dear economists, if all your economic markers say the economy is going great yet ordinary people keep saying the economy is the worst they've ever seen, maybe get some new economic indicators instead of scratching your head and wondering why the people are so "out of touch" with reality

To make a living as an economist, most have to be born to wealthy parents. Their lives are great and the cooked numbers look awesome. These people have never had to look at a price tag or do any real labor in their lives.

The world is perfect in their eyes as it is today, and the numbers back it. And of course.... Wealth distribution has no affect on the world according to their best theories, and is not worth researching.
