    Yea, strange how a government actually investing money in infrastructure and public services improves the lives of people overall.

      Even stranger that so many voters seem unable to see this obvious truth.

        I wasn’t the person but presumably they thought your point of view was reductionist given that the 90s were a time of widespread global prosperity. Like there was a specific context behind all of the investment.

        The government investing in public services was definitely one of the key factors in life being better back then.
