If you don’t have a NYT sub: [https://archive.ph/sUGwD](https://archive.ph/sUGwD) (some graphs are missing).
It’s based on the [State of the Nation Project’s new National Progress Report](https://stateofnation.org/) (no paywall). They track how well the US is doing compared to other countries (absolute and relative), on a number of basic indicators.
Their four conclusions:
>We are a nation of extremes—extreme successes and extreme failures.
>Our national trends are improving in more areas than we are declining. However, relative to other countries, the opposite is true—we are declining in more areas than we are improving.
>Our economy is poised for continued success.
>Our rising incomes are not translating into greater perceived well-being and social relations.
For now
Yes the Biden economy was doing great but Trump will reverse that trend.
