I’m thinking even for cases of like shrinkflation.
I saw an article about potentially cheaper RAM here, so it got me curious if things ever really get better on occasion.

it always amazes me how many people buy into the neocon garbage that Carter was a bad president. Dude was a nuclear submariner, helped cleanup a nuclear disaster, built houses with his hands, and his biggest crime to them? he cancelled the B-1 bomber when it became painfully obvious the stealth programs were going to eclipse it’s usefulness.
Reagan got elected on treason with iran, and lies about the B-1.
4 years later he was talking about the amount of money the pentagon was spending on ‘costumes’ as he slid into dementia.
Carter didn’t piss and moan, just went on building houses with his hands for 30+ more years.
Carter was also the last president to treat the American people like adults.
that’s insightful; so much of reaganism was ‘let daddy take care of things and don’t worry your pretty little head about ww3’.
I remember reading his malais speech and thinking that the American people were a bunch of babies for trashing him over it.
I’d heard this mentioned but it was before my time, upon reading it… holy shit, america, this guy described problems like an adult and you freaked the fuck out and went reagan.
jfc
Yep, the idea that Americans thought Carter was a terrible president bad had me embarrassed since I was in high school.
it just says so much when they tell you who they think the good ones were.
like, so many of them still idolize trump, and he’s a moron.
Carter was the last good president NOT “made for TV”.
Trump is the first “made for internet” president
never thought about it that way but valid. yep.
Carter brought the Iran situation on himself by himself.

That article repeatedly points out the shit-sandwich geopolitical and local political situation with Iran has been going back to Kennedy.
Is it bullshit petroleum company induced meddling and related crimes? For sure. Does it mean landing in Carter’s lap means he eats the whole sandwich? I don’t agree. YMMV.
The whole sandwich is not for Carter, but the part about handing over the country to Islamists.
and yet, instead of holding the responsible parties - war hawks, petroleum companies, the bomb-bomb-bomb-iran (barbara ann) caucus, who you know are directly connected to it, you say shit like "carter for handling over the country to islamists’
fascinating.
keep grinding your anti-carter ax, I’m sure it makes you very popular with the youts
In that sense, no president is responsible because they always are just figureheads.
In any case, if the US hadn’t mingled in Iran there would have been no hostage crisis, and no islamistic regime.
sure thing bud
