  1. No they have not. The most recent data from the federal government shows a slight uptick in prescription drug prices that have increased by 0.3%.Saying he is protecting social security while he has said he will look to cut it along with his justice dept. suing to get rid of pre existing conditions. He lied that under Obama, 5 million people left the labor force. In Obama’s first month in office, the labor force was 154.2 million. In Obama’s last month, the labor force was 159.7 million. That’s a gain of 5.5 million, not a loss.“Under my administration, [median income] rose $5,000.” Census data shows median household incomes have risen from $62,626 to $63,179 since Trump has been in office. That’s just $553. The data ends in 2018, but another 11 months won’t account for that extra $4,447 Trump tossed in.The 2017 tax cut was the largest in U.S. history. As a percentage of GDP, it’s more like 8th largest.“Our regulatory rollback is also leading to major price reductions in health care and prescription drugs.” Health care costs have risen 7.5% since Trump took office, according to Census Bureau data. Drug costs are up 2.8%. I could go on but I think I have made my point that fearless leader lied his ass off last night.

  2.  ThisnThatPackRat  Many of the jobs in the trump economy do not provide health care along with other benefits stupid. Since the failed trickle down economic disaster started under Reagan the American worker has been under attack destroying the social contract between workers and corporations leading to the highest wage difference between ceo,s and workers since the gilded age. Chief executives at large companies make roughly $278 for every $1 a typical worker earns — that's up from a ratio of 20-to-1 back in 1965 and a ratio of 58-to-1 in 1989. Suck on that you dope.
