And there is a party that doesn't. And the country is not seeing lines for basic goods and professionals and the educated class are not being forced out of the country and we don't have a majority of officials pocketing money and you're free to express disapproval, etc. etc.

We're not a basket case economy in any stretch of the imagination. Compare and contrast.
