Oh he gave taxpayer money to big Pharma? What a saint! What about the downplaying of the virus to save the stock market. What about massive selloffs by politicians and his circle with inside information about the severity of the disease? What about censoring America's top doctors advice? What about refusing to send financial aid to democrat run states?
Anyone who thinks that measure of an economy is "good" doesn't understand how economies work. Home prices increased 20% and wages increased 4%. There was a multi trillion dollar deficit. Inequality has soared and the lower and middle classes buying power has tanked. But Bezos got more money and the stock market is up so time to celebrate!
