    Uh, yes. We could talk about unemployment numbers, but even if we did (and i have a distinct feeling you’re being vague because you don’t plan to) those numbers aren’t by a long shot the only metric we use measuring the economy.

    In fact a lot of ways “the economy” is measured doesn’t take into account things the average citizen cares about, like cost of living etc. hence my use of the widespread pejorative "rich peoples yacht money
