    Regular people associate “the economy” with their own subjective bubble. Regular people are dumb as fuck and the Dems shouldn’t pretend like we are a country with free education where people make collected and informed decisions.

    Despite the dems prepping the macro economy to distibute wealth to workers, the workers did not feel that wealth.

    It was a good economy for transitioning us to EVs, bad for affording human needs.

        Then they shouldn’t lie to people and say that the economy is good.

        Because the quality of life of their voter base has diminished since Covid.

          Like people confuse weather and climate, or sex and gender, people confuse the economy with their budget. The reality that the economy does not serve the average American is an entirely different problem than the covid recovery. The problem is income inequality has been growing for 50 years. (And Biden tried to help this with caps on medicine costs, college loan forgiveness, the child tax credit, and dozens of other things)
