Moving from a C-37 test to a C-17 test does wonders for positivity rates.
It feels like bizzaro world. They are comparing a reopened economy to a closed economy and brag about the difference.
Trump fucked up by playing along with this bullshit.
I only saw a comparison to the previous quarter.
Last time it was higher was 1984.
Yes. Going from 100 to 10 and then back to 20 is a 100% gain, and likely higher than any previous gain. We've never mandated a complete shut down the US economy before. Any wonder why the first metric after re-opening would show huge gains?
Maybe because unemployment people get paid more to not work than to return to jobs
actually we're past 100. Maybe if the WH had lead during the pandemic, instead of punting the responsibility, the past few years would be better.
