The Economic Report

  • On November 12th, the longest government shutdown in American history finally ended as both political parties reached an agreement. 

    • The shutdown slowed government spending and limited the pay of government workers, negatively impacting both the economy and the GDP. 

    • It also led to the restriction of SNAP benefits, which helps feed over 40 million people in the country. 

  • Despite this, the Labor of Bureau Statistics (LBS) reports that the country has seen lower rates of inflation than predicted.

  • However, because of the government shutdown, a lot of data is distorted, leaving economists without reliable information to base their calculations off of. Most economic reports are a little vague, with the data from December expected to help bridge that gap.
