Why might there be hundreds of thousands of fewer people in the workforce post-COVID? Must be laziness caused by all those thousands of free dollars people are still riding high on! No other explanation I can think of!

    And if they don't do that, it's presented as evidence of how irrational and mathematically illiterate the peasants are. They're absolutely desperate to convince people that anyone pointing out how most people are struggling to pay for food and housing is spouting propaganda designed to mislead the benighted citizens who are too stupid to know how well they're doing. It's amazingly arrogant, and it's not going to work (but that's not going to stop them from trying).
