You have to be a piss-poor economist to have not seen that coming. You put people out of work for a year, gave out free money, let people remain on unemployment for months, made it impossible for women with school-age children to work outside the home, fucked up the supply chain, and took away people's jobs for not complying with vaccines mandates.

I'm shit at math and have only the foggiest idea of how economics work, but even I saw that shit coming.
