  • It’s not an all or nothing with the economy and the president, but they do have some sway in some ways. Easy examples would be Biden’s Build Back Better Plan can help change the American economy, and if he does get elected to a second term, it will show results then.

    On the other side, Trump pushed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This has caused the deficit to climb, and didn’t help spur any economic growth (in fact:

    A study by the Federal Reserve Bank similarly found that corporations bought-back stock and paid down debt, rather than undertake either new capital expenditure or investment in research & development.

    And many of the issues of this truly Act became an issue starting in 2021, which if Trump was in office, would have been reflected on his presidency. (It’s part of the issues Biden has been having with the economy).

    Been to one restaurant that only had QR codes, and it was horrible.

    The wait staff were only there to clean tables. They just came by and slapped a QR code card on the table (yes, slapped, they clearly didn’t want to be there) and then walked away. The web site was horrible, and not designed with a small screen in mind. Had to order only through the website, including pay with my CC on their site. Also had to give them my phone number (so they could text me when my order was up).

    Just the worst and most lazy corners cut at every possible chance.
