The media is owned by billionaires so they don't want to talk about it because if they did voters would demand action.

We already know the current administration is fudging the numbers or just plain not reporting them and we know why.

Take away the spending on AI and we are in a massive recession that even all the fudged and hidden numbers in the world couldn't hide. And you can't hide it from your pocketbook we all feel it.

Even moderation ought not to be practiced to excess.
