Consumer confidence, money or what have you is usually apolitical when it comes to how we view the economy.
The researchers are stunned.
“I find it stunning, to be honest. It’s unreal,” said Michael R. Strain, director of economic policy studies at the conservative American Enterprise Institute in Washington. “Things that were less politicized in the past, like how you feel about the economy, have become more politicized now.”
Someone is going to be on the wrong side of a bet!
“Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”
