    All conservatives hear is:

    unemployment has been dropping like a rock from its peak

    That’s all it takes for them to think, “wow, they’re doing a great job!” Even when austerity measures mean they can’t feed their families. It seems like it’s true no matter where you go in the world.

      Conservatives think that is doing a great job. Their economic Platonic ideal is serfdom.
