If only we knew what was in store for us when you left

Going to out my age here, but I saw Bush fuck up a govt surplus, then saw Trump fuck up a good economy with a dumbass tactic for COVID. My parents talked about how Bush senior fucked up shit. IDK man, at this point, statistics be damned by maybe Republicans only talk about fiscal awareness when they're the exact opposite. They sound more like the Tate bros who think they're not pussies until they have to stand up to another dude, then they choose to bitch out and complain that the world hates them.

It's not just america, it's a global trend, Progressive policies lead to growth, Conservative policies lead to regression. It's blatantly laid out in the rhetoric "Good old days" "Make (Insert country name here) Great Again!" etc. Are all calling to a golden age that doesn't exist and attempts to revert society to those mythical heights always faceplant when reality comes calling.

Wealth gap/inequality had been accelerating since the 50s, but went into overdrive with Regan. Since then every republican administration has done what they could to improve the lives of the top .1%. Maybe we should stop voting for the Uber wealthy to lead the country.
