This week in Bidenomics: Get ready for the Biden boom
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/this-week-in-bidenomics-get-ready-for-the-biden-boom-190552832.htmlThis is the rationalization for Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, which seems likely to pass in March. Congress may not approve the entire amount, but there will almost certainly be another $1,400 check, or more, for most families and an extension of supplemental unemployment benefits. The final price tag could be around $1.5 trillion. That would boost the total amount of fiscal stimulus during the last year to nearly $6 trillion, by far the most aggressive federal response to a recession since the 1930s.
Then, the boom will arrive. A variety of indicators are beginning to foretell a surge in economic growth, and the consequences of that. Retail sales surged 5.3% in January, much more that expected. One factor boosting spending was the $600 stimulus checks that went out to most homes in early January, as part of the late-2020 stimulus bill. Business spending picked up, as well, not surprising since CEO confidence recently hit a 17-year high.
With even more stimulus cash likely to hit mailboxes soon, economists are raising their forecasts for GDP growth. From Feb. 12 to Feb. 19, the New York Federal Reserve’s estimate of first-quarter GDP growth jumped from 6.7% to 8.3%. Forecasting firm Capital Economics expects full-year real GDP growth of 6.5% in 2021, which would be the strongest since 1984. “There is no recession,” says former Congressional Budget Office Director Douglas Holtz-Eakin. “The economy is growing strongly.”
Covid vaccinations are another bullish indicator. Biden says ample vaccines could be available by July, and other health experts think herd immunity could arrive sooner. That could bring a quicker revival of the gasping parts of the economy.

I typically don't like Yahoo articles but this is a good one. Plus i like the sound of "Biden Boom!"
Biden's shaping up to be a phenomenal POTUS! 
= new reply since forum marked as read
So glad we now have a great POTUS & we're reaping the rewards of our collective labor and votes to get Joe elected. Such a great, decent, caring man, married to an equally awesome woman. AND he's got another great woman as his 2nd in command!
I didn't see it in the primaries. I bought into the caricature of his old age and moderateness - that he represented something of the past.
I love Bernie, but accepted at some point that his candidacy wouldn't bear fruit.
Kamala was my favorite - when Joe picked her, I thought - OK, this is someone I can really get behind.
Since becoming President- he's fulfilling my wildest dreams. Obama was transformational, almost on another level. Joe is the man for THIS time.
I remind myself that Biden was the one behind the push for marriage equality - bringing Obama along with HIM!
He's always been in touch with his own working person's roots. What a model of decency, dignity and true empathy!
So here's what kills me:
1st we are all enraptured when Obama won twice.
Then I though we would be truly so fortunate to also live through the 1st woman president (HRC. 
)
Then we entered a circle of hell with the orange menace who shall not be named. I thought it was the worst of political eras ever - our worst president and the face of pure evil.
And now: MORE HISTORY TO LIVE THROUGH - I think we are in the brink of a historical presidency of historical progressive change! On one hand, I think those in the admin must think this is kinda easy, following such a horrible corrupt incompetent admin. I mean, the bar is low - just the very basic duties of leadership is what we have been missing for the past 4 years.
But then of course there are the multi-level crises they must face.
Anyway, once again, I feel SO FORTUNATE TO BE ALIVE in this time in America. All I can do is work to share my privilege and gifts to support this admin as far as my energy takes me!!
I will be out living like there is no tomorrow! 
add in the focus on climate crisis, going Green, & reversal of those harmful immigration policies makes for a great start to his administration.
