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

The status quo 5 months ago?

We can dare to dream.

The status quo 5 months ago is exactly what led to the status quo now.

No, everyone not appreciating what we had 7 months ago is what led to the status quo now.

But please keep whining like a 3 year old about how bad biden/kamala are and genocide Joe.

Sounds like you should read the Economist.

Unless a market based approach is the status quo you're talking about, in which case almost every mainstream news source would count.

Exactly. Keep the rich rich.

I mean, the money is indeed on fire

Prescient picture, in retrospect.

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.

Isn't the economy always shit for poor people? That's pretty much a given when you're poor, wherever you are.
