All conservatives hear is:

unemployment has been dropping like a rock from its peak

That's all it takes for them to think, "wow, they're doing a great job!" Even when austerity measures mean they can't feed their families. It seems like it's true no matter where you go in the world.

That’s all it takes for them to think, “wow, they’re doing a great job!” Even when austerity measures mean they can’t feed their families.

Conservatives think that is doing a great job. Their economic Platonic ideal is serfdom.
