    While @readDonaldTrump tweets about GDP, working Americans see the reality: wages are decreasing & costs of living are rising.https://twitter.com/SenBennetCO/status/1034563994768613378 …

    The measure for a healthy economy is not how well the stock market is doing, but whether working people can afford housing, health care, higher education, and day care. We should be working to make it easier for families to afford these important costs of living, not harder.

        Yeah - Colorado has the best economy in the nation but a great economy with low wages and an unaffordable cost of living is simply not sustainable. Renters in Colorado are paying more than 50% of their take home pay on rent.

        Thank you, Senator. Roughly half of Americans do not participate in the stock market, thus it is not a great indicator of economic health for millions of Americans. Unfortunately POTUS does not acknowledge that.

        At an average cost of $500,000, it is out of reach for many Coloradans to afford the down payment and the monthly mortgage (and maintenance) costs of a new home. Health care costs, college debt, transportation, food.....how do you possibly save for retirement?

        It appears Colo's great economy has ditched the idea of the middle class. Maybe you've won the lottery, inherited money from your Aunt Mable or are working in a very high-paying niche area. But the majority of people have fallen behind. It's become a state of haves and have-nots.

        Comrade Donny does not understand the pressures of working Americans. He knows how to divide America so he can continue his kleptocracy.

        "but whether working people can afford housing, health care, higher education, and day care." You mean all those things we haven't been able to afford since 2010? Sit down. You had your chance. We voted you out for a reason. #GOPTaxBill saves us about $3200/yr. #VoteRed2018

        Explain that, if you can without making a fool of yourself. How will I be "disappointed come tax time"? Be specific.

        We had to move away from Gunnison because the cost of living rose too much in the last 2 years, when we moved there in 2016 the average rent was 1200-1500, now it's 1500-2000, and there are no rentals available, while no one in the town was paying more than 11/hr.

        How about the both of you start addressing the real problem? The privately held, criminal entity known as the Federal Reserve that has destroyed our currency and is using debt and inflation as a weapon against We the People.

        Here's the scam: The majority tithes money to the swamp and government, while the minority (the wealthy) and their partners remain small, untouchable and carry on as if this is completely fine and normal.
