Bruh, we already have fake numbers and you have to go looking for the "real" stuff: https://www.shadowstats.com/
Note, that it dates back to 1980.

Ha no way. An actual economist reviewed shadowstats and found that the average 8th grader knew more math than they did given the amount of errors involved in their numbers. But keep on with your tinfoil hat and the fake statistics that our government produces.

Oooh this brought out a high-level handler. Why is shadowstats so sensitive to you guys?

Sorry you don’t know economics or math! Don’t worry, I’m sure you can google around to find some Russian talking points that explain why data produced by USG economists and civil servants is false.

Economists are just another enemy to MAGA. If won’t make any difference, though because the market will respond. They can’t manipulate it forever.

What actual facts/statistics? The govt Bureau of Labor Statistics numbers you democrats overestimate and publish on purpose as " good news", only to revise the numbers by gigantic amounts months later when no one is watching?

Get rid of these dishonest govt organizations. They're partisan hacks.

You’re 100% wrong. BLS doesn’t fake numbers, period. They take great pride in not being political. They do not say the glass is half full or have empty; they say an 8 ounce glass has 4 ounces of water. They explain why they revise numbers and have always done this. Just because you are unethical at your job doesn’t mean BLS is!

No pesky questions on inflation data anymore! We will be the country of blissful ignorance (for the rich anyway).

It deeply bothers me that people support Trump and Musk in their dismantling the government. People clearly do not know what government does and how it serves this country. It’s appalling.

Well, that's one way to reduce the price of eggs...

He’s always complained that the BLS numbers are fake, here’s his chance to make that a reality. ALWAYS projection with this guy.

+1 And so we approach the status of the USA becoming a banana republic. Get rid of the scientists, cripple the universities, and stop collecting the data that could undermine the authoritarian narrative that Trump is best.

Trump disbands 2 committees that advise the Labor Dept on official Economic statistics. They hit the Technical Advisory Cmte and the Data User Advisory Committee, both of which bring economists and statisticians together to advise the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The BLS tracks the labor market.

They claimed DOGE, but the Committee members don't get paid, so the costs were minimum.

Two other Committees - the Federal Economic Statistics Advisory Cmte and the Bureau of Economic Analysis Advisory Cmtes were also disbanded.

They are going to ruin the economy but will be able to lie about it b/c they are no longer tracking and statistics.

Can we just agree that DOGE has NOTHING to do with cutting costs.
