‘Ink-Stained Wretch’ at NYT Claims ‘Good Times Are Right Now’ for ‘Tens of Millions of Americans'
NewsBusters ^ | 5/10/2022 | Joseph Vazquez

It’s the Roaring ‘20s once more. That’s what The New York Times claimed as high gas prices, 40-year record inflation and a border crisis dominate the lives of ordinary Americans.

“For Tens of Millions of Americans, the Good Times Are Right Now,” claimed the newspaper. Times technology writer David Streitfield pretended Americans haven’t seen an economy this glorious in over 50 years. “For the 158 million who are employed, prospects haven’t been this bright since men landed on the moon.”

Those prospects are so “bright” that CNN reported total compensation costs — which “includes the wages employers pay plus health, retirement and other benefits for civilian workers” — declined “3.7% over the past 12 months ending in March.” CNN summarized that news in one sentence: "Skyrocketing inflation is robbing Americans of their raises."

I don’t understand why that stoopid newspaper is still in business. You’ve gotta be pretty dumb to believe what they write.
