When someone is as indoctrinated as that one, there really is no point is trying to show them the actual truth. They call conservatives uneducated ....
As I observed in another thread - at the end of the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie, Rocket keeps asking why is it still a crime - if you steal from someone BUT *you* want it MORE. When told it's still stealing ---
Like any myopic idiot, he's convinced that John C Reilly just doesn't understand. Lots of people are unable to understand another viewpoint, because they're locked into THEIRS.
We have a whole panoply of liberal punditry and on Capitol Hill who just don't get why the public isn't convinced that the economy is doing *great*.
And it's because for most people, the "economy" is all about their own personal livelihood. If you're out of work and can't find a job, it's no comfort to hear that unemployment is down. THAT is an example, as I am sure some left leaning nitwit will tell me that it's easy to find a good paying job.
No, I'm talking about stagnant wages and inflation and interest rates. It's not a great economy when my household expenses are up 500-700 bucks a month. When you have to go to savings and retirement to cover unexpected large expenses; when gas is up, utilities like gas and electricity are up, when groceries are through the roof and interest rates are so high, you really can't buy a house - or much else. Unless you're desperate.
When you have lots of money - things like groceries are not even in your wheelhouse - when you don't even drive, the cost of gas isn't a concern. The problem with all of these guys who say "they JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND that the economy is doing GREAT" - it's because they ALL LIVE IN A WORLD where these expenses don't affect them. They are like the Hollywood stars living on huge estates - during the pandemic, telling people who live in tiny flats in New York - just stay home! It's great! Just send out for your groceries! It's Nancy with her luxury freezer packed with JUST expensive ice cream - they purport to stick up for the little guy, but they prove daily *THEY* are the ones who don't get it.
