced a great part of their manufacturing.

* Much of that manufacturing went to china. (be sure the check the news that china is making in the US today)

* We are more politically divided than ever before (I don't think this is mutually exclusive to the US)

* We are experiencing (in the US) the largest cost burdens ever seen for renters source: https://www.jchs.harvard.edu/sites/default/files/reports/fil...

* There have been many reports of large lay offs in not just the tech sectors.

* Most of our current employment numbers are politically motivated lies or exaggerations

* AI has pushed a 6% increase requirement on development productivity

* There are vastly more boot camps and junior and mid level developers available in the market.

* Remote work make the market global when it was still very local for many.

I feel like there are many more bullet points to add.
