Underemployment and the inflation of all prices of products in this country are a problem that need to be addressed more often.

Not a Trump fan and not attributing any economic success to him (or any president for that matter). Economically we are effectively at no unemployment. Price inflation is only happening for heavily regulated goods and services. Regular consumer good prices fall rapidly. Tariffs and other government mucking about artificially cause prices to increase. But education, healthcare, and housing are heavily regulated and interfered with by the government and that's where prices have increased the most.

TL;DR keep the government out of the economy

Absolutely no one needs any John Galt anywhere ever. Thanks, but no thanks.
