Nice site, notice the sharp uptick after 2020 here?

That uptick is double the angle.

Duke,

Shut up and do the math.

Duke,

Shut up and do the math.

Don't tell me what to do, boy. You do not have that right.

You can go jump off a table headfirst again, though.

Which specific POLICY caused this to happen?

Then take your beating and run along.

First do the math.

Then we'll have something to discuss.

Nope if you want to discuss policy the math doesnt matter. Is this the deficit reduction? Or the unemployment numbers? Deficit went down and unemployment went down pandemic to post pandemic. I havent disputed that. Which policy that was enacted caused it. This should be a layup.

Not this again.

The effectiveness of policy is measured in outcomes.

You've never bothered to establish what they are.

So we are going to look at RESULTS.

Then you can go ahead and explain why, in theory, the facts are just being contrary.

WHICH POLICY? WHICH ONE? You're posting outcomes without posting the policy you think made them happen. 8 pages and you havent listed a single policy. Not one.

First let's agree on what is objectively true.

Then we can discuss what may have made it happen.

The only thing that’s objectively true so far is you have little interest in discussing policy and want to play stupid games.

Post a policy and the results you think it brought about or fuck off.

No...

What is clear to this point is that you are ignorant of the facts, and want to have a theoretical discussion of "policies".

One I very much doubt you are capable of engaging in.

But you SHOULD be capable of some arithmetic.

Thank you for proving my point. You’re dismissed.

Thank you...

Be sure to hang around for the numbers you've never seen.

 

[Couchpotato]

Thank you...

You’re the guy who bitched that noone would discuss policy and are now refusing to discuss policy………

Over to you.

 

[The5thHorseman]

Don't, for even a second, think that the misery ends with employment....

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Because one number is unambiguously smaller than the other.

It sure is.

How did he do it?

You must know, so why are you afraid to share? LOL!

By requesting less money.

By requesting less money.

Sounds so simple.

For which areas did he request less money?
