    I’m saying the polling opinion of the economy doesn’t mean shit outside of political campaigns. They’re more tied to party affiliation than anything to do with reality. It’s no better than the youtube polls telling me 90% of people are voting for Harris.

      Ah, I see, so you’re saying you understand the reality of each of these Americans better than they understand their own reality? You have an intimate knowledge of each and everyone of these people’s personal financial situation? Like some kind of omniscient god?

        Oh you know everyone’s suffering? Just you alone knows the plight of the common man?

          I don’t know what each of these people is going through, which is why I think this poll is so important. If you want to know how people feel, you ask them. These people are telling us how they feel about the economy. If you want to know why they feel the way they feel, you’ll need to ask them more questions, not just construct a conspiracy theory to explain their answer and justify your indifference to it.
