For years, our own Vettebigot was the "gold standard" for failed political predictions. All good things must come to an end, and Queerbait has claimed the "Nostradumbass" award from Vettebigot, ending Vetty's six year reign
From September 2014
Quite dizzying indeed!
Since then, we've seen continual UPWARD revisions of employment numbers, and now both the labor force participation rate is showing improvement (more folks looking for work) AND wages are now outpacing inflation.
Let's all take a moment to applaud the Vettebigot for his incredibly long run and to congratulate Queerbait on his ascension to the apex of failed political predictions.
