  2. First time I scored 100% on a quiz here, and it is because of the numerous failures. I expected the economics term to be the “Misery Index” which I recall as being the sum of the high inflation and the high intetest rates. Worst part was the made up oil crisis and gas shortages. He wasn’t a bad person like the evil bastards crowding DC now, he just couldn’t think about the actual long term results of his ideas. Thanks for the site, Joe, don’t let discouragement drive away your passion and enthusiasm.
