That's a fair point.
But those are the precedents, those the antecedent conditions that then lead to a population that is mostly male, that's doing pretty well economically.
But and they're not all white.
Some of them are Hispanic.
Some of them are black.
They're living in poverty.
Poor urban areas and rural areas that are doing, you know, again, really feel very differently and are going down compared to where they were.
And they're the ones that are voting for Trump not once, but twice.
And the idea that this can be driven by something that is vibe based as opposed to real antecedent conditions, I reject that.
But once you have that, there is a flywheel.
Once you have that, suddenly those other, the algorithmic conditions really matter.
And here I want to really get into the macro structural for a second, which is that I had this, the first big book that I wrote back in 2006 was called The J Curve.
