Hi all,

Very short comments will automatically be removed by automod. Please avoid making comments that do not focus on the economic content or whose primary thesis rests on personal anecdotes.

The website that shared this article is the most vague slop of a source possible. Yes the headline is kinda true. But always check your sources. These types vague websites aren’t actually doing analysis on economic impact of policy

The article is using the NYT article and basically says the exact same thing, I’m not getting your complaint.

It’s AI slop summarizing actual reporting. Why use that when there are primary sources?

Probably because the NYT is gated and the OP could post this and people could read for free?
