    I mean the metrics were good, for rich people

    Now it’s just worse for everyone, although the rich will get even more after they buy up everything once we’re in full recession

      The metrics were actually good across the board and the direction was good on all metrics. Not only for rich people.

      Having Bronzo back will highlight just how good it actually was.

        I mean you can say that, but were houses/rent getting cheaper? Were median wages rising? The cost of groceries was actually falling slightly, but still way higher than a year ago

        Yes, the numbers are worse and so is everything else. There’s some amount of correlation, but when everything crashes in the coming months that won’t prove the metrics are accurate…

        The metrics will crash when our economy does, but that doesn’t prove they’re good metrics
