i dunno, it’s like we put our economy in a temporary coma at some point, huh?

Exactly. In 2020 we had a president tell us we were going to go into shut down for 2 weeks. 10 months later when he left the White House that shite was still shut down.

There was no plan to help things open up. By the summertime in 2020 it felt like there was no end in sight. The lack of leadership that was shown made people feel hopeless. The economy is still suffering from what happened in 2020.

And everyone can say what they want, but oil companies took a hit because people were not going anywhere. Not going to work, not going out, not flying anywhere.. They had to make up for those losses and the only way to do that is increase prices.

I know I am stupid and I have no idea what I am talking about, but lets pretend for a second that I did.. And for that second you would be right.
