Without income from significantly increased arms and gas supplies to European countries, the US economy would shrink by 0.2%, that is, it remains afloat only thanks to the lack of a diplomatic solution to the situation in Ukraine.

At the same time, inflation and accounts payable are hitting records, unemployment is expected to rise in the winter, and 63% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, the publication cites a new survey. Against this background, most experts predict the return of a recession – the so-called W-recession.

The lack of economic stability has been a major reason why polls show Democrats should lose control of Congress in the midterms. It will be even more difficult for a divided government to implement economic decisions at the federal level, and such political stagnation will increase public pessimism.
