Obama got people excited about healthcare reform. Biden got people excited about student debt relief. Clinton tried to get people excited about a female president and Harris centered her campaign around running against Trump.
Social programs get people excited.
The market is not the economy.
The market is a measure of how much wealth is being extracted from the working class.
If that’s what the economy is then it will never matter how good it is, because the working class people still can’t afford shit.
