as posted by the channel

With many Americans struggling to keep up with the cost of inflation, new data from Moody’s Analytics shows the wealthiest 10% of households account for nearly half of all spending in the United States. Andrew Wang, host of the “Inspired Money with Andrew Wang" podcast, tells “Morning in America” a recession is already happening for many Americans. “When teachers are borrowing from retirements to fix roofs while their neighbors are planning cruises, that’s not a recession forecast, that’s today’s reality,” he says.
