The Economist has no credibility. It's a cheerleader for the status quo.

I mean, the money is indeed on fire

Safe to say it’s now burning up over the Gulf of Mexico

You know, typically Republican presidents get to ride the coattails of the outgoing Dem and pretend the economical gains that administration made were their own. Trump and Skum decided to just get in there and immediately raze that shit to the ground. It's kind of refreshing for the Republican party to for once be up front about pillaging the economy for themselves and the rich and not even pretending they're interested in a good one for the people.

Hmm, something had changed, I wonder what it was.

Yeah, it's all just smoke and mirrors. Five months ago "the economy" was also shit for poor people.
