And I don't think we're doing great, just to be clear.
But I understand that the way you put that out there.
From a macro perspective, the U.S.
is doing great.
Does that explain enough of this or not?
I think it matters in the sense that there's recency bias.
Like you mentioned in the 70s, and most people don't remember when they couldn't afford a mortgage for their house because the rates were like a 10%.
And so now when they were- Often higher.
So when they were basically nothing, right?
And then suddenly they hit five, six, seven, that feels bad.
And the fact that this is the broad affordability thing
after Americans have been taught that you don't need to worry about inflation for decades.
I think it's relevant.
I think it is a point.
I think the fact that Trump began his State of the Union by pointing out that there was a gas station in Iowa that had gas for under $2 a gallon and people go and they gas up their SUVs
And they do it every week and they know what that costs.
It's a very specific price point.
And then suddenly it's $4 a gallon.
That feels very, very different to them.
So I think it is a real data point.
