There was a lot of debate about whether economic pessimism was based on vibes or real pain but it's an objective fact that we had a much stronger recovery from the Covid recession than our peers and contained inflation better than other countries.

And I think that if the press had focused even half as much on that story as it did on how gloom was impacting the horse race we might not be poised to enter one of the darkest eras in our history.
