    Yeah as @bobs_monkey@lemmy.ee says.

    The whole discussion on the economy is sorta bipolar. Voters care about (A)inflation. But our whole interpretation of successful capatalism depends on (B)growth. Add to that the enviromental desire to reduce ©waste. And the only way corps can achive B without selling more products leading to C. Is A.

    This leads to a media that can portray any situation as bad news. Except as they are funded via advertising they also need growth. Meaning there ability to sell shit requirs appealing to an audience that hates A. While ruling on the cuases of A.

    Really the only answer. Don’t trust any of the arseholes.
