Still trying to sell people that they’re better off than before the pan. I am. I got a new job with better benefits. But I got laid-off in two rounds of downsizing before that happened. And I’m sure not everyone who was laid-off has done better since. And the internet tells me people feel squeezed.
If the article said that things didn’t go south as much as we’d feared, I might believe it. But they keep reporting fucking miracles. And I don’t believe in miracles. I can see why conspiracy people feel alienated from news media (I’m not a conspiracy person).
