Someone remind me why we are better off today?

SMALL BUSINESS PROBLEMS - Inflation,
supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages
continue to limit the ability of many small
businesses to meet the demand for their products
and services. 33% of U.S. small-business owners
said inflation was their single-most important
problem in October. 31% of owners reported
supply chain disruptions have had a significant
impact on their business. 46% of small business
owners reported job openings that were hard to
fill, and 90% of those hiring or trying to hire
reported few or no qualified applicants (source:
National Federation of Independent Business
survey).
