      Can’t help but shoot themselves in the foot, even when they have “good” news (obvi gdp isn’t a good metric for how your population is actually doing).

      Comparatively, there is a difference. With the added length, the 2021 bar is 50% bigger than 2004 and twice as large as any year between 2006 and 2020. It does make a difference. Its propaganda, perhaps mostly aimed against republicans.

      Regardless, the economy isnt tied to how well americans are doing. By having the white house emphasizing this, they build up on the idea of trickle down economics.

          Wait… WHAT!?

          Damn, that’s some coincidence. You probably should play it sometime, but it’s kinda old right now.

          Then again, people still play Gothic 1 and 2 so I guess it’s no big deal.
