Joe Biden/AP Photo (The Center Square, Casey Harper) – A major international economic forecasting group has now lowered its optimism about a U.S. rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Tuesday released its Economic Outlook, a “twice-yearly analysis of the major global economic trends and prospects for the next two years.”
Globally, the group projected that the worlds’ Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would grow 5.7% this year and 4.5% in 2022.
“Economic growth has picked up this year, helped by strong policy support, the deployment of effective vaccines and the resumption of many economic activities,” the report said.
However, the OECD significantly lowered growth predictions for the U.S., nearly a full percentage point, from 6.9% to 6% for 2021. The Delta variant is one reason for the decrease, though other economic factors come into play.
The report points out that U.S. employment remains well below pre-pandemic levels.
“The recovery remains very uneven, with strikingly different outcomes across countries, sectors and demographic groups in terms of output and employment… leaving countries facing different policy challenges,” the report said. “In some countries where output has returned to pre-pandemic levels, such as the United States, employment remains lower than before the pandemic. In others, particularly in Europe, employment has been largely preserved, but output and total hours worked have not yet recovered fully. Rapid rebounds in activity have occurred in a few emerging-market economies, but in some cases this has been accompanied by high inflation pressures.”

A leading cause of concern is inflation , which has risen the most in decades in the last 12 months.
“Inflation has risen sharply in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and some emerging-market economies, but remains relatively low in many other advanced economies, particularly in Europe and Asia,” the report said. “G20 consumer price inflation is projected to moderate from 4½ per cent at the end of 2021 to around 3½ per cent by the end of 2022, remaining above the rates seen prior to the pandemic. Supply pressures should fade gradually, wage growth remains moderate and inflation expectations are still anchored, but near-term risks are […]

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
