That’s what happens when your previous government runs the economy into the ground. It was only ever going to get worse before it got better, over time it will equalize and stabilize just like it always does.
Previous government ran the economy on the ground out of a lack of capacity and bad decisions. This one is doing it as part of its’s plan.
