Part 4/9:
Many believe that the current economic slowdown can be attributed to the policies implemented during Donald Trump’s presidency. Critics of his administration argue that cuts to government spending and a significant reduction in immigration have weakened the job market and stunted economic growth. The debt-to-GDP ratio has surged to 121%, putting further pressure on an already stressed system.
Reports suggest that over 200,000 federal workers have been laid off under Trump's watch, coinciding with widespread layoffs in the private sector. In Florida, anecdotal evidence suggests that many individuals working for the government or as contractors have lost their jobs or are facing reassignments.
