67 Economists batting zero

How are all of them so wrong....

Did they derive their findings from feelings and memes?

I'm so tired of the "experts".

Also, I keep hearing how bad the economy is too, where is the proof?

They arent paid or labeled experts because they are correct, they are those things for the sole purpose of pushing a leftist narrative.

They are a cog in the propaganda machine, the next cog are those who report their findings as fact.

It's layered from start to finish with zero sunlight tin between.

The "economy" itself is chugging along as it has been for a long time, I think it's more that people are referring to affordability and prices when they refer to the "economy" these days.

And yes affordability and prices suck balls and have for a long time and no president is going to be able to fix it.

So, 67 economists have TDS.

My theory is this. Even during the best economic times this country has ever seen, there were still people losing jobs and getting laid off, businesses failing, houses being foreclosed, cars being repo'd, people in bankruptcy. During the worst economic times, some people got new jobs, getting raises, new businesses opened, people were buying houses, new cars, people doing better than ever. Depends on who you ask.

The media and those who are trying to manipulate will find these people to try to manipulate in how they want.

You can give the credit to Trump or say he has nothing to do with it, but the fact is the economy is good.

Depends on how people define the economy. It is 100% full retard to go around bragging about a good economy in the current environment. Biden tried that and it spectacularly backfired. Trump is now doing that as well, and surprise surprise, this too is spectacularly backfiring.

They all do. There are always good and bad things going on with the economy.

It's kind of like, when your neighbor loses his house, it's a recession. When you lose your house, it's a depression! Your neighbor gets laid off, the unemployment rate may only be 5%, you lose your house, the unemployment rate is 100%.

I thought George Bush and the Republicans lying 935 times to get their War in Iraq on behave of the Jews resulting in the deaths of 20,000 Soldiers and 200,000 Iraqi women and children and $2 Trillion in cost to taxpayers was bad.


But Economist being wrong by .4% is........


I don't know how I'm going to recover from this??? :/
